shooting
Shooting is the act or process of discharging a projectile from a ranged weapon (such as a gun, bow, crossbow, slingshot, or blowpipe). Even the acts of launching flame, artillery, darts, harpoons, grenades, rockets, and guided missiles can be considered acts of shooting. When using a firearm, the act of shooting is often called firing as it involves initiating a combustion (deflagration) of chemical propellants.
Shooting can take place in a shooting range or in the field, in shooting sports, hunting, or in combat. The person involved in the shooting activity is called a shooter. A skilled, accurate shooter is a marksman or sharpshooter, and a person's level of shooting proficiency is referred to as their marksmanship.
Shooting will be banned on the monument's remaining 480,496 acres.

Last time we went out, we ended up...

They sent me the following...
We would like to schedule a "pre-meeting" one of the following days. In either morning mid-day or afternoon. Please respond on who can come at what time, so we can get the most people possible.
The location will be near deer valley airport.
If WIFI is available, we will set up a Zoom meeting...
