WHEN AND WHERE DO YOU GUYS SHOOT IN THE CENTRAL GEORGIA AREA?For a Map of Georgia Clubs
There are several other monthly CAS matches in the Central Georgia area hosted by various CAS clubs. Below is a summary of the information and web links.
All of these matches are open to new shooters. A new shooter orientation is provided if you let the coordinators know who you are. If you like, first time shooters may assigned to a posse with an experienced local shooter as a mentor, to assist you at the stages. If you need to share a guncart or need a loaner gun, please let someone in charge know when you arrive, so arrangements can be made. It is generally not a problem.. this is a very "neighborly" sport and most everyone treats newcomers like old friends.. it's part of "the Spirit of the Game."
