Flexmoney Posted July 5, 2001 Share Posted July 5, 2001 I also have a Bucket Boss with a seat/lid. Comes in handy. I am thinking about using a little red wagon. the kind with the big tires (when my girfriend shoots too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Chevalier Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 I like the little red wagon idea. I notice that some of the god shooters show up with carts and buckets and all sorts of shrevery to haul it around for them. Maybe a motor on the wagon. Like a 440 with a six pack. And a chain gun. And a beverage fridge. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 I want to shoot in Ross' squad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 At one of the local matches the range is large enough that you can drive from pit to pit in your car. I shoot the way that purists play golf ---- no wheeled transportation, and I hump my own bag. (Of course my size makes it difficult for me to get in the car with a gunbelt on.........Sigh, maybe it's time for that diet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 Just rip out the front seat and sit in the back. I still like the caddy idea. I shot a shotgun match last year with 200 rnd minimum. Now that was a PIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted July 7, 2001 Share Posted July 7, 2001 I am going to shoot a match on Sunday. The Match Director had a 4-wheeler with a wagon on the back last month. Everybody in the squad just threw their bag in. ------ Sorry, I guess that is getting off topic.

Ross Chevalier Posted July 8, 2001 Share Posted July 8, 2001 Kyle it would be a pleasure to shoot with you anytime. Chriss, is PIA the same as PITA? Perhaps we have found another Canadian translation. Or it just could be a squid thing. Of course we don't really have jarheads in the GWN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted July 8, 2001 Share Posted July 8, 2001 Same translation or actually Pain in arm. Damn that ammo was heavy, especially after 200+ 12 gauge rounds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Boit Posted July 20, 2001 Share Posted July 20, 2001 Pro-grip MUST be in the shooting bag. As well as spare parts, I always have a couple of replacement springs. Something to drink and something to eat. DVC Julien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orr Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 If I expect rain I bring along some plastic bags used by dry cleaners. Before tacking the target onto the stand I put it inside the bag so it doesn't get soaked in the rain. Picked this tip somewhere on the Web I don't remember where now. I live in the tropics so I also bring at least 2 quarts of drinking water. Then I bring an extra shirt to change into after shooting. I don't want that lead dust clinging to my body longer than necessary. -Orr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted August 3, 2001 Share Posted August 3, 2001 I've seen clear plastic garbage bags used for the same purpose many times. The slang term is "target condoms." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Bone Posted August 12, 2001 Share Posted August 12, 2001 Not all of this is in my bag. Quite a few items are left in the truck. But since I have to drive a good distance to some matches I had to make a list. There's nothing that'll ruin your day like driving all that way and find out you've forgotten something. Even though you may not need that item. Just the fact that you've forgotten it will play on your mind and cause a misalignment of the planets.

Shooter Grrl Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 I have a BIG GREEN wagon - holds an extra large custom made Hafner bag (who knows what he's got in there!), my li'l blue dillon (baby wipes, ear plugs, ammo, antibacterial hand lotion and a first aid kit - geez, I am a GRRL ) and an ice chest! And the best part is - I don't have to pull it around the range! PS - BIRD - how is your wife?

bird Posted September 6, 2001 Author Share Posted September 6, 2001 Hi Shooter Grrl, My wife is busting my chops about shooting too many competitions and not spending enough home time, so she is back to normal...LOL I am new to competition and it is very "habit forming" but it is oh, so much fun, I'm hooked. I keep changing the contents in my range bag and have a "spare" bag in my Durango and of course a cooler with lots of food and water... I am starting to eye my kids little red wagon though...LOL If only I could fit a hot shower in my SUV, now that would be nice..he he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
