I live in a rural area where I hear gunshots often. Most of the time its off in the distance and people are target practicing outside in their yard.
Sound is a funny thing. Even when its the same person shooting over and over again the sound can get louder or softer depending on how I myself turn. So if I turn a certain way I can hear it much louder than if I turn a different way or move around my own yard.
Sound also varies greatly if the muzzle of the gun is pointed in the direction of the person hearing the sound or in opposite direction of them.
The bottom line is sound of gunshots can vary a lot even if people doing the shooting and the people doing the hearing only move a little bit.
This is supposed to be a viable opinion with a dash of humor. Some one said my posts were to dry and factual.

Believe their statement? I think they are trying to be as honest and helpful but may not be accurate. Everyone makes mistakes.
Thank you. My opinion with a dash of humor.

I was asked to find the number of cars that travel the road in front of Closs Home. most recent I found was WISCONSOn dot completed in 2007 as a preservation study/corridor. No numbers but here’s the gist:
Tier I - study completed in fall 2007
Tier I is located between WIS 35 North (Polk County) to US 53 (Barron County). The project section passes through the communities of Range, Turtle Lake, Almena, Poskin, and Barron.
The need for improvements on US 8 has been determined based on:
- Capacity deficiencies
- Capacity refers to the number of vehicles that can safely travel on a segment of roadway under varying weather conditions. According to traffic projections, volumes on US 8 will increase over 60% by the year 2030. Increased traffic will result in congestion along the corridor and substantial delays for traffic on side roads trying to access US 8.
- Safety concerns
- US 8 has experienced higher than average crash rates in the urban areas of Turtle Lake and Barron. Increased traffic volumes result in longer traffic streams that make it difficult for vehicles to pass or enter the highway from side roads.
- Roadway deficiencies
- US 8 follows a rolling terrain with some sharp curves and several steep hills in rural areas. The steep hills limit visibility at intersections for both US 8 drivers and drivers at side roads. Many roads intersect US 8 midway between the crest and the bottom of the hill.
- I can’t find anything more. Sorry. Typical DOT info.
