Aircooled6racer Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Eric you are going to love that area. I lived there for 10 years. Plenty of nice ranges and if you want to shoot long range rifle there is some places near there that have 800-1000 yard ranges Hello: We bought a house there already. Lots of real trees and it rains. I still have to get there and find all the great places to shoot. Looking forward to it. Kids have to finish school so hopefully by June I will be shooting.

NJGlockGirl Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I still have to get there and find all the great places to shoot. Not to Hi-Jack the post - but -- Welcome to the area! We moved from NJ to Georgia a year ago, and love it here - the people are exceptional, and, the weather is great! (Besides Rifle), I thought that it may help to know match dates and range locations - Here are the USPSA Ranges in the 'ATL' area - 1. South River Gun Club - Covington - 1st Sunday of every month 2. Cherokee Gun Club - Gainesville - 2nd Saturday of the month 3. River Bend Gun Club - Dawsonville - 4th Saturday of the Month There is also: *Steel Challenge on the 3rd Saturday of the month at Cherokee Gun Club (Gainesville) *Atlanta 3 Gun on the 3rd Sunday of EVERY month - at South River Gun Club (Covington) forgive me if I'm missing something - we still have yet to find ALL of the events in the area ourselves - these are some of the more 'popular' match dates, for the greater ATL area ALL of these matches can be found on Facebook - as well as the Area 6 Facebook page, for more links to areas outside of ATL Hope it may help you out when you arrive in June!

Aircooled6racer Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 NJGlockGirl: I appreciate the info. We will be living in Alpharetta so it looks like some of those clubs will be close. I am also looking for shotgun clubs as well if you know of any? Not sure about 3-gun since I have not shot that in some time since we lived in Corpus Christi TX.

NJGlockGirl Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 While I myself don't shoot Skeet or Trap, my husband does - and all three clubs have pretty nice shot gun fields. I am not sure about the schedule though - but they do at least offer it up for those that like shooting shotgun! Here are the links to the three clubs. And as far as memberships, South River in Covington has immediate membership available (family members are all on the same membership). Cherokee has a pretty long wait list right now,,,, and I'm not 100% sure about River Bend up in Dawsonville - we are a little ways from that one - and it wasn't feasible to join from where we live - but its a beautiful club - and great for USPSA! (all three clubs offer matches open to the public of all sorts of shooting sports). I figured I'd give you the websites so you can see for yourself! If you need anymore help, or have questions feel free to ask, just about anybody on here from Georgia is more than happy to help - nice crowd for sure!http://www.southrivergunclub.com/ (Covington) http://www.cherokeegunclub.org (Gainesville) /http://www.rbgc.org/ (Dawsonville) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a matt Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 They still have 229 openings. Friday, Saturday am & pm have slots open. It's is only about 1/3 full as of Sat am, the 3rd. I would sign up if I'm wanting to shoot this one. Who knows it might take off like A6 and then you are on the always fun waiting list. Good luck all.

sperman Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 There is a long gravel road, but you could park at registration and I'm sure someone would give you a ride down to the bays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) I would take my vtwin to the match and it has been lowered. So just about any bike from chopper to Aprilia would be fine. Park up near stage 1. I'm sure you will be ok unless you are bringing the bike club with you. Lol Edited May 5, 2014 by a matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
