NCSC (Williston) Registered Fall 5 Stand - Saturday 10/14/23

 We're going to go one more round this year!  This will be our last registered shoot of 2023.  The format will again be a 100 target Main Event, shot on 2 fields, with a 50 target 12ga "Fluff" side event.  This will be an NSCA registered shoot, but Hunter class shooters are welcome, as always.  Registration will be handled through Score Chaser at the following link:

Please let me know if you have any issues registering.

Art will fire up the grill to service burgers and dogs for lunch, included with your shoot registration.  He will also run the 50/50 raffle that has become a tradition at our shoots.

Please let me know if you have any questions and we hope to see you at the club on the 14th!

Thank you,

NY State Ammunition Background Check

 NY State Police are now conducting backgrounds checks for purchases or transfer of ammunition (also firearms).

The state charges $2.50 at point of purchase for the ammunition background check conducted.

Have no idea if delays are being experienced or what is the expected time for a check to be approved/disapproved. How long are you expected to hang out at Walmart when you purchase ammunition?

State police website as of today has not been updated. No FAQ. No information period on the new requirements.

How do you handle a youth shooting team? Visitors to the club from out of state? Six people show up to shoot on Sunday at your club and want to purchase ammunition. What is the expected wait time?

What a mess!

Diabities and clay target shooting

 Not a doctor....

If you have a sensor easy enough to check your numbers.  If not, you're doing the finger pin prick.

You want a reading of 100 or higher immediately before starting the event.  If at 100 or lower a good chance of crashing during the shoot.  The more you exert yourself the faster your numbers are going to drop. With a sensor you can check after every 25 targets (skeet/trap) or every four or five stations in sporting. No sensor.  Preset your kit for a quick check.

The higher the numbers the less checking you have to do.  Some are more sensitive than others.

You know your body. You know when you're getting ready to crash. Set the minimum level you're willing to go before you take additional carbs.  But anything under 100 is going to get you in the long run.

It doesn't take many carbs to make it right.  A low carb protein bar in your shoot bag should be all it takes. In any case whatever you take it will be 15 minutes before it takes effect so don't let your number get too low before you take action.
