Trap

The winter season is well upon us. It is hoped every member had a great Christmas & a safe New Year.

The trap program returns this January; Sunday the 27th & Sunday, February 3rd. These are the dates for the WNY Winter League that brings a great number of shooters to our facilities. The Young Guns, once again will dazzle the shooters with epicurean delights from our kitchen. The cost of material will be covered by the Trap Committee once again. Trap help will come from our shooters, bar help will be needed. If any amounts of snow occurs, any and ALL help will be needed the Saturdays before the shoots to insure the ability to gain access to the trap fields. These dates are literally a crap shoot weather wise. NO ACCESS - NO SHOOT!

After a short period of shut down, the regular shooting season will commence on Sunday, March 24th. Shooting sign up times remain the same. Sunday; 9:00am - 12:00 noon & Thursday; 6:00pm - 8:00pm. Teams, individual, new, old & practice shooters are all welcome. As of now, prices will still be $4.00 per round with a member having the ability to purchase a shooting card covering 10 rounds for $35.00. Such a DEAL!!! Targets will be ordered late spring or early summer. Depending on price of targets, it may be necessary to change the cost of shooting.

Questions, remarks (smart or otherwise), volunteers -649-4651.

Thank You! Trap Person: Ernie

Trap

At this date, the BVCS Fall Trap League is in it's 4th week. We have 4 teams with 35 shooters signed up. For a change, weather has not been a factor on our shooting days. 6 weeks to go - maybe I should not have mentioned the good weather. Could curse us!!! Competition has been good. Some experienced shooters have only missed a few targets for all they have shot so far & the newer shooters are gaining in experience, confidence & target busting capabilities.

We always hope to see more activity with our trap endeavors since I & the more than capable volunteers our club has are here to service those that choose to shoot at BVCS.

Instruction & advice is available to anyone that wants to ask for it. There is still time to become involved in our league or just to come out & practice your sharpshooting abilities.

I would like to thank the volunteers that make up the trap program & the Club in general for the support I get with the trap program. Without these people, BVCS would not have the limited success that we enjoy. Thank you ALL!!!

Trap Person; Ernie

What's Happening @ Your Club?

2019 BVCS Dinner

The club voted to have our annual Dinner & Chinese Auction in the future moved to the 1st Saturday in April (unless a future Easter conflict). The weather has been an issue for cleaning one night & committing to a caterer etc.

The plan for 2019 is: Swearing in of officers will be at the January 2019 meeting and our club Dinner & Chinese Auction will be April 6, 2019.

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

As this is written, the Spring League is in the middle of the 5th week. Mother Nature has NOT been very kind to us for the early parts of our league. We've had days with no shooters & days with 3 or 4 brave souls coming out to brave the cold, snow & rains. Sunday, April 23rd was our 1st banner day, not only with shooters, but with bright blue skies & little wind. A great relief! Many came out for the 1st time this season to enter & participate in our league, along with more of the faithful shooters. As of now there are 34 paid up contestants, & with better weather ahead hopefully more to come. The trap committee is giving dispensation to those not having shot the required number of scores due to the inclement weather. So, with 5 weeks remaining, come on out & get your guns dusted off & have yourself some fun.

Shooting hours remain: Sunday; 9:00 am - 12:00 noon & Thur.; 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Thanks; Trap Person; Ernie
