My kids have shot this the past several years (the archery and .22 rifle portions- Eldest daughter beat two BOYS in her age group in the trap event last year)....  even though it is a bit of a drive for us.

Looks fun, I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to start shooting sports.  I had a blast in 4-H shooting when I was a kid...I actually won the air rifle class in a few county level matches.  I can't remember if I ever went to Holt county, but I grew up in in Antelope and shot there as well as a few other places.  I thought I was pretty hot stuff until I tried out for the .22 Junior Olympics team.  Then I got schooled :-[
