Moose Knuckle at the Proving Grounds

The weather is finally winterish here in the northwestern New Jersey forests; with Christmas fast approaching we are hoping for some ice cover to support a serious hard-water fishing trip. In the meantime the crew at Moose Knuckle had near incurable cabin fever over the weekend.

In order to beat the boredom and withstand the cold weather a quick trip to the sporting goods store was in order. I prefer to purchase my ammunition and clay pigeons at the Skylands Sport Shop in Newton, New Jersey. Now I know you may be thinking that this is a fishing blog, and it remains primarily that though at times we like to introduce various aspects of the outdoor recreation scene into the portfolio here.

Now for the anti-gun readers out there I have a nice little firearms quote here from my favorite man of all time George Washington, “The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that’s good.” Like them or hate them I firmly believe every American should know how to safely wield a firearm and that is what we set out to do at the Moose Knuckle Proving Grounds on Sunday.

As you sit there nursing your beer tonight or sipping your coffee tomorrow morning at work reading this blog check out our pictures and either shout or quietly mouth under your breath (depending on the setting), “‘Merica!” Enjoy the pictures while we encourage you to go to the range and practice the safe operation of firearms.
