Smoke on the Mountain

Come join us for the first muzzleloading Woodswalk at VOD Tactical range in Old Fort, NC!

Event is on Saturday, October 21, 2023. We'll have a 15-shot course with targets ranging from 20 to 150 yards. Shoot is open to flintlock and percussion rifles & smoothbores. Please no inlines, smokeless powder muzzleloaders or breech-loaders this time.

While we're happy to see you in historical regalia, jeans and running shoes are also welcome. Scoring is hits only, no time pressure. Prizes include entertainment, excercise, and braggin' rights! This is intended to be a safe, fun and low-stress muzzleloading day, perfect for new blackpowder enthusiasts and old hands alike.

There will be an introduction and mandatory safety brief at 8:30AM, then we hit the trail and start makin' smoke at 9:00. We'll have a few shooting games after the event for those who'd like to maximize their trigger time. We're hoping to have a special guest or two, which we'll announce as we confirm details closer to the event.

Bring lunch/snacks and drinks for the shoot, but there are restaurant options in town about 15 minutes away.

For those who live a little farther away or are passing through, camping is available on site the night before.

Cost is $25 and registration is via Practiscore. Location is 438 Walker Dr., Old Fort, NC, 28762.

https://practiscore.com/login Practicescore requires a free account to register. (For those like me who dread yet another online account and loads of spam, I have never received any advertizing or unwanted solicitations from them. I get email registration confirmations and relevent info for each particular match, and that's it.)

Please PM me with any questions.

Hope to see you there!

Boy.....I would love to attend.
I sure do hope that there are still enough BP enthusiasts left to have fun events and rendezvous when I retire. I promise I will be attending then.
Best wishes @windini .
Throw a log on the fire for me.

Yeah, that retirement thing is elusive - always just out of reach!

I'm kicking myself 'cause I missed a very local event last weekend. Was all geared up to go, then I torqued my spine out of spec and could barely walk. :( When I retire, I hope this mortal coil will will accommodate all my Black Powder (and other) plans!
