The stages on this website have now been rearranged to reflect the order in which they were shot.

Because of the snow or mud on the range all five scenarios will be shot on one stage set up. We will set up close to the covered bench rests so that the gun racks will be available and we won't need gun carts. We'll have the fire going in the clubhouse so it will be warm and toasty.
