| Any plans? I'm getting the itch something awful. |
Seriously guys, this is Stumps and KYBOB's thing. It takes alot of effort to put these things together and these shoots are in no way guaranteed. We have not always had a fall and spring shoot because these guys have other obligations in life. I'm certain they will let us know with plenty of advanced notice if they are able to pull one off again. But I really don't want them to feel that we are unapreciative and pushy. I'm no preacher or stone thrower, just thought I should throw this out there. (I bumped the add earlier too  )

If anything, I'll be more then happy to get the balling rolling if either can't or need help setting it up. |

whats arfcom kc shoot? if its what i think it is, i'd like to join if you fine kentuckians dont mind This is the ARFCOM HTF Shoot |
| It IS a lot of fun. We owe a lot to Knob Creek for hosting us. Kenny and Steve are good to us. I believe Steve spends his day off placing tannerite and moving targets for us at no charge. We also owe Ky_bob and Stump a debt of gratitude for making it happen twice a year. |
|
I'd love to help put this together.
Please let me know what I can do to help. I'm a member at KCR and I'm down there about every other weekend if not more; not that this is gonna help, but if someone needs me to run something out there before the event whatever, let me know. I've got a dodge durango, so whatever can fit in there I can haul and I've got a hitch for towing. |

Here is some more eye candy to get yourself in the mood:
Spring 2010 Srping 2008 And of course the pinned Shoot Thread has tons of pics and videos. Bob, Stump, and others pitch in a lot to make this happen and KCR gives us a ton of perks. Hope to see everyone plus more on the next shoot. |
I know that when the shoot comes closer people will be looking for targets for the shoot.( IE cars, fridges,etc...) I have come across several old boats that need to be disposed of. They are not on trailers and setting in the edge of a field, so we would need a trailer or five and some help getting them on the trailers. Cost would be minimal beside the time and cost of trailers to haul. And to top it off all this is less than 2 miles from KCR. I need to get them moved soon as they will be a bonfire when my FIL gets to feeling lean and mean again. So lets set a date.......

I don't have a winch or a trailer, but I can lend myself for helping out with my two hands and back 
Just let me know what date/time and I will be there to help out. |

hkx3 if you where to come down the day before, and we could round up a couple other people we could get all of them to the range with plenty of time left over to shoot trap for a couple of hours afterward.. How about this, next weekend Im going to try to be in KY early saturday. Maybe I can swing down that way and help you guys out? Try to get something together and keep me in the loop. Illl bring snatch block, rigging, etc. I just dont have a suitable trailer.

In my line of thinking, you can jackknife the truck and trailer, and Ill feed the winch cable down the centerline of the trailer, to the boat.
maybe line up some ramps, some 2x6's or 4x4's or something to make simple ramps. Should zip right up there... I am assuming these are smallish boats sitting directly on the ground? |

They are your typical runabout size. They are old school ski boats and runabouts Ala the 70's. No motors just hulls and some interior bits. I would say that there is maybe 6 to 7 of them.
I think I may have transportation and labor covered but it may take two trips. Crossing fingers...

Guys, not to be pushy, but I need a couple days lead time to organize my weekend. Its a 600 mile round trip for me, so please let me know soon where/if I will be needed. Thanks! |

When this gets closer I might be able to "Scrap" one of the shittier work trucks. (I've been eyeballing one particularly vile example in the lot that no one will drive and runs like crap )Crap, That was Me. (Chilie forgot to log off on my computer) I'm betting his boss would be quite disturbed to read that.
Sorry Chilie. Your going to come out of the closet the next time you forget to log off.
