We were in same place fews back until we had a CTJ meeting over the range problems. Banned wire, string, rope from range due to tangling mower deck up. Removed all nails and eyebolts that accumulated over time. Revised range rules to PROHIBIT non target items such as plastic bottles (glass always banned), metal anything, clay birds (incredible mess from them) and having means to expel those who violate the range rules for acceptable targets and target stands. Emphasized you are REQUIRED to bring your own target stand and targets. Exploding targets prohibited as well.
It takes EVERY MEMBER to enforce range rules. So far, its been huge improvement.
