BLACK POWDER MUZZLE LOADERS
Elbridge Rod & Gun Club Black Powder Shoots
Elbridge holds four black powder muzzle loader shoots a year. Aside from traditional targets we shoot novelty targets, throw tomahawks, and shoot the ever fun woods walk. Elbridge also hosts the New York State Muzzle Loaders for some of their shoots. Below are the 2012 shoot dates with a brief description.
Winter Rendezvous, February 11th & 12th, 2012
The Winter Rendezvous is a meat prize shoot (hams, bacons, and turkeys). All targets at this shoot are novelty of type and shot at 25 yards. If the weather is permitting we may hold a woods walk. Our woods walk consists of a mix of metallic animal silhouette and "trick shot" type targets. It is a fun challenge and if the targets don't challenge you, maybe the competitive harassment will. At times some shooters will dress in their traditional primitive clothing as seen in a few pictures above. There are occasionally settlers & traders set up in the club house with goods for sale or trade. All are welcome and if you don't have a muzzle loader stop by anyway, you may be interested before you leave.
