Not too far from me. My folks live up in Shohola, even closer to you. We could meet up some time for some stump shooting.

This sounds like fun to me, I'm here in Lehman township, Pike county at Lehman Lake .We could have a Tradgang gathering here at our club,we have plenty of room ,roughly about 1000 acres lots of trails and tree stands and borders state forest land,large pavillion  large lodge and much more.There is just  to much snow right now but before trout season starts would be best. and we have some Pope& Young stumps and Boone& Crocket rocks. Fun food fellowship,  Rob H

Hans, you're in a great place.  I grew up not far from there and lived in Wayne County across the river from Hancock, NY for a few years early in my career.  Fantastic whitetail, turkey, and bear hunting.  Very, very good trout fishing and upland bird.  Nice people...

Rob H, I think I know that club. That is a nice area. That would be really some thing if your club allowed a get together there. I guess you don't stump in the snow. Keep us posted if you could host some shooting there. Thanks.
