I'm considering 2 four shooters, I've heard mixed reviews on the retired gun feature. Some love it, others say it's a pain to set up and blows over easy.

You will learn shortcuts to setting it up. Experience counts. A pain to set up? Not for me.
Will it blow over in a strong wind? Yes it will. How many windy days do you have? Just use the retired gun feature on non windy days. I'm not trying to "open a can of worms" here, but you have probably noticed that it is not a perfect world. I've seen a few wingers blow over with enough wind.
You can also make a couple of U shaped stakes, with one side longer than the other, and place the U shaped end over the opposite corners of the BB base, and drive it into the ground. That will hold it.

Cray,
I'd love to, but you are a little outide of my driving range for training.
BB's can be staked down, similiar to wingers.
I'll make a suggestion to the BB folks about this issue.

Richard,
Feel free to contact me if you are ever traveling through the area, we can train if you've got an extra day or 2 or if you just need an area to air dogs...or want to stop and have a bite to eat.
