This sounds like an awful place. I'm sure if you like the structure, monitoring and overreach it would be a good place.
Guess I'm just not cut out for that kind of club. I rarely run into anyone at my club when I go to shoot, even on weekends.
To be clear, I did not say I enjoyed the structure, monitoring or overreach. As I said, most other states outside of New England do not have the numbers of clubs to choose from, it is what it is. The facilities are excellent and there were no other choices so it was that club or nothing.
