Toranado, SASS # 58447 52 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) Hats off to the team at Paradise Pass! Been to many ranges in the U.S. and this is one of the best. Team there really cares about the shooters and putting on a quality match and have improved this place every year over the past decade and a half. (Plus it's about two hours door to door!!) Haven't missed an Indiana state shoot there, Including a few Indiana/Illinois state shoots! Have my hotel already booked and will definitely be attending!.

Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L 595 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) CONGRATS to Paradise Pass!! I hope to make it - would be my first EOT! I did get to watch the '96 and '97 ones back in California - always dreamed to be able to participate. GG ~ Edited February 1 by Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Bill Burt 3,382 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Assuming we're able to get registered before the match fills up the Iron Cowboy and Kid Flash will be coming out of 'retirement' to join the fun. Lethal Lizzie may compete too. I guess I need to set aside about a case of shotgun ammo and 1,200 rounds of 38 and 22. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marshal Fire, SASS 10064 128 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Have tried the registration on the SASS web site. Keep getting a not found message. Has anyone had any luck or is it my computer. I am sure the office is in a scramble to make the switch over and of course that is the occasion that the computer bugs always tend to happen.

Krazy Kajun 813 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Just secured a camping spot....will get my registration in when it opens. This will be my first EOT. It is 1,450 miles one way from my house to Founder's Ranch so I've never been before. So glad that SASS corporate FINALLY moved this event, at least for one year, someplace more easterly.

If you are not seeing conventioneer, it must not be offered this year. Many adjustments have had to be made this past year for so many restrictions...sad, but just happy to have them at best. Hope you make it out ,at minimum to socialize and have the experience of what EOT has to offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maddog McCoy SASS #5672 259 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) I will be signing up next week. I was 2 hours from there for a long time and now about 5 hours or less away. I think the last time I was there I was shooting a monthly match for practice before I left for Winter Range. Guess I better get busy, Got to find a camper and fix one of the golf carts I bought last year. See you all soon.

Cassalong Hopidy 176 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Congratulations to C.C. Top and Paradise Pass! This will be a great shoot and overall experience. The range is beautiful, the weather should be nice, and I know Deuce and Lassiter will give us a great match. Can't wait. I'll be among those jamming the lines to register Monday morning. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Lake Charles Gun Club in Lake Charles LA, who we, the Up the Creek Gang, leases land on their property for our cowboy town (which we now are in the long process of rebuilding after it was destroyed by Hurricane Laura), currently has in their store SPP priced at $200/1000 or $25/100.

Renegade Roper 24 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Does anyone know if they charge for camping at Paradise Pass and if so how much? I couldn't find anything about camping on their website.

Roper From past experience, all camping was dry. Lots of room in a big grass field. Not sure where CC will put the camping because a lot of parking will also be needed. Knowing the Pass crew, they've got a good plan in place. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like it or not, it's not just the price they paid for what they are selling, it's the price they will have to pay for what they have to buy to replace it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
