What's the average proof?
Somewhere around 35-38. My roommate in college had a class on distillation while he was getting his chemical engineering degree. He did the math for me one time. I make it so that you can tell it has alochol, but it's not overpowering. Several guys on here have had it and can vouch for it. Ricer got me started on the right track and I've tweaked it over the past couple years. I was going to make some apple pie, but figured I'd wait until Strouds when I can get quality ingredients. I will also have a jar of straight that I'm "curing" with fresh berries right now. That'll be for passing around the campfire!

False alarm on the club's thrower. Electric is still intact there and we will have full use.

The same weekend we are there, on the opposite side of the club, is the kids campout and fishing tournament. It won't impact us at all and we won't see anyone until we get around the clubhouse. However, they asked for a 2 hour window to let the kids shoot trap. I told them to pick their time and we will work around them. He was asking when we would be using it and I really couldn't give him a definite time. He said they usually shoot for an hour or two so I told him to pick his time and we would work around him before and after. No biggie.
Otherwise, it's ours all day Saturday. The 3d range is over the hill from the trap range.

We also could shoot 3d and trap on Friday. Whatever the masses decide.

Whoever said they were bringing the generator... Don't forget it! Lol

There is a plug already ready to go at the shelter. There's also 3 circuits for those who like to run things that trip breakers like a coffee pot.

Can you guys tell I'm pumped??? I can't quit talking about it.
