| It was so quiet in Summerfield today, that I did have to find another spot to fish , as it were. Found myself in Stokesdale shooting an All-Star baseball game between Stokesdale and Oakridge. But it was really too hot to fish much.

You know Pappy, my kids don't listen to me until I start whisperin' either!!! 
Hang in there Clewis! Summerfield doesn't stay quiet anymore. We got 3 1/2 more years of excitement comin' our way!!! 
If it's fishin' you're into, we got some Big Mouth Bass that really need reelin' in over here!!!

I got really excited when I read this, Cracker. I was gonna volunteer my services and head on over with my fishing rod. Then I realized you weren't probably weren't talking about the kind of "Big Mouths" that are swimming around in Lake Higgins.

| What kind of bait is needed to pull that one up on the bank? I'm ready to fillet it.

| Maybe everybody is happy for a change. I've been reading about this turkey shoot thing. That NWO article explained a lot, but I'm not sure yet how I feel. What do y'all think??

| Zippity- I was quoted in the newspaper so to expand on my feelings a little. My major issue is the noise. After 30 years? of 4 + months every year of gunshots every Friday and Saturday night I would like to see some sort of relief. I know the wild life clubdoes good things and I also know it is easy to sign a petition for something if it is not affecting you every single week end from mid August until the week end before Christimas. The first thing allthough another turkey shoot in Summerfield due to the population is highly unlikely I would like for the ordinance to change so that the people in the neighborhoods surrounding it could have some input. I would also like some sort of restrictions on how many months and how often in the month they can be held. I know some week ends at the wildlife club now there can't be more than 2 or 3 people shooting and then other weekends there are a lot more but the fact is the noise of gunshots if the same. Bang then 5 minutes bang then 5 minutes bang until 10 oclock at night. Makes sitting outside on the porch very unpleasant. Last edited on Jul 23rd, 2006 01:48 pm by DOGGETTJA

| I understand the concerns of the folks who have to listen to all that gun blastin' at the turkey shoot. On the other hand, I'd hate to see somethin' that's been goin' on fer 30 yars shut down. I ain't got no good answer, but would hope some kind o' compromise can be reached.

I see both sides...
30 YEARS is a long time tradition for most folks! We love our right to bear arms and shoot just like anyone... Unless you own lots of land in the country... it's hard to find anywhere you can even target practice.
Also, anything excessive can get old quick.

I know I do not live nearby, and I have only patronized the shoot once, so maybe i dont have a dog in this fight but its only one nite a week for a few months. i can hear 311 Motor Speedway from my house on Sat. nights for 5 mos. Call me crazy but i kind of enjoy it. With all the other things going on in SF, don't yall have enough to fight about already.
