We has updated the main web site and here are the new links www.orsahp.com if interested please download form and email your information. Class size will be limited. Please use my email for all questions as I can not access TGO most of the day.

On 3/18, 4/22 & 5/20/2012 we will have Long Range Rifle Clinics. The clinics will focus on getting existing ORSA member and others new shooters that would like to compete in NRA Long Range High Power, F-Class, F/TR, Palma, Fullbore matches. The clinic will cost $25.00 per session. The clinic will be broken in to three parts to cover:

We will start at 300 yards for the first session (600 yard line as time allows), second clinic will be at the 600 yards line, and the third clinic will be at the 1000 yard line.

Just attended this clinic yesterday, learned a lot, and had a heckuva good time. Learned a lot of reloading tips for when im ready, and got to run my SXAR out to 600yds making hits I really didnt think I could make. Got great instruction from Randy (froggyone2), Phil, and the rest of the guys that were there...learned how to operate the pits, and got some good ideas for the next "big" project.

Anyone who like me doesnt have any experience in shooting 1/3 of a mile or has only gone and plinked and not had a good spotter and teacher this class is for you. If you have lots of experience at that distance but havent gone to 1,000yds thats whats being covered in the next class and for $25 you will be hard pressed to have more fun.

All in all a great time and I highly recommend it (note you do NOT have to be an ORSA member to attend)

By far the best $25 ive spent in a long time. The guys offer TONS of useful information in a laid-back, comfortable, learning environment. I wanted to thank everyone (especially randy) for being super eager to patiently answer my superbeginner-level questions/use their equipment.

[Guest phil357]

I would like to thank everyone for coming out to the clinic. Next month we will be at the 1000 yard line. This should be very fun and hope to see you all out there again. There is still room available please email if you are interested.
