CANCELED - April Group Shoot - APRIL 29th

[Azgunlover69]

ALL - @delta6 went out to the location for this shoot and found that in the six weeks or so since I've been there there has been a bunch of grass growth and death - and the area is probably not the best place to shoot right now due to fire danger. Given that - We're going to go back to the location by the Deer Valley Dump. Per Delta - this location is much better for shooting right now. We'll meet at 7:00 AM on the N/W corner of Deer Valley and Grand. I'll have the trailer and we can clean up new stuff there as well.

I'll PM each of the folks that have confirmed.

I went out to where I think you all shot last time and are planning to go again and I was run off by a couple of guys in a yellow truck saying they were the ranch managers and I couldn't shoot there due to the cattle they had on the land. I looked on the map and it appears it's all state trust land and private property with some city boundaries mixed in. I could have the area wrong but I was met on the west side of the dump just as I rounded south by the power grid thingy.

"You have some proof that you have any authority to tell me that? I'm sure you can understand why some random dude telling me something isn't exactly scripture for me."

I could do the same thing if I'm out shooting in my favorite spot and someone else shows up. "Hey, you can't be here, I'm blah blah blah and you're gonna have to turn around and leave!"

I was curious about this location too as I know that side of the carefree had private and state trust land with very little blm. What was BLM in the area got shut down and their ranges put up instead.

Totally plausible it was on private. Only looking at a map would tell us for sure if the location was actually blm or on private land

Azgunlover69,
You are correct. It is private property that the ranch lets us shoot on. They have just let the cattle out (wet spring, so they are late) and if you decide to shoot there that is between you, the landowner and the sheriff.

I was out numbered and wasn't looking for trouble. Literally just trying an ar out I was fixing. Looking at the map there is only a small rip of blm and its right by the Ford grounds so probably not able to shoot due to proximity.

Good to know. I'll just keep going to my couple of lake pleasant areas then to be safe.

All - I talked to Delta6 - it sounds like he's also spoken with the land owners and they don't want us shooting there while they have cattle on the property (thanks also @Azgunlover69 )... Too late to find a different spot - so canceling... I'll connect with those who said that they were going to come.

Bummer...place was so convenient for me.

[Azgunlover69]

Sorry to spoil. There's a spot by pleasant that could use clean up but I'm not available saturdays.
