To all Shooters:

Update on the Border Shoot: I am leaning toward April 30 in order to not interfere with other events that I am aware of. Feedback appreciated.

Due to BP Maniac Shooter's response, I am advised that importing a Bigfoot into the State of NY for purposes of hunting, harassing, chasing, or causing them harm may be illegal. Please see the referenced report from NYS DEC: Bigfoot: Illegal to shoot a Sasquatch-Bigfoot in New York State October 2012...
Apparently we will have to request a waiver for the event!!!

That day is best for me

There are very few friends I would rather hang out with than the Ancient Ones. Looking forward to seeing you next Weekend at the Augusta Gun Show. I will be up to help set up on Friday. If your shoots didn't require 7 hours each way, I would be there!

If I was anywhere near that range, I'd jump on that opportunity.....!!!
That's the type shooting I enjoy....just like we do on New Year's Day at Friendship Indiana.

Come up to Maine to an Ancient Ones Rendezvous in May or October.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!!!!

The Whitehall Fish and Game Club has reserved the range for the SECOND ANNUAL NY-VT BORDER SHOOT!!

The NY-VT Border shoot will be held on Sunday, April 30, 2023 at the Whitehall (NY) Fish and Game Club Range, located at 292 Winters Road, Whitehall, NY (directions below.) We will begin at Noon and be done by 5:00 PM.

Targets will be three NMLRA novelty targets (animals) at 25 yards; NMLRA 100 Yard Bullseye Target at 50 Yards; an unspecified non-scoring "Fun Gong" at 75 yards, and THE BIGFOOT TARGET with 8” steel gong at 90 yards. Paper targets for score, 75 yard gong for fun, and the steel BIGFOOT target is a “single elimination” event; shoot until you miss. All shots are offhand. Round balls only, open sights, flint, percussion, wheelock or matchlock. Figure on twenty to thirty shots total. Shooters do not need to be from Vermont or New York; last year we had four states represented!

There are no awards or prizes, this is a get-together fun shoot to meet other shooters and share stories. Fame and eternal glory only. Feel free to bring trading goods, legal items only. Registration fee is $5 (see below).

The range has limited covered areas for loading. We recommend “tailgate loading” and bring a pop-up canopy for shade or drizzle protection. Spring weather is totally unpredictable. There is an outhouse on the grounds, and we will provide a hand washing station and drinking water.

All shooters who are not members of the Whitehall Fish and Game Club Range will be required to execute a Waiver of Liability agreement upon registration and we request a $5 donation to the range for when we tear up their backers!

In order to best prepare for the event, we would appreciate knowing if you are attending. Please respond to [email protected] with either I PLAN TO BE THERE or I HOPE TO BE THERE or I WILL NOT BE THERE and the how many of you are coming. We would appreciate hearing back from you by April 20th. You can reach me (ADK Bigfoot) by phone at 518-796-5226; voice or text.


Directions to the Whitehall Fish and Game Club Range: We are located between Rutland, Vermont and Whitehall, NY. From Route 4, take County Route 21 South. Look for Winters Road on your right. The range is a mile down the road on the left. 292 Winters Road. Enter the gate and someone will assist with parking.

We look forward to meeting all of you and making some smoke!

I encourage anyone near this range to go & enjoy it! Forget the prize money, etc.
We do the same type event on New Year's Day in Indiana.
Pretty much everyone that shows up enjoys the event because the pressure of winning events isn't there.
We shoot, eat potluck & talk shop all day long.
It doesn't get much better than that.
