We got one from Charles on the PSC Shooting Club. I have ot been to ours yet. Clean up around here will keep me busy the rest of this week & at least part of next. I may get a chance to just go look. Hope it is not too bad.

Golden Triangle Gun Club in Beaumont suffered some damage to the covers over their firing lines and lost a few trees. Nothing as extensive as what was done by Hurricane Rita. The range will be closed Saturday October 4 for cleanup and repairs. Then it's back to the regular schedule.

A posting on the Thunder IDPA website says that Thunder Gun Range is in good shape and all scheduled matches are on...

Texas City Municipal Range's website was updated 9-25, with no mention of Ike related closure. The only closings mentioned are for National Guard stuff and holidays.

Bayou Rifles lost the canopys over the 300 yard and 1,000 yard firing lines, and the Long Range number boards.
We cleaned it up and fixed the number boards Saturday - canopys not rebuilt yet.
Palma Match this coming Sunday is on, State Long Range is on for third weekend in Oct.

A little late in posting, but Carters Country in Spring is fine - lost a few trees, nothing worse (although their skeet range still didn't have power last weekend - call beforehand if you want to shoot skeet).

I attempted to go to Clear Creek Gun Range this morning to try out my new Colt Commander. When I got there around 10am I noticed there were already quite a few folks there and the pistol range seemed to have all the spots occupied...but nobody was shooting. Seems they were still trying to rebuild/fix all the shooter stations. I found it odd that they had contractors fixing the range while customers were milling around...
So I headed down to Texas City Muni for the first time...nice range, no noticeable damage to the range (they have a shed aft of pistol that lost its roof) and there was practically no one there.
