CPW SHOOTING RANGE SMALL GRANT - AWARDED TO GCAA
GCAA applied for this grant in 2020 and we were successful in receiving a $5,000 award from the CPW Shooting Range Small Grant Program this spring!! This money is being used to purchase 6 new Rinehart full size targets. The order has already been placed but due to long lead times in manufacturing we may not see these until fall.
IBO vs ASA vs UNIVERSAL TARGET SCORING
We have decided to standardize the targets at the range and have all the same scoring type inserts. That will be IBO. New inserts and all New targets will be purchased with the IBO score outline. Click here to learn more https://www.bowhunting.com/blog/2017/05/06/asa-vs-ibo-3d-competition/
