Thumbs up Florida picnic & get to gether

A date has been set up for the first annual USACARRY.COM Florida get together!


Sat Nov 14th at Tenoroc Shooting Sports & Training in Lakeland, Fl



Here is a quick run down. Or more info check their web site. Tenoroc Shooting Sports > Home
I would like to get a rough count so email me you RSVP at sdf2_2000@yahoo.com or post something here!
I will be posting some more info and details.

They will have food venders on site or you can use the picnic area and bring your own.


Pistol ranges

Two pistol ranges, each with 15 covered shooting positions. Each shooting position consists of a fixed height bench allowing shooters about 5 board feet of bench space for spotting scopes, ammo and other shooting accessories. Benches to the rear of the shooters are provided for spectators and longer gun case storage.
Rifle range
100-yard rifle range offers 24 covered shooting positions. Each shooting position consists of an adjustable height bench for right and left handed shooters as well as 10 square feet of bench space for spotting scopes, ammo and other shooting accessories. Benches to the rear of the shooters are provided for spectators and longer gun case storage.
Sporting Clays course

Fully automated with Lincoln traps and Claymate target counters. Shooters determine which targets are thrown and when by the push of a button. Individual shooters are easily accommodated through the delay mechanism built into this system. You will know at a glance how many targets you have shot during your round. (please note! This range will be available after 12:00)

Archery Range

Elevated range is the ONLY wheelchair accessible elevated range in the state. This 50-foot ramp offers you the experience of shooting from a treestand without the worry of falling out! There are multiple heights to shoot from ranging from 6 feet to almost 10 feet off the ground!

3-D walk through range consists of 20 Mkenzie 3-D targets set at various distances (up to 55 yards) in wooded and open field scenarios. Each target is placed in front of a backstop to minimize arrow loss on missed shots.

Practice range consists of two firing points shooting at paper targets at measured distances of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 yards. This range is also wheelchair accessible and all shooting is done from a concrete pad. All targets are placed on covered backstops over 4 feet wide and 7 feet tall.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Daily Range Fees
Single Range - $10.00 Members - $5.00
Two Ranges - $12.00 Members - $5.00
.43 Per Target For Sporting Clays Members .30 Per Target

I was the range today and checked it out. Saturday was chosen because I thought most everyone could make it that day. The bad side is that is a busy day for them. There is a BBQ vender onsite on the weekends. I got a sample. Very good! I will be posting a form that they want filled out, that way we can fill it out ahead of time to make things go a little smoother at check in. I will be also posting a map for D/L with directions. They have restrooms and will have some tables for us to use as a meeting place. Close by is a fishing area that will be open for a $3.00 fee.

I will need a count for the owner, that way if a large number is coming she can plan for it. So say by Nov 1st let me know how many in your group.
I am sure I have not thought of everything so if there is something you think of, please post it here and I will tend to it.
I am hoping we can make this a yearly event. If we can get the attendance up. They would close it down for the day and we could have the run of the place.

More info will be coming.
You can Email at sdf2_2000@yahoo.com

Here are the gun ranges in the same area.. I know nothing about any of them..

This place looks interesting though.. It states they have a picnic area and provide training..
Looks like it's in the middle of no where, which might be nice..

Lakeland isn't that far from me so unless something major comes up I'll be there.
