Bowling Pin Match Results December 2021

Gentle Shooters,

As I rode back home yesterday after the last match of the season, in my mind I had prepared a long, poetic reminiscence of another season of bowling pin shooting. However, it is going to be another beautiful day and the car is loaded for a trip to the sporting clays range. I’d love to stay and chat, but daylight is burning, so here are your scores and I will see you in April, or around the range before. Practice up, because I will be! Here are your results.

December Bowling Pin Match

Well Gentle Shooters,

We are approaching the end of another season of Bowling Pins. As many of our experienced shooters know, the coating on the pins does not hold up in the cold winter months. So this Saturday, December 4th will be our last match until April. We will begin at 9:30 at the stunning Airfield Shooting Club range in idyllic Wakefield. Directions to the range and rules for the match are available at our web site www.airfieldshootingclub.org and individual questions can be addressed to the pinhead at [email protected].

See you Saturday,

Steven

2021 December 04th ASC Pistol Class

On December 4, 2021, the Airfield Shooting Club (ASC) is hosting a Pistol Class including sections on the Law of Concealed Carry and Self Defense and Methods of Concealed Carry. The ASC Pistol Class is intended to provide hands-on orientation to the safe handling of handguns and includes both classroom and live-fire training. Our instructors teach both revolver and semi-auto sections in this class. In addition to the ASC Pistol Class, over an hour long session is scheduled with Timothy W. Drewry, a Virginia licensed attorney, who will discuss some of the legal aspects of carrying concealed firearms and self defense in Virginia. The attorney is acertified pistol instructor too and usually remains with the class until the very end so that he may answer questions which may arise. An additional segment of the course will include a brief discussion of some of the firearms appropriate for concealed carry and the holsters or other devices which might be suited for carrying a firearm concealed. Please note that the ASC Pistol Class, including the legal and concealed carry sections, is a non-NRA course, but it satisfies the handgun competency requirements set forth in Virginia Code § 18.2-308.02 (B).

This course is conducted by state certified or NRA certified firearms instructors. Those who successfully complete the ASC Pistol Class will receive a certificate which will serve as proof of training for the purpose of obtaining a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit.


The course is scheduled to commence at 9:00 a.m. in the Spain Conference Building located at the Airfield 4-H Conference Center (near Wakefield).
We expect the formal portion of the course will be completed by about 4:00 p.m., however several of the instructors usually remain at the range to help those who want to get some additional practice with their handguns. It is not necessary that you own a firearm in order to attend these courses. The instructors will bring some of their personal firearms, which you may borrow. If you have your own firearm, you may bring it to the range for live fire practice, but please do not bring a loaded firearm to the classroom portion in the morning. We will do our first work with loaded firearms in the early afternoon.


Cost of the class is $65.00 per participant (nonrefundable unless directed by ASC Board). Must be 18+ years old to attend and have no legal prohibitions to possess a firearm. Payment should be made to the “Airfield Shooting Club” and sent attention to Timothy W. Drewry at P.O. Box 523, Wakefield, Virginia 23888. If mailing, include name(s) of participant(s) and the following for each: phone #; address; and email address. You can also pay online at the following: https://airfieldshootingclub.org/make-payment/ . When paying online, choose “ASC Payment Portal.” Fill in the online payment form including your name, address, phone #, and email. Choose “Class fee” as reason for paying. If you are an ASC member, insert your number, otherwise you may use “000.” Also when paying online, send an email to Tim Drewry at his email address below and give him name(s) of participant(s) and the following for each: phone #; address; and email address. Failure to fully identify participants may prevent them from participating in course. The course fee includes all class materials, some .22 caliber ammunition and the attorney’s fees, but does not include the cost of any centerfire ammunition. You may bring your own centerfire ammunition to use in your own firearm or an instructor’s firearm. Note: This course has limited space; the course is filled as payments are received. It is best to contact Tim Drewry to verify space is still available before making payment !!!!


If you have any questions, please contact Tim Drewry by email at [email protected] . If you already have a concealed carry permit, this is a great refresher course, especially if the first course you took to acquire your permit did not have a lecture on the laws in Virginia. If you have family, friends and neighbors who wish to acquire a concealed carry permit, then this course will fully prepare them!!! We hope you will register for this class and join us on Dec. 4th !!!

Thanks to the hard-working crew of 19 members who showed up and worked hard to get the range cleaned up and the new backers ready for use.  A special thanks to Jim Manning for buying the crew lunch.  Check out their work next time you visit the range.

Be Patient!

Please Be Patient!

I have received multiple emails asking about canceling the work party this Sunday.  I am aware that the weather forecast for Saturday is horrible.  But long term, and recent, experience has shown that while it may be spot on and rain all day Sunday, it could also change.  I will post a go/no go notice Saturday sometime afternoon after returning from the bowling pin match.  Please check the website if you haven’t received an email as the website updates immediately, but the emails can take a while.

Fall Clean Up Work Party -Correction

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween.  But now that the trick-or-treating is done, it’s time to get ready for the next major event, the Fall Clean Up Work Party!  It’s scheduled for SUNDAY November 7th at 9:30. Don’t forget Day Light Savings Time ends that morning so we fall back one hour. We’ll be cleaning up the 50 yd, 100 m, and side berms, as well as general range clean up.  Hopefully, we’ll also have new backers to grommet with our new grommet press.  So come out and help beautify your club’s ranges and get your service hours in.  Please bring string trimmers, chain saws, brush cutters, open utility trailers, and whatever other tools you have that may help.  Don’t forget your PPE.

I apologize for my inability to get the details included, and then correct.  (Subconsciously, I think this was a method to bombard everyone with emails in order to get as many members as possible.)  Again, sorry for the fiasco!

If you have any questions, email me at [email protected].
