I live at snowshoe and shot the course last year and you don' t have to qualify to shoot in the trophy class. You should expect steep trails and low light conditions. In a lot of spaces you cannot see the ground between you and the target so you cannot always look at the ground to judge your yardage. It is also hard to get your footing at a lot of the shooting pegs. I set my pins at 20,25,30, and 35 yards. You can expect to see shots at all of these ranges. The course is set up really well and it is a lot of fun. Have a good time.
