Excellent on all parts - especially the interviewing Baylor kids part.
As you probably know, I am now emeritus so I have plenty of time for range work and can
easily rearrange my schedule around yours. Please do toss me a PM next time you plan to be here.

Did you know that Baylor used to have a range in the union building? Mrs DocV, a Waco native, says there was also a range in one of the buildings downtown.
Congratulations on the next phase of your career and life! That's awesome.
I'm actually posting this from the Sid Rich building. It's changed a lot since I was last in this building in 1991 or so.
I'll definitely send you a PM for my next visit.

As far as a range in the SUB... wow. And today Baylor posts 30.06/.07 signs. :grumble
I'm not surprised, but hate to see them.

I used to buy my archery gear there. When I was a student in Waco in the early 90's, they had an archery range, but nothing with firearms that I remember.

This seems like money left on the table for somebody. If I can convince my wife to live in Waco, which thanks to Chip is more likely these days :lol: , I may open one myself!

I was very upset because I was a senior at Baylor that year and could no longer bow fish at Trading House Reservoir.

That’s very nice of you. I’d like to take you up on that.
I’m heading to Waco today but won’t have any free time on this trip.
Next time up, I’ll send you a PM. :tiphat:
We met years ago. It would be good to see you again!

I interview Baylor kids and come up as an alumnus somewhat often. I was shocked at not seeing a range as an option with all the new development in Waco the last several years.

And yes. We should start a new Fixer Upper regarding a nice range!

How is it possible that Waco is lacking an indoor range??

I can’t find one online. The nearest is Temple?
Is this true? How is that possible?

I may move to Waco, and open an indoor quality range. Chip and Jo can build me a house. :lol:

Is there one I’m not finding?
