FNG from NY

Funny how the term “upstate” changes. When I lived in Albany that wasn’t even considered upstate by the locals. Where are you guys located? I’m in new paltz.
Really? I’m working in New Paltz highland area. Sitting in America’s best right now. Albany is upstate unfortunately. I’m from the finger lake region. Living in Binghamton now.

No shit, it’s a small world. Just working here this week? Too bad sheepdog warrior isn’t open. Bad ass 1000 yard range open to the public only about 40 minutes from here.
 
Hell yea, the old Catakill game Farm. Badass range with a ton of steel targets. Not cheap but a top notch facility. Check them out on Facebook. You hunted the Catskills t
Around there?
 
Wow 30 bucks a hour. That’s crazy, the gun club I’m a part of is 30 a year. Granted it’s only 425 going on to 500 yards this year. I still might have to come down and try it though.

$30 an hour to engage steel up to 1k is a steal. Not too many venues in NY that offer this. Range and personel are top notch.
They have PRS style matches (22 and centerfire) and have joined the Minuteman Precision Rifle https://minutemanprl.org/ League

Like I said might have to try it. It’s hard to justify the 4 hour round trip when I have the family farm 45 minutes away. The only problem there is when the crops go in.

It’s a lot but it’s that good. I belong to a spot in Ulster county that has a 400 yard range
 
Awesome. You ever shoot at sheepdog? I hunt around Tivoli time to time.

Never shot at Sheepdog but I've heard nothing but good things about it. Run by a retired NYPD guy and stretches out to 1k. I belong to a private club in Pleasant Valley which is close to me but I'm handicapped in that it only goes out to 200 yards.

Tivoli/Germantown etc is about 30 mins north of me.
 
Hoosick Falls, should of said mid state. But it’s definitely north of the city. I ride over that way every summer. That pic is from Hartford.

I'm in Sullivan county, for deer season, and hope times during the summer, grew up in Ulster county where is there a 400 yard range, and when is it open and costs?
Saugerties landowners association. If you PM me I’ll talk to you about how to get in. It’s 100 now a year but they’re raising it to 150 which still isn’t bad. Not a fancy place no clubhouse but the range is pretty legit. 3D archery too.

I went on sheep dog website, the price for 2020 is 40 per hour now. Looks like a great place. I will be making the trip to check it out when it opens for the season. 3 hours from where I am on eastern Long Island. Up to 1K shooting is worth at least a visit anywhere but in New York it's the Holy Grail. As for someone famous trying to shut it down welcome to the United Socialist State of New York.

Yea, the go figure where the business is approved and zoning is good to go yet some asshole with money complains. They have 700 acres there too. Targets set up at all different distances too it’s really gun. Never too busy either which is nice. Sucks they upped the price but it’s a nice facility and well worth it. I try to get up at least once a month.
 
I’m in new paltz now towards esopus small world.

Well that’s 5 of us now so that would be a good crew. Just post in this thread would be the best way to go about planning it I assume? Maybe in April if that’s good with you guys.
