I guess I am somewhat hosed in that I work weekends Sat-Sun and Sun-Mon at a local ICU so my shift is from 1900-0730. I see all matches are on the weekend. I will try to swap a shift or two with some of the other guys to try to come out and shoot with y'all.

I do have a favorto ask though. Sometimes I get off shift and am wired to do what transpired that shift in ICU and I just might drive up to a match.

Can someone furnish me with hard addresses for all the ranges CAPRC frequents so that I know where I am going???

Thanks in advance,
~Andy

Besides maybe Angeles Shooting range, I dont know of hard addresses. GPS coordinates would be more useful for finding "the spot" and West End can be a little tricky getting to the entrance for the directionally challenged. Just post when youre looking to shoot with us and someone will post up a meeting spot for new shooters. Carlsbad is a heck of a drive to most of the ranges to shoot. The closest is West End and there is a match coming up on the 16th of this month.

I am learning that I am the odd man out living in Carlsbad, but I did surf this am and then go for a 60mi bike ride so I guess it is a trade-off :(

I wonder if there is an Iphone App for lat/lon coords???

What time is the match on the 16th?

Yeah, it was actually 62 but who's counting. I routinely get out on my bike. That and the gym are my church as work can get a lil crazy at times. It is nice to smell life from time to time.

I got in 34 miles on Tuesday as I only had a lil over 2 hours to kill.

I love Carlsbad even if it is a hotbed of gun hating folk :(

I love the bonked feeling of trying to climb some of the hills around here and your legs just go dead. You can't buy this feeling :lol: Even going up my stairs was interesting.

Get the Motion X GPS Drive for your IPhone. It has lat/lon capability.

Yes you can. You can save it too just like addresses. The app is only $0.99 cents to download.

Great app....lat/lon, picture, play ipod while nav-ing to the site. I've got all the RR remote radio sites and turnoffs marked. A really great app.
