Knob Creek is supposed to be good. But, The Big Sandy Shoot is in AZ about an hour west of my place. It happens twice a year and this fall was last weekend.

Have I been to it? NO. Seems I remember too late or I am already booked for something. :cry:

If'n ya get a hankering to visit The Big Sandy, let me know and we can work something out.

Ya forgot the Frazier History Museum! This is a museum this forum's members should not miss. Plan the best part of a full day to do it justice.

Does one get extra points if ones first pilgrimage (Spring '14) included getting into the gunshow early all 3 days, shooting on the line Friday and Saturday, oh and also parking pass on Saturday? Yeah my first time was nothing short of amazing. [strike]thats what she said[/strike]

I've been there. Spent an entire day between there and the Louisville Slugger Factory across the street. The Patton Museum is pretty good, too.

I REALLY want to attend a Knob Creek event, but it will take some time.

Science Museum is next door to Frazier. Also good.
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.
