About

The
club is located on
the west side of State Route 534, 10 miles south of I-90
or 2 miles north of
US Route 6, in Hartsgrove, OH in Ashtabula County. The street address is:
4323 State Route 534, Hartsgrove, OH 44085-9540.
For those of you with a GPS receiver, go to N41 37.884 W80 57.703 or check Google.
Activities
available to the members: rifle ranges (100 and 200/300 yards), two 30 yard
pistol ranges, trap and skeet ranges, 5-Stand, dog training/Field Trials, archery range, picnic pavilion, camping, fishing, hunting, education and conservation.
Target Stands
There are four (4) new Target Stands for the Pistol Bays.
Here is how to setup the target stands:
You can staple your targets to the cardboard. So bring a
staple gun with staples. You can also bring cardboard and 1 x 2" sticks,
because you never know when the last guy to use them couldn't hit the broad side
of a barn, but he could hit the sticks every time!
Here is how to place the target stands on the range
Notice how the bullet will pass through the cardboard and
then impact on the back berm.
Not on the ground or over the berm!
We will NO longer tolerate members placing cardboard boxes or
other targets on the ground. This has created many ruts and furrows in the
ground and this is dangerous to those using the bays. It is very easy to turn an
ankle when walking over these ruts.
July 27-29, 2012
for youths age 10 - 15
Trap & Skeet
Open Sunday's from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM
Occasionally, the clay target venues might be closed on a
Sunday for unanticipated reasons. For instance, we were closed two days in 2007
because of storm related power failures. We were also closed two days because
the snow was so bad, we could not get the plow to the clubhouse. If you have any
question whether or not the club is open for shooting, we suggest you call to
confirm the club is open before making the drive.
We need front desk volunteers, some Sundays have no front desk coverage. If we do not have volunteers signed up, then we will not
be open that Sunday. If you want to shoot, please sign up to cover the front desk. I will not continue to man the front desk when individuals that are signed up do not show up or do not have the courtesy to call and say they cannot make it on such and such a date. We have a large number of shooters and the numbers are growing. New members / new shooters
-- Please sign up to take a few Sundays on the front desk or five stand this year and next.
Sign up in the book at the clubhouse.

Jim Majoros at 440-354-6358.

5-Stand
5-Stand is a variation of Sporting Clays
shooting. Each round consists of 25 targets being shot from 5 different shooting
stations. We have seven traps to throw a variety of different types of target
presentations.
We need more volunteers to assist with running the
5 stand. Please volunteer!
Sign up
in the book in clubhouse or call Jim.
If we do not have volunteers, we will not
open the 5 stand.
We need volunteers and
shooters!
This is a good way to earn your work hour credits!
(if you volunteer to run the 5-Stand)
Please sign up to work one or two Sundays. Sign up sheets are
on the desk in the main clubhouse. If you are an old or new member an would like
to volunteer, but do not feel qualified to open and run the 5-Stand, we will
provide training.
