I would be VERY surprised to see ANY shooting club allow drinking during the event. I'd love to see the link to the club that allows that.

Shooting is not dangerous any moreso than driving or flying or scuba diving.
But like those activities, being impaired mentally in ANY way while participating in shooting sports can lead to serious and instantaneous consequences.

Drink while bowling a few games if you like and the worst thing that can happen to you is to get thrown out if your behavior gets nutty.
But any organized shooting club that allows drinking at all is asking for a big $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ lawsuit for even a minor injury if done by a "drinking" participant (whether "drunk" or not).

And this has nothing to do with political correctness. It's just plain common sense.
