So the “club” decides when the weather is not suitable?. I would think that should be up to the shooter to decide. Our club is open year around. Members can go shoot skeet (for example) anytime they like (but may need to use the snow blower first). Those that think it too cold are welcome to stay home. Participation is voluntary.
Funny, just yesterday I was pondering what it would cost to build an indoor skeet range snd what would make the best building material.
Yes, trap and skeet require someone to operate and load the machines, for liability and reliability reasons, only the chair and a few designated people are allowed to operate the machines.
Makes no sense to leave everything hooked up for an occasional shooter. Our members have zero interest in shooting once the cold weather sets in so why spend $ on plowing, hydro etc. for maybe one shooter to come out on occasion? Makes no sense. We can pull our machines out while nothing is going on and have our servicing done during the closed time of year and get plans together for our scheduled shoots for the upcoming season.
