It is a wonderful sign that the Biltmore Estate, which is pretty much ground zero for all things upscale elegant and refined in the South, has acknowledged the shooting sports in this way. I also note with extreme approval that children are welcome to participate.


The website says nothing about bringing your own shotgun and it says nothing about shooting the course without taking the class. I have an email to the Estate asking for clarification and will post any response which I receive.
