Wisconsin Range Report - The Firearms Forum

gvw3 · 05-21-2012, 04:35 PM

We were the guests of my daughters boss Tommy at his farm in Wisconsin the weekend. We shot clays most of the day but found time to shot our other guns also.

I also brought my grandson Cody and Grand Daughter Grace. They have never shot anything before. My son (known of the forum as bacon buddy has never shot out of an indoor range.

Tommy's cousin Pauly has been doing this for years and showed us how it's done.

I didnt think I could get my shotgun away from my grandson Cody. He was able to hit 3 out of 3 in a short time. Pretty good for some one that never shot a gun before.

My son buddy now loves shooting clays. He was able to try some long rang shots from his 308 also.

It took some convincing but we were able to get my grand daughter to shoot my sons Buck mark and my Beretta.

Thanks everyone. When we left the farm we drove 4 or 5 miles to Tommys house and counted 5 dear's on the way. This is like heaven for some Chicago suburban people like us.
