Anyone around Cookeville down to shoot and BBQ?

[Guest maffewl]

Hey everyone! Just looking to make some new gun owner friends in the Cookeville area. I would like to go to a local range, field, or whatever, and do some shooting. If anyone knows of a good place, I love to plink (I think that's the right term) and shoot cans and bottles. As you can see, I'm still green to all of this official gun owner terminology and forum-ness, but have loved owning and shooting guns since I was little.

Also, afterwards, I could fire up the grill and everyone can BYOM&B and chill out with some homebrew and stories. Who knows, we may just figure out the solution to the world's problems.

Most any weekend is good for me. Reply if you are interested.

I am local to the Cookeville area.

Ever been to the Outdoor Junction range before?

[Guest maffewl]

Hey Burgan... yeah, it's my main place to go. It's a nice place, I was just thinking of shooting up some bottles and cans... but I'm down for whatever.

[Guest Burgan]

It doesn't really matter for me. I don't have the land however to do plinking on so I try and do range visits. However, I have been to the range in awhile. I'm surprised there aren't more Cookeville guys on here.

I am in Cookeville, So are a few of my friends and coworkers who enjoy shooting, some of which are on this forum. I don't necessarily care for Outdoor Junction because they have pissed me off a time or two though.

We have got to get out and break in these Kahr's before cold gets here. Donald is wanting to try them and the Bodyguard before he buys a new bug.

[Guest maffewl]

So does anyone want to try to get a shoot & meet together?

[Guest Burgan]

I just fed a 100 rounds through my new CZ today... A group shoot & meet wouyld be cool if someone knows a good place or has some land we can use...

Yes we do. Is Donald on here?

[Guest Burgan]

Wow, I just realized that nothing ever came of this thread...

Maybe once it gets warmer we can get something together.

I would think twice before shooting bottles, they make a mess that is hard to clean up. Cans are easier to clean up. Just make sure you leave the place you shoot clean. We don't want to give shooters a bad name. I have even cleaned up after people that have been there before me so the land owner won't get mad and shut the place down. Thanks for understanding. Don

I live in Crossville, and I definitely am interested in a shootout / cookout somewhere in the

Cookeville / Crossville area.

ABSOLUTELY, We could round up SEVERAL members from the Cookeville area for an early spring get together. I work with a couple of TGOers and I'm sure they'd be up for it. I've got a cousin who lives in TX but owns a little over 100 acres in the Dodson Branch Community (about 10 min N of TTU). I've been meaning to call him. I'm sure I can talk him into use of it.

Sounds like fun. Wish i was closer. I need to find a place near me were i can shoot some stuff other than just paper.

[Rickey]

Well I shoot IDPA and I shoot just about every weekend somewhere either at a match or the local range here in Gainesboro.

[Guest Loki1967]

Hey all! I am from Cookeville as well and have been trying to find a good place to plink with my 17 year old son....We would be interested.

[Guest NYCrulesU]

I'm right outside of Cookeville (20 mins). I used to spend a ton of time at Outdoor Junction when my buddy Scott worked there. I shot IDPA there as well. Their gunsmith, Jason, is a really good guy.

I would have no problem with a meet & greet. Would he nice to hang out with some fellow shooters.

Just curious, are you familiar with The Bridge Church there in Gainesboro?

[Sparkchaser774]

I am just down the road around Carthage. I would like to join in for a shoot also.

[btmatto]

I have a friend and I up here in cookeville, that would love to get in to the eat and shoot business. Any conclusion made on time and date?

[btmatto]

and place?

[Guest CajunKen]

How about 24 or 31 March?

adamween: I was just wondering where we stand on a cookout/shootout in the Cookeville area. Have you contacted your cousin about using his property?
