Hello Shooters!
The match is quickly approaching and we have a few more updates.
First - THE NEW STUFF –
ALL SHOOTERS AND SPECTATORS must sign a waiver upon entering the park. Waivers for the park and the shooting club have been attached. Please print a copy and bring it with you. You will not be permitted on the range without all 3 of these forms.
The range is in a park that has a strict 15 mph speed limit. Out of courtesy to the park, the shooting club, and the rangers we ask that you follow the speed limit. Failure to observe the speed limit could result in disastrous consequences (read “Match DQ”) for not obeying the rules of the range.
Just a heads up that if you plug in the address of the range, many GPS systems will try to take you 7 miles west of Marble Falls. The range is actually 7 miles East of Marble Falls. A map and driving directions can be found at this link
RANGE DIRECTIONS. The range website is Copperheadclub.com
Food will be available on the range compliments of Foodapalooza. Menu and pricing options will follow.
ROUND COUNT – has been upped a little -plan on 140 Pistol, 140 Rifle, 15 Slugs, and 100 Shot. Course descriptions will not be released prior to the event. You can safely assume there will be one long shotgun stage.
Slings will not be required for this event.
SIDE MATCHES – There are a number of great side matches going on during the event! More information will follow.
OLD STUFF –
The match is a two day format, October 11th-12th with awards immediately following the completion of shooting on Sunday. The range is COMPLETELY CLOSED until Friday at the specified time, which is 2:00 PM.

Copperhead Creek Shooting Club also has several large bunkhouses that will sleep 8 people each. There is one large bathhouse with these. These are brand new facilities that just opened on July 4th! I believe the cost is around $100 per night per bunkhouse. Linens and bedding are not provided. I can send pictures if you are interested. Reservations for these accommodations must be made directly through the range. Please call Thomas at 830-265-4950 to make reservations.
