Got invited to go to Cherokee Rose south of Atlanta on Sunday for a Helice shoot. Talk about fun! Some of the Helice target flight paths would have made Phil Neikro proud Super nice facility and well managed. Looking forward to going back soon.
Picked up a few Helice targets in between rounds (cranks) and was amazed at how much punishment they could take before separating in two (the objective is to shoot the target and have the white witness cap separate from the orange propeller and land inside the fence). I believe I had 3 or 4 targets that when shot separated but landed outside the fence due to wind/momentum/shooting it later than I should have all of which counted as lost birds. Also had a couple that I shot the orange propeller blades off but the white witness cap stayed intact and those counted as lost birds too.
Overall a great day at a great facility.
