Picture a carnival midway of live-fire shooting games, only you win guns and expensive gear instead of teddy bears if you do well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Events for rifle and shotgun, and with the latter buckshot and slugs, pump or autoloader.&nbsp; Revolver and pistol. From tricked out space gun with optics and recoil compensators to sub-compact street carry handguns. Individual competition and two-and three- person teams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll find the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinshoot.com\/events\/\" target=\"_blank\">updated rules here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make it a family vacation. (Yes, there are even events for kids.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The atmosphere is like no other match you\u2019ve been to. Targets are bowling pins: you need powerful rounds to knock them all the way off the tables. (I\u2019ll be using .45s for almost everything.) It\u2019s the only match I go to where there are bleachers: the reaction targets make it visual, a true spectator sport.&nbsp; During intermissions, host Richard Davis plays Trivia Quiz with the audience, and the prizes are tickets for a worthwhile drawing at the end of the match. I\u2019ve seen the winners of the drawings leaving in Mercedes-Benz prizes. And, throughout, lots of like-minded people to pleasantly associate with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I wouldn\u2019t<\/strong> miss it.&nbsp; It\u2019s the most fun match there is.&nbsp; Hope to see you there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a reminder, folks: the unique Pin Shoot, formerly known as the Second Chance Shoot, will be held June 14-18 of this year in the quaint resort town of Central Lake, Michigan.
