what does: Hey let's go shooting mean to you?

Load a minimum of six firearms in two cases, 1,00-1,500 rounds, targets, target stands, box with stapler, various spare parts, tools, hearing protection and cleaning supplies, spotting scope and tripod, spray paint for shilouete targets, shooting mat, chrongraph and cooler with lunch; drive 70 miles to the range gate, open gate, drive through, relock the gate, drive to the next gate, open gate, drive through, relock gate.
Now I'm at the range: unload everything, set-up targets and talk to whoever else is there. Shoot some, talk some more, repeat for four to six hours, reverse above procedure.
Back at home: dump fired brass in tumbler, disassemble guns and begin cleaning process, wash 22 pounds of dust or mud (depending upon recent weather) from SUV and, finally, walk into house, get dagger look from spouse and realize sex is out of the question tonight.
Whew! I didn't realize shooting was so much work.
