What's Happening @ Your Club?

Open Pistol Shooting

Tuesday nights; doors open @ 7pm. Members’ range fee is $4 and nonmembers’ fee is $8 per night. All are welcome but we encourage frequent non-members to become members and support the club. Please be aware that non-members must fill out a one-time waiver. Forms are on hand at the range.

Trap

The Fall Trap League is in the 9th week with 43 paid shooters. The trap party will be held October 24th starting at 11 am & lasting till???? Hopefully a good time will be had by all. In the meantime, the Hamburg team, once again, leads the league in wins. This seems to be a regular occurrence, but success come to those that are the better.

In the number of shooters previously mentioned; 43, 40 are men & 3 ladies. It seems we lack any youthful shooters! I find this difficult since there is an abundance of Young Guns participating in their programs as youth members of BVCS. This has been an ongoing situation that young shooters never seem to gravitate to the BVCS Leagues. If youths came out to shoot leagues, I'm sure instruction & discounted shooting could be incorporated in the program. Maybe Spring?

We have not heard much about the WNY Winter League coming to BVCS. This would be about the last week of November & the 1st week of December if we host this league. If not hosting the WNY League, shooting will be discontinued until the Spring League starts in March or April of 2022 at the conclusion of our Fall League.

As always, I would like to thank the trap volunteers for their hard work & dedication. Also, thanks to the BVCS Board for support.

Pistol Fall League

Dear pistol shooters,

I am planning on starting the fall league on September 30, 2021 with the first relay beginning at 6pm, a second starting at 7pm and a third relay starting at 8pm. Tuesday will be open shooting only with Thursday reserved for league shooting. Each week two national matches per relay will be shot for score at the 25 yard line. You can shoot one gun (22cal.) or two guns (22 cal. And c.f.) for a score each week.

Come out, have fun and shoot the league. It will be great to see you again. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 337-3555 or e-mail cwfjr45@gmail.com.
