Hawks Ridge Gun Club has a new up and running updated website.....don't be too critical this was my first attempt at creating a web page. Most of the pictures were taken with a cell phone so the quality isn't that great. Hopefully as this shooting season starts the website will get better...be...

Tom Lackey passed away yesterday. Tom was a great friend and one of the "Backbones" of the Hawk's Ridge Club! Tom was always doing things to better the club.......a dang hard worker for 74 years young! Tom also helped run matches and always helped to improve The Blue Ridge & Pistol Club. Tom...

Bill all the Hawks Ridge boys will keep you in our prayers through these tough times. Hope to see you soon. Alvin

OK this is an opinion from a long time 1000 yard shooter. First off I only use a Jeunke machine on boattail bullets. I set the center of the boattail on the left ball on the Jeunke and run them this way. I think it tells how concentric the boattail is to the bullet body. In my opinion the...

Larry was one of those shooters that was interesting to talk to at a match and to see what kind of new combination he was going to try. The man loved to shoot!

Night Match If you have never experienced a 1000 Yard night match or had Hawks Ridge World Famous Pit cooked chicken halves, you have not lived life to its fullest! Dig them long range guns out and come for some fierce competition! The fun starts at 9:00 Saturday morning. Alvin

"maters" Joe I rounded up some good looking "MATERS" and some "Dukes" Mayonnaise,so don't forget the bread. We should have plenty for anyone that wants to eat lunch with us! Should be there Friday by 5:00 Alvin

Joe Saturday's match was just like old times. We had new shooters and old shooters with the old shooters still hanging tough! So you would have been in the running, since you are no stranger to the wind blowing in several directions at once. We had more than 50 guns with a lot of shooters...

Joe Saturday will be 57 degrees and clear. We will shoot 1 heavy gun,1 light gun and 1 factory gun match. Our first double matches will be June 15 & 16. Joe, you and any of the Pennsylvania clan are always more than welcome at Hawk,s Ridge. The guys at range are already making plans to come up...

Hey Joe bring the Pa gang down sometime for some more good times at the Ridge. Were having a IBS "NIGHT Match" in July. Shooting 1000 yards under the lights is a experience that you will never forget! We will see how all the small caliber shooters fare with the winds that seem to always blow at...

Jim Corbett's books about hunting man eating tigers.

Congratulations Thomas. Good things always come to good people! Doesn't hurt to be a great shooter either! Alvin

Joe You know what they say about blind squirrels. Maybe it does come in a can!

Matt I am planning on coming up this year and maybe bringing a few of the oldtime shooters. You,Joe,Ray,Matt D.,Russel,Phil,and so many others make the World Open one tough but fun shoot! We have always enjoyed the hospitality and friendship you guys have sent our way.

Charles I don't think that a new shooter will have enough experience to worry about points. Let's have something better than those 25 cent pins that you get now for a relay win. Anything you can give them to put in their hands to show off means more than points. If all the fusing ever stops I...

Joe The points system regarding relay points has been a sore subject from 1995 and will continue from now on unless the powers that be wake up. Like I suggested its a simple fix. Like a dog that chases cars if he caught it a dollar and the car might get him a can of dog food. The same goes for...
