Default sight in day?

Does anyone on here have a local sport shop or club that offers a turkey gun sight-in day? My buddy that own his own shop offers a sight in day at his shop. He supplies the targets, earplugs, safety glasses and sand bags. We set up a 20, 30, 40 yard targets and a shooting bench. We also put a 45yd target out for the 50/50 shoot, who ever gets the most pellets in a 3" dot wins a custom box call. Oh, everyone has to use the same load, a 2 3/4 #5' s in the 50/50 (unless someone slips in a 3.5 by accident of course)

He puts out three brands of ammo in 4, 5 and 6 shot. If you want to try a different load, you buy the shell for a dollar. I' ll switch out he targets and write the yardage, shell size, shot size and pellet hits on the target. He' ll also have different chokes on hand for a variety of guns so that someone can try a tube before investing in one.

It' s a great time and everyone benefits from it. After the sight-in he holds a turkey seminar with a Wood Wise rep and offers food/drinks for everyone attending. Fun of everyone is what' s it all about
