Looks good from the outside. Neat and clean on the inside as well. It wasnt a 5 star, but it was very reasonable for the price |
|
|

|
Took a drive to get our first glimpse of the shooting range (in the back behind the moto-cross track) |

The white marks (calcium carbonate) shows the hardness of the water and the high water mark for years ago. The water was low, but not that low |

Stand 6. Better than the 5th station for sure. Everyone had a problem with that one! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Station 9 over the duck pond and literally over the ducks as well |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Shots are coming into you from a distance and drop quickly once in range. Break out the full chokes! |
|

|
Station 10 against the cliff. Another tough shot |
