SUMMARY:Monthly Meet - July 26\, 2025 - Blanket Prize
DESCRIPTION:Blanket Prize Meet\n \nBring a Blanket Prize as your entry fee!  \nWe are having two shooting categories\, off hand as it is known as and bench to compete in classifications for fairness. We do not want to exclude anyone who wants to shoot with us but we will not compete against centerfire or scopes to be fair for example. Bench rest\, shooting sticks\, cover support pole\, kneeling\, sitting\, prone et all shooting group. We will be shooting two relays\, 10 shots each\, patch and roundball\, any caliber in these two shooting classifications off hand and supported. The classifications will not compete against each other but just bragging rights. \nFirst Relay:\n10 shots at 50 yards\, we will have our clay pigeon setup and could add some new steel animals to knock down. Zero for a miss and 10 points for hitting the pigeon or steel knockdown. \nSecond Relay:\n10 shots at 25 yards\, five squirrel two shots each for score and remember it is a tough little bugger of a target so be ready to aim small miss small. They have a bullseye on them\, small\, we will be using to score so not so many ties we hope when it comes to the blanket prize selection process. \nBoth relays will be added together for placement within your appropriate shooting category off hand or bench-rest. Then we go to the prize blanket so you can choose your winnings based on finish and you choose what looks good to you. \nFirst shot determines your scoring category. No changing your mind after first shot. So pick either bench or offhand. \nSo shooting safety talk start time: 8:00am\, goal is done by noon so we can all enjoy time with our families this weekend and get out of the heat. \n20 shots total\,\nPatch and roundball. \nWe Might have a THIRD RELAY:\nWith our successful pistol match we will be having a monthly match independent of the rifle match. Participation is voluntary if you have a pistol and want to shoot it for score. 5 shots\, 25 yards big bull target. So bring your pistols for added chances to bring home the meat so to speak. This will be a separate match from the rifle and have its own prizes. \nMEMBERS: Remember that we will have a Trade Blanket at all monthly meets. Bring any items you would like to sell\, trade or barter. The items can be anything – Old\, New\, Blades\, Period Clothing\, and all manner of supplies. \nGuests are always welcome who just want to watch\, learn and meet folks.  Bring a chair and we got two picnic tables to sit at as well. \nParticipation Fee: If you are …\nMember of both TRBPS and PCSC: $5\nMember of TRBPS and not PCSC: $10\nMember of PCSC and not TRBPS: $15\nMember of neither: $20 \n\nThe Tomahawk\, Axe\, Hatchet\, Knife throw activity is picking up a lot of participation.

The classifications will not compete against each other for prizes\, just bragging rights. \nFirst Relay:\n10 shots at 50 yards\, the NMLRA six bull 50 yard target. Two shots each bull for score and one for practizin. \nSecond Relay:\n10 shots at 25 yards\, 50 yard NMLRA two bull targets\, five shots each target.

First shot determines your scoring category. No changing your mind after first shot.

SUMMARY:Monthly Meet - Over the Log Shoot - February 22\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Annual February Over the Log Shoot\n(Mike Westervelt Memorial Shoot)\nIt is called an over the log or chunk gun match. It is a one of a kind match with unique scoring and format. We decided on this format and type of match as many of our group shoot the Alvin York match in Pall Mall TN\, north west of Knoxville which occurs in March every year. This allows for practice and checking equipment before they compete against 120 or 130 shooters from throughout the midwest. It is a great first match as it is not a lot of shots and plenty of time to analyze your hits and talk to your fellow shooters. You literally change your target after each shot so you can see what is going on. No spotting scopes needed here for this one! \nFor those of you who do not like to get up and down from the ground\, we will have two classifications\, prone and bench. You do not have to have any special equipment like a “chunk gun”. No special clothing although many wear their authentic blue Alvin York overalls. See the attached picture for clothing optional dress. It is how the guns evolved and many shoot what they brung so to speak. So basically any gun\, any sights\, any caliber and shoot with us. So if you have a new rifle\, new load\, new anything and want to test it out\, great match for that. Reason is you do not have to worry about sighting in your rifle\, you bring the bullseye to where you are shooting. Very unique for sure and tough to describe. Just hit the paper somewhere in a group. Remember to bring your favorite 50 yard sight in target for your warmup practice shots. \nParticipation Fee: If you are …\nMember of both TRBPS and PCSC: $5\nMember of TRBPS and not PCSC: $10\nMember of PCSC and not TRBPS: $15\nMember of neither: $20

SUMMARY:Monthly Meet - April 27th\, 2024 - Open House Gathering of Friends & Family with Food
DESCRIPTION:As many have seen of late\, we have been making some incredible improvements on our range for our shooter comforts\, guests\, scorers\, RSO’s and anyone else that wants to use the range. Our goal is to be 99% done with our ‘Phase One’ project – shall we call it – by our next shoot. So our shoot will be expanded to an open house for all our shooters\, family and friends to explore the range and enjoy its amenities on Saturday\, April 27\, 2024 starting about 8:30am\, as well as shoot. This continues our philosophy of fellowship\, friendship and family for all here at TRBPS. \nGrills have been installed for cooking and several members have volunteered to cook for all. TRBPS supplies the food\, at no cost to our attendees. We are having our trade blanket with lots of goodies every month that folks like to browse and buy from. And if you would like to\, bring something for the trade blanket – for sale\, trade or barter. \n(DEFERRED TO MAY EVENT) — We are having a special VIP guest who will be bringing over some special firearms\, and maybe some other items\, for us to purchase from our growing trade blanket\, and to meet us all and to see what TRBPS is all about. This is an open house to celebrate our fellowship\, enjoy our improved range setup to start our shooting season. —  \nWe will be shooting for score\, but also demonstrating for our friends and family members if they would like to experience shooting our rifles. As we will most likely be going a bit longer with the food and fellowship\, we will be adding a pistol match. Single shot flint or percussion. \nWe are having two shooting categories/classifications for our rifle match: “Offhand” – as it is known – and “Supported” for fairness. We do not want to exclude anyone who wants to shoot with us but we will not compete against centerfire or scopes to be fair. The “Supported” classification uses: bench rest\, shooting sticks\, kneeling\, sitting\, prone\, et al shooting group. \nThere will be two shooting relays\, 10 shots each\, patch and roundball\, any caliber in these two shooting classifications: “Offhand” and “Supported”. The classifications will not compete against each other for prizes\, just bragging rights. \nFirst Relay:\n10 shots at 50 yards\, steel and other targets of various sizes simple hit or miss. \nSecond Relay:\n10 shots at 25 yards\, NMLRA six bull targets\, two shots each target (the top left target is for practice). Heck\, may have to change this one up and go smaller. \nScores will be added together for placement within your appropriate shooting category: “Offhand” or “Supported” (bench-rest\, shooting sticks etc). First shot determines your scoring category. No changing your mind after first shot. So pick either “Supported” or “Offhand”. \nOur Third Relay:\nWill be a pistol match independent of the rifle match. Participation is voluntary if you have a pistol and want to shoot it for score. \nSo\, the shooting safety talk will start at 9:00am. Our goal is done by 1:00pm so we can all enjoy time with our families this weekend or maybe a nice sit-down lunch provided by TRBPS. Guests and shooters under 18 are always no charge. This is for shooters only. \nSo total of 20 shots for score – plus any practice shots you may want to take – patch and roundball excluding the pistol match. \nMEMBERS: Remember that we will have a Trade Blanket at all monthly meets starting in 2024. Bring any items you would like to sell\, trade or barter.

SUMMARY:Monthly Meet - Over the Log Shoot - February 24th\, 2024
DESCRIPTION:Over the Log or Chunk Gun Shoot\nChunk Gun shooters\nSaturday\, Feb 24th\, the Talking Rock BPShooters are hosting our match at the PCSC complex and is the first for 2024. First range on the right when you come through the gate. Folks been working hard over the winter on range improvements and upgrades for all your shooting comforts. Come by and check ’em out. \nIt is called an over the log or chunk gun match. It is a one of a kind match with unique scoring and format. We decided on this format and type of match as many of our group shoot the Alvin York match in Pall Mall TN\, north west of Knoxville which occurs in March every year. This allows for practice and checking equipment before they compete against 120 or 130 shooters from throughout the midwest. It is a great first match as it is not a lot of shots and plenty of time to analyze your hits and talk to your fellow shooters. You literally change your target after each shot so you can see what is going on. No spotting scopes needed here for this one! \nFor those of you who do not like to get up and down from the ground\, we will have two classifications\, prone and bench. You do not have to have any special equipment like a “chunk gun”. No special clothing although many wear their authentic blue Alvin York overalls. See the attached picture for clothing optional dress. It is how the guns evolved and many shoot what they brung so to speak. So basically any gun\, any sights\, any caliber and shoot with us. So if you have a new rifle\, new load\, new anything and want to test it out\, great match for that. Reason is you do not have to worry about sighting in your rifle\, you bring the bullseye to where you are shooting. Very unique for sure and tough to describe. Just hit the paper somewhere in a group. Remember to bring your favorite 50 yard sight in target for your warmup practice shots. \nMEMBERS: Remember that we will have a Trade Blanket at all monthly meets starting in 2024. Bring any items you would like to sell\, trade or barter. The items can be anything – Old\, New\, Blades\, Period Clothing\, and all manner of supplies. \nGuests are always welcome who just want to watch\, learn and meet folks.  Bring a chair and we got two picnic tables to sit at as well. \nParticipation Fee: If you are …\nMember of both TRBPS and PCSC: $5\nMember of TRBPS and not PCSC: $10\nMember of PCSC and not TRBPS: $15\nMember of neither: $20

SUMMARY:Event: Annual Burnt Mountain Winter Rendezvous 2023
DESCRIPTION:Annual Burnt Mountain Winter Rendezvous & Member Shoot for 2023\n \nMembers of TRBPS and of PCSC are welcome to join us on Range B (Primitive Range) for a casual\, no points shoot for fun and to talk about TRBPS\, where we are\, what we plan on for 2024\, what we can do different. An informal member meeting with fun shooting thrown in. \nOn 12/16\, weather permitting\, we are having a “work day” on range B.  Our regular shooting range.  This will entail working on our guns\, our friendships\, our shoot program for 2024\, where we are with PCSC\, finances for TRBPS and the list goes on. \n\nSo if you are a member of TRBPS you should help make a decision or two and know where we are.  So that is the invite list. Think social shoot on a Saturday so everyone who works has a chance for input.  Attendance is not any where close to mandatory.  It is meant to be a fun\, relaxing day and discuss where we are as a charter club.  Even brewery at noon is part of the agenda and maybe a snack or two if we can get a fire going.\n\n\nThis is all weather permitting and we will set up like a regular shoot.  Flags\, our gear\, cardboard\, paint\, staplers\, steel\, targets etc.  But no scoring other than harassing each other.  Heck we might try to come up with a novelty challenge like a dual\, use the rattle box.  Who knows what the mind will come up with.  But it is all for fun and celebration.\n\nSo this is a relaxing day to shoot and brainstorm.  We are in great shape and getting better and stronger as a club within a club.  So we call this our Burnt Mountain Rondy. Come on over.  This is a family event so bring bring your family to meet and greet as well as shoot.\n\nTake care all and see you on the 16th for our Burnt Mountain Rendezvous.  This is all subject to the range remodel timing of course.  Reply if you have questions.
