Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Wow....just got am email that our club, the Windy Gap Regulators, has lost our agreement for the range we have been using for 16 or 17 years. Just blows me away! I havn't shot in a few months because of shoulder issues, but sure didn't see this coming. Utah Bob and I both are members and shoot there. Sad deal.............

Utah Bob #35998 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Sucks. I guess 4 corners R&P club is the only option. I don't feel like driving to Farmington or Durango. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I have 40 acres but only about 50 feet of it is level enough for a good range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Sorry to hear this. I enjoyed the one match I shot there in 2013. Guess I waited too long for another visit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex M Rugers #6621 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Big Sage and Utah Bob , that sounds pretty harsh. Back when I used to shoot at Cortez , I remember shooting at 4 different places. Although one of them was a kind of annual that Mancos put on at the fairgrounds , and maybe shouldn't count , a one-time thing. I would have thought the club was pretty safe at the present range. Whodathunkit Good luck , Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
