Parking is very close by and on nicely-drained gravel.
This is a small fun shoot that happens once a year, hosted by the Lake Fork Cowboys [not an official SASS™ club].
It’s a great venue for newer shooters and gives experienced shooters the chance to shoot different types of targets, including some flying clays. It’s also a great chance to introduce non-Cowboy shooters to Cowboy Action Shooting [CAS].
Cowboy shooters, we ask that you please wear your cowboy/cowgirl garb.
Spectators and guests are welcome. Ear protection & eye protection are required.
The range has a porta-potty but no running water. There is fuel, a convenience store, and restaurants in the town of Atwood.
GPS Coordinates at the range:
N 39 50.346 W 88 29.150
