Thread: Urgent Message For All Lake Lyndon Target Shooters

Anyway, I think that there should be junk bits of land with low hunting and sight seeing value set aside as public recreation areas. The land I mentioned before has been the playground for our town for decades. Hunters, target shooters and off roaders have shared it for years without any major incidents I have heard of. Yea, people dump rubbish and shit there, but that's no different to anywhere else in the area where you can get a vehicle. It is great to be able to drive to an open space in your ute with your guns and do some shooting in the wilderness and not be bothered or bother anyone else.

My sentiment exactly. I am a member at a club and I'm most grateful for it though I don't always see myself using it for every shoot. Some of us want a bit of a non threatening challenge
