Pickens County IDPA (a.k.a. Deliverance IDPA) is held at the Pickens County Sportsman’s Club. It is located between Jasper and Ellijay. Click here for a web map. It is not easy to find and you should probably go with someone who has been there before. Old Jones Mountain Road is dirt. So you will turn off the pavement and go past some Deliverance shacks (they are where the name came from) and then into the range.
Mike Benedict is the Match Director. You can contact him through his web site at Talon Tactical.
