Tom Synder, the current president of the Vintagers, responded to the parking issue on the Parker site. Parking/camping will be in a lower field, located below the rock quarry. Shuttles I think will be available, and GC rentals are staged in the lower field. It is quite a walk from that location to the venue, so a GC may be necessary. I suspect vender tents will be in upper parking field.
Hidden Hollow is a very nice venue and the June shoot was fun. Not sure if course will be changed, or has, for the Vintagers.

Thanks, I expected a reply from Matth who must be there advertosing man. I checkd Parker site and lower field in reply is the first field off hard road on left and before the quary, and upper field written here is the usual parking field nearby gate to Hollows. Shuttel is no differnt than many year's when Vintaners was at Orvis in NY , and orvis still does shuttels at there own September Cup shoot. why are Parker men complaining when most of them have money for high $ guns? Stop whining and spend a few $ on a golfcart.

Golf carts are a luxury for most of us, a necessity for some. If I have remembered correctly, this is the same vendor and price from the North-East this past June. This course is easily walkable, a few hills, but not too steep, and if you have a rugged gear cart, well...

Golf carts at most bigger shoots seem to be $60-$70/day. It is salty, but Ive heard its the golf cart rental companies that bring all the carts that are the ones doing the soaking, not the gun clubs themselves. Regardless, they have you by the yingyang and it may be actually cheaper than hauling your own cart miles and miles. But, somebody is making the bucks and it sure adds to the cost of what is usually already fairly expensive shooting.
Socialism is almost the worst.

How "serious" is the shooting competition? I have been shooting ATA trap since 1984 and understand how to play the game. At a $1 per target what are the prizes? It sounds like a win gives you a chance at a drawing to win? I have never been to one of these vintage shoots but plan to someday! Last time I was in PA was 1972 at Indian Town Gap, very nice country.

A question that has been asked is... is there a gate fee?
