Maybe we can have them change it so there's a 60 second time limit for each cease fire?  That would really get the cardio going!   :wave:

There are no equipment that everyone touches unlike a regular park with exercise equipment. By nature of the activity shooters are socially distant.

They could have temporary rules
Every other bench, wear mask, wipe down area when you're done, etc

Have you seen the benches?  ;)  They're covered in staphylococcus bacteria not to mention lead contamination. That's why I always wear sleeves at the benches. What they need is a good layer of lacquer. Easier to wipe and no splinters.

Open range and can only shoot from the move.  No bench shooting.  Also can shoot from moving vehicle, cause it's in constant motion. No stopping.

Here on the BI the trap/Skeet range is closed,
I'd bet it will not re-open.

petty tyranny. How close are we when we go golfing? How about when we go to the beach? By the openness of the environment we tend to spread out - especially at the vastness of beaches.

They mentioned a bunch of measures, like one person per cart or have to walk.  No scorecards, pencils, etc.  No touching the flag.  I mean I guess it may get people out and spending money, but I think 50/50 people won't bother or people won't bother with the measures. . .

I sent most my life making a living with facts and data.
d(10) = 0
The Derivative of a constant is null, zero, nada.
I picked that as an example of what Democrats
are, a constant that does nothing useful..

I also used perception to motivate people
assigned to work with me.
I am not a good liar, so I don't even try.
Call it negative,  I call it truth, that confirms
the anecdotal data available.

If you want inspiration go listen to a charlatan
politician.
Remember the Derivative
of a constant is zero.

Don't forget; a person that may seem prone to pessimism were once optimists, who now utilizes their accumulated wisdom of seeing the many who have been burned, to always expect and prep for the worst, but still hold out a little for a chance of the best.

It wouldnt make any sense at all for the range to not open this weekend. Each bench is well enough off from each other and people are constantly moving, not just getting a tan on a beach or whatever. I can see them setting limitations on the group size. For example, bringing a group or 4-6 tourist or whomever to share one bench wouldnt make much sense right now. Guess we will see what the range master says.

Thanks for the announcement brotha. Would love to hear a logical explanation as to why it doesnt qualify to open but qualifies to close among state parks. Which prob wont happen.

Logic has nothing to do with this, sadly.

Maybe they're worried if they open the range, we'll call a Range Day and put up tents and shit and invite the public to shoot...

At least over here some of us can shoot on our own property without any neighbors complaining.
Couple days ago I heard a neighbor fire 4 shots at 0630, not the 50 to 100 I occasionally hear in the afternoon.
Must have been the damn pigs in his yard again.

We had a neighbor complain once about shooting on private property.
I had done some work on a Winchester model 94 for a Widow friend.
it wasn't registered.
It was her dead husbands rifle.
Gun was made in 1903 and was a Parker ranch rifle.
She did not want to sell it or I would have bought it in a second.
I had fired four rounds through it, into a pile of dirt.
Somebody called 911.
Police showed up and my wife convinced them
it was pig hunters across the gulch from us.
That is a property police tend not to want to go to.
They left.
We spread the word in our small community.
Somehow they got the message,
or they moved.

Heard the same report.  KHSC was in the same discussion as Hanauma Bay.  I would think Hanauma Bay would be way higher risk than KHSC.

yeah, Hanauma bay means tourists and more crowded than KHSC.  what local people go to Hanauma bay?

The lack of a place to shoot truly grates on me.  I moved to the BI with the expectation of the range up toward Waikoloa being built.

Liberals killed it and now nothing, not going to drive 2 hours to MM16 to shoot.  Manuka was a pit.

One of the many reasons I am getting more serious about moving to Arizona.

The rural parts of the BI is the closest thing you can get to being in a free state.  Not so much in the more populated areas.

I’ve been there once since like elementary school. And that’s when I was dating a girl from Japan and had been wanting to go there. Otherwise, no interest in going to Hanauma.

I knew of a group of investors (local people) that were looking for property on the BI. One prospect was something like 500 acres. And a shooting range was in the plans for development. Haven’t heard from that group in a while tho.

If it was the group I'm familiar with,  they were crushed by the resorts.
That area is close to resorts, and PC runs amok here.
Gun sounds aren't acceptable.
The very best spot is where the cops go to shoot,
but it is private property and the owners don't want the liability.

At least we know where there a lot of cops at one place
at one time and only one way out with really good places to
lay down a grazing fire.

Lots of good places.
The county government purposely won't select them.
