This is near Bartlett, n.e. of Wolfchase Mall, by Memphis. If you live nearby, you probably knew about the area.
Huge numbers of people had gone there for over twenty years or longer, every day in nice weather, and in my case for over a year. Most simply used handguns and shotguns under the bridge with lots of traffic rumbling high overhead.
So far no signs have been posted, and I enjoyed the area very much.
An LEO caught some 18 year-olds shooting a quarter mile downstream, and Not down into the sandbar in our favorite area, but straight across into the woods on the opposite high bank just days ago! Those young jerks have helped ruin it for the rest of us (middle-aged types in our 40s and 50s).
The LEO is a veteran of Kosovo and Iraq, and told me that he marched them out at gunpoint and confiscated their SKS rifles.
Incidentally, a woman's body was found in a bag by that bridge almost two years ago, and a Mexican guy fell onto his fishing net and drowned last summer, and his friend could not swim. The area's profile was getting high.
There are two very small areas several miles from there and are not used very much, but much lower-profile.
