D/FW Group Activities

[Radarscratch]

Ok all,

It seems like those Southern Texans are getting to know each other quite well. I've been lurking and posting for awhile now and there doesn't seem to be much around hehe.

I remember seeing post about a monthly Elm Fork shoot, but i haven't seen that inv awhile.

I propose a Monthly eat and greet every 2nd Friday. We can move the lunch around to different locations to suit the need of us urbanites.

Are you all game?

I have land.

Like a happy hour deal? Have to work so anything during the day is a no go for me.

Yes. We just have to plan it.

 

[Leper]

I'm in for a eat and greet or range time or private land time. Just let me know.

 

[Radarscratch]

So Beaner prefers an afterwork social, and everyone likes to goto the range (or open acreage.) TXARGUY, not sure if your out toward Leonard or somewhere else. I would prefer a control shoot (maybe even clay) on private property over Gun ranges these days. Elm Fork is over by my office, but $20 a head to shoot a couple boxes is a bit steep.

My land is outside of Trenton.

I'm down with lunch or an early dinner in the Allen/Plano/Frisco area. We might want to do that first and use that opportunity to plan a shoot.

 

[Leper]

I'll second that. Anywhere from Richardson to McKinney for an afterwork thing is fine with me.

 

[TXARGUY]

CHL friendly establishment of course.

Most of my weeks are spent out West but I'm good for Friday afternoon/evening for eating. Saturday for shooting.

Is the new kid welcome to join in? I live up in the north dfw but can make it almost anywhere when I'm in town.

I'll do what I can.

Of course

I'd love to get in on something like this.

 

[TXARGUY]

I'll propose dinner, Friday February 8 In the Allen/McKinney/Frisco area.

Venue should have a meeting/banquet room, be CHL friendly...

As far as menu is concerned I'm open to just about anything.

Rudy's BBQ is in Allen right next to cabelas. We can gorge ourselves on BBQ then raid cabelas for ammo.

The problem with social hour after work is that someone will eventually feel put out. We all live and work in different areas of town. I have many friends who live in the McKinney/Frisco area and there are just times when I cannot make the trip. That is just 25 miles, one way trip. I think that an after work social hour would have to rotate around a little bit. Plano, Addison, Frisco, etc.

I like the idea of spending some time on property. I had abuddy whoes FIL used to let us use his land. We would set up camp at the top of the hill and during the day, shoot down in the river bed. I stopped going when one of the participants got drunk and started throwing ammo in the camp fire. Inhad a .22 LR shell wiz by my ear. At that I left and never paerticipated in another weekender.

Over the Labor Day holiday I held a bullets, bar-b-q, and beer, outing with my (then) coworkes. A good time was had by all. If I were to make a suggestion, it would be something like a B,B, and B.

 

[TXARGUY]

Agreed about rotation of meet locations but we have to start somewhere.

There will be no drinking on my land. Anyone who just cannot wait to start drinking will be asked to leave.
