Assassin Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 There aren't many places that would be comfortable in the later part of June. That would eliminate the entire SW and SE.

That would eliminate the entire SW and SE. Georgia doesn't get really hot until July and August. I doubt it's here though. I can think of two ranges that could potentially handle EOT, and I'm pretty sure one of them hasn't been approached. Not sure about the other. Hopefully we'll know soon.....

It's probably Ben Avery in Phoenix, which would make sense. I do hope it's one of those nice green states in the southeast though. In June some of those green states will be very hot.

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Is the Riviera still open? We could shoot the entire EOT there with wax bullets! Probably shouldn't take over a month.

Rafe Conager SASS #56958 Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 Way to far away! Glad I had a refundable hotel room in New Mexico. 2021 was supposed to be better! Thought Biden was supposed to cure Covid!

It will be nice to get there in one short day instead of 2 long days. Randy
Singin' Sue 71615 Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 It's about 22 hours for us...we have traveled the 13 hours to Bar 3 for a weekend shoot, so I can manage the extra miles for World Championships.
Rafe Conager SASS #56958 Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 1,806 miles from Tucson Az. about a 27 hour drive! Nope.
Captain Bill Burt Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 That's great news. Google tells me it's 675 miles to get there. Heck I can make that in 8 hours. The Burt's are going to EOT for the first time! I've already reserved an AirBnB about 20 minutes from the range.

My body can handle a 7-8 hour drive with a day in-between driving and shooting, just can't handle 2-3 days of driving. Tough choice trying to find a spot hospitable tp EOT! Not faulting SASS they are in a hard spot! Can't please everyone and I'm sure Misty and the gang didn't want the last EOT at founders to go out like this! Everyone enjoy EOT! Rafe

Smoken D Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 I first thought, what the where? I live 5 miles from Warsaw, Missouri Which for some would be on the way to Warsaw, Indiana

That was the journey for us in Maryland to EOT at Founders Ranch. We had planned on EOT at Founders Ranch this year, but have already switched Hotel reservations to IN. It's only 9 1/2 hours from home to Paradise Pass.
David Cardin Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 I’m just getting into the game but recently lived in Warsaw, IN. Is EOT a spectator friendly event? I would love to go back up and check it out.
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 1,247 miles..... Gonna have to be another time Regards Gateway Kid
Black Hills Barb Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Our group has gone from 2 nights on the road to just a one day 8 hour drive. We have reserved a beautiful lake front house and are looking forward to the new surroundings. We will miss our usual stop at the Big Texan and the overnight stay in their kitchy hotel rooms though. Oh and the margaritas. I will definitely miss their margaritas.

Eye and Ear protection is a must, and sometimes there is a small fee, but otherwise you will likely be welcome. Until they release the applications, it's impossible to know, but they may also have a "Conventioneer" entry that gets you into the social events as well.

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Wow... Indiana. Coming from New England, that's a lot less far away than New Mexico. It should be a much easier drive. I'll have to give this serious consideration,
Hells Comin Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 U all know why there's no bat in Indiana? The Mosquito ate all.

Bucky Buckskin Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 It will be a much better drive for us south east region pards who have had to make the long haul
Judge Gardner Posted February 1, 2021 Posted February 1, 2021 Nice to see EOT is going to in a place that is green and not brown dust.
