Thank you Ranger Ricks
For the past six years since moving to VA from CA, I've been enjoying and teaching at Ranger Ricks here in Williamsburg.

Suffice to say, the economy has not been good and Rick is closing down today. Right now.

Thanks Rick to you, and your family, for such a nice place to practice and teach.

Best of luck to you! - EdZ

That is indeed a sad state of affairs.
In this area there are many courses and ranges in deep doo-doo. There just aren't enough people playing any longer. I see lots of old codgers like me at the course, but I don't see those late 20's to 50's players of either gender.
The independent golf shops are nearly all gone as well.

Ed,

Very sorry to hear that. Good luck to Rick, and good luck to you as well. Have you found another place to teach?

No, not yet. Unfortunately that was the only independent range around.
