Facebook monthly update.
This is the Iowa Field Target Association monthly report for June 2025.
The next field target competition with the Iowa Filed Target Association will be held Sunday July 13, 2025 starting at 1:00 pm.
At the West Liberty Gun Club.
The Facebook group now has 45 members.
Thank you to all the people that are making this happen.
The weather is very hot. Sun screen and pop up tent time. Definitely need a hat. And light weight long pants keep the flys away. I go to the range at 8:00 am and shoot for an hour or so every Saturday and Sunday if anyone wants to join me.
There is continuing construction on the airgun range at the West Liberty Gun Club.
Over the next month I am hoping to construct a bench rest shooting lane. There is going to be a seventy five foot lane cut just west of the Field Target course. And the field
Target course will now have five lanes with three targets per lane.making it a 30 shot loop.
The bench rest lane will have the sight in range for field Target with markers from 10-75 yards. The bench rest targets will be set at 50 and 75 yards and have Target stands for silhouette shooting and 50 shot target cards.
And a spinner set
The sight in range will have spinners set ten yards apart for the entire length of the lane.
The airgun range is open to the public and club members. The sight in range is set with permanent markers and you can move your own targets in that area.
There are animal silhouettes with open kill zones set in the field target lanes. These are operated by shooting the lower paddle then the upper kill zones is reset. Feel free to move the animal targets. Don’t push them in to the ground by the silhouette. It will bend or cut you. Hold the base and just push the spike into the ground. Make sure the paddles work.
Eye and ear protection are required at all time and a hat is strongly recommended at the range.
If you live in the West Liberty Iowa area. And you want to shoot airguns or Airgun Field Target or bench rest. . Please consider joining the West Liberty Gun Club.
If you join the West Liberty Gun club you can use the Airgun range, pistol bays, 100 yard range and trap corse anytime the range is open. Unless there is a competition.
Public hours are Saturday and Sunday 1-5 pm.
CHECK THE SCHEDULE!
Public access is sometimes suspended during large competition events.
Report to the range officer building before going to the range.
Club members can shoot from 8am - dusk seven days a week. I will be at the range Saturday mornings.
If you are interested in getting together for Saturday or Sunday morning shooting matches . PM me or Email.
I will provide more details as things progress.
