Thursday Night 3D Archery at Hamburg Fish & Game was bittersweet. I had a great time with my daughter, once again, but this was the last weekday shoot of the year for Hamburg. The 3D Archery Program at most clubs in the area is winding down and Hamburg is no exception. The last shoot of the year will be held on Sunday, September 8th and at this moment I don’t know if I’ll be attending due to the Mid Atlantic …

Over the past week I’ve been looking into joining a local archery club. In my search I’m looking for a club that is kid friendly, shoots year-round, and offers the membership an outdoor walking course.

Fortunately, Hamburg Fish & Game is relatively close to home and my daughter enjoys spending time at the club.

As August draws closer to an end, I’m nearing three months with my healthy lifestyle change. I’ve had a couple of hiccups along the way, the most recent of which made last week tough. Despite the challenges, I stepped on the scale this morning and was down a grand total of 34 pounds. The interesting thing in all of this is that the healthy changes are beginning to become routine, even when things aren’t going so well. I’m a creature …
When it comes to Pistol Shooting, I take the sport very seriously. I enjoy both USPSA and IDPA and when it comes to visiting a new club, for the first time, I like to know what I’m getting into. For instance, does a potential USPSA club do any sort of distance shooting or are they primarily a hoser club? Does a potential IDPA club run a lot of gimmicky stages or do they stick to realistic scenarios? Knowing what the …
