    Just for fun, I will share failsafe directions for the navigationally challenged. I know that this is not the most efficient way (but it's not THAT inefficient), but offers very little if any chance for a wrong turn. Take State Route 59 to Brazil, north from 70, south from 36, or if you take 40 into Brazil, go north to the 4-way stop. It is the only 4-way stop on 59 anywhere near Brazil. Turn west at the stop--left if you came from 70 or 40, right if you came from 36. Drive until you get to the end of the road and turn right/north. Drive until you get to the end of the road and turn right/east. Drive to the first 4-way stop. You are there. Turn right at the stop and then right into the drive.

    For those with stronger navigation skills, please do not feel condescended upon, but I have known enough great people who are not great navigators that I felt that a foolproof set of directions may be helpful.

    Anyone bringing clay targets? I just realized I burned through all mine.

    Trying to decide whether to pack the O/U.

    If I go north from 40 to the stop. I cannot turn left and west.

    I have several dozen "MOSKEETO" clays that I'll bring.
    They are a mere 2- 3/4" in diameter.
    Thought they would present a challenge.

    From what I gathered, these things were shot at county fairs and the like. A lot of times they were shot inside large barns using .22lr shot-shells.
    That must have been something to watch.

    I and my son had a great time.
    To any one that did not attend......you missed a good one.
    This!

    It was a great time! Got to meet a few new people, and see others I hadn't seen in awhile.
    Thank you for hosting Don, and the shoot house was very cool, along with your instruction.

    I just got home. I had a fantastic time. I was great meeting a number of you all.

    Thanks to Don for hosting. Proteq is my favorite range to shoot at so it was nice to get out there again.

    I went through it with the MPX. Didn't set any records, but if they needed killing, they got shot in the face a couple times. All friendlys survived. I'd call it a win.

    What? A carbine was an option? Well, if I had known that, I would have used my MP5, rather than my Sig. I might even have gotten that last sneaky bad guy in the middle that I missed (to be fair, he had a tiny little head). Of course, according to Don, my sweeping around corners without using cover would have probably got me shot anyway. :):

    Just shows, I need to do some work on that.

    I am sorry I disrupted your spotting process. Those 2 rifles are obnoxious to bystanders (sitters :))

    Good to meet you sir.
