There will be coffee provided and it is a family oriented shoot with no alcohol or profanity allowed. There will be a variety of meats and money rounds $5 a shot. Limit of 60" barrel and no scopes allowed. Props will be provided for shooting rail. Please bring out family and friends!!!

I don't know alot about turkey shoots, but that sounds like some funny rules to me Health. It would be OK to shoot a 60" outlaw barreled gun, but a vision imparied fellow couldn't use a scope. A scope has nothing to do with a pattern, where a 60" Bud Berkey outlaw gun has everything to do with it. Most peoples guns would have something like a 28" Mod. choke barrell or something similar. The average person would want to think twice before going up against a outlaw gun. I'm not throwing off on the Taylor Ruritan Club but who came up with those rules. Explain it to me Health I always wanted to shoot at one of those but it doesn't sound right to me.

No clue, but you have 10,000 more complaints over a scope versus a 5' long barrel. Why? No idea but it's just how it is. I can speak with the ladies and get their opinion but the rules were set by a group that shoots there regularly.

Thanks Health for the answer. I wasn't asking for a rule change, just didn' t understand.

Come on out and bring some friends!! This should be a great shoot!! There will be a bonus shot too where everyone will have just as good as any to win no matter the gun. New idea I came up with and it is rather neat IMO!!!
