Cheyenne Wells machine gun shoot, May 1,2,3 - 2009

A friendly reminder that Cheyenne Wells Machine Gun Shoot is the first weekend in May.

Cheyenne Wells Fire Department

And their flier for this year:

This has always been a great shoot. It is hosted by the volunteer fire department and is, historically, where a massive percentage of their revenue is produced. The firing line is around 500 yards, with over a mile of range.

I've always wanted to get up there for the shoot but it's never worked out for me. In high school we played CW all the time in basketball but I don't think I've been up there since. Have to make it a point to go this year.

May 5th Gateway Dynamite Shoot

Another friendly reminder that the Gateway Dynamite Shoot is scheduled for May 5.

Their announcement:

Gateway Unaweep Volunteer Fire Department Upcoming Events


Says it all (follow the link for pictures, etc.) ...

I can add that it's a real hoot to set off a beer can full of TNT (at 500 yds.) and hear the report echo around some of the most stunning red-rock canyons in the world.

jBlack: for some reason opening the actual informational page locks up my browser up. Same thing if I do a google search and open directly from there. Would you post some specifics? Sounds like a good time.
