Went up and shot a round of 50 while in the area for a MenΓÇÖs retreat at The Cove. Had a great time. The course was challenging and presented the clays in a variety of ways. Will definitely be going back. Property was nice and neat, walked the course, and the owners are super nice and welcoming. Go shoot and enjoy!

Went here for both my bachelors weekend as well as a friends. It was a great time on both occasions. Well designed course with every type of approach you could think of. I canΓÇÖt wait to think of an excuse to head back that direction for a day of shooting clays with my buddies.

A beautiful winding drive through Marion County ends you up at Fowler Farms. The family that runs this course clearly takes pride in their work. They are extremely friendly, willing to explain and help with anything you need from borrowing eye protection to renting a gun to shoot the course. They even have cart rentals if you want to skip walking the course it have physical limitations. I havenΓÇÖt shot clays in over a decade so I tagged along with some friends on a laid back Saturday. The course itself is very well marked and maintained, winding along a canopied old logging trail. I would bet that even when they are busier than they were that day, the spacing and pacing of the course works great with a higher volume of shooters. It was a lot of fun to watch my friends do the course (they shot 50 clays each though there is the option to do 100 and even pay $0.50 per clay over those limits if you want to) and while I donΓÇÖt have a ton to compare it to, the cost was very reasonable. We will definitely be back again soon!

Shot some sporting clays for the first time. Greg and the rest of the staff were so welcoming and helpful. They put you at ease and take time to patiently get you started and explain fun safety and shooting techniques. The area is picturesque. Could not have asked for a more positive as a first timer.

A large group of us had a fantastic afternoon shooting at Fowler Farms. The Fowler family was as welcoming and helpful as can be. And many thanks to Jon Parrish who graciously took time to show us the ropes. A perfect way to spend a Spring afternoon.

Well maintained course, challenging but not frustrating, and the older gentleman that works the desk is quite pleasant.

The Fowler family delivers a great afternoon! My son and I hit this place every few weeks - reasonably priced at about 1/5th the price of the Biltmore per person. We invite friends every time we go, when we get them out from Asheville, Waynesville or Leicester, they alwaysl eave saying they're coming back for more. 11 stations for a round of 50 or 100 clays - 50 being plenty for us. Great price on ammo if you don't have, or even if you do, its cheaper than you probably payed. There are golf carts to get you around, or easy enough to walk with a push cart for your gear. They even rent fine shotguns if you're a first timer or traveling. Mrs. Fowler was born on the property almost 8 decades ago, and both she and Mr. Fowler are super nice, welcoming, and a wealth of information. Spend an afternoon in the country, and have a nice meal at either Trust General or Dave's 209 just down the road. Appalachian charm and hospitality at its finest! I wish they were my parents! :)

My friends and I had such an awesome experience here. Jon was an A++ instructor and guide. My girlfriend had never fired a gun before and he helped her not only feel comfortable but also get halfway decent by the end of the day. Amazingly beautiful landscape, and great variety in the clays as well.

ItΓÇÖs a great place to come out and shoot sporting clays. The course is fun and itΓÇÖs a nice walk through beautiful scenery. The staff is very helpful and they even have other guns to rent so you can try out different ones. We will definitely come out here again!

Nice course with targets that will test your skill level. Only negative is the cart paths are not maintained very well. They are full of ruts, my shotgun bounced out of the holder a couple of times while riding from station to station.!

We had a ton of fun. We liked the competitive aspect of the course. Only thing that wasn't as great is some of the throwers were malfunctioning. One (course 4?) went straight into a tree half the time.

Fantastic setting and great layout. Some challenging stands, but you want that in a good sporting clays course. If you want a lesson, ask for Jon Parrish - top notch certified instructor who can work with 1st time beginners through advanced shooters wanting to improve theyΓÇÖre game. I highly recommend him . He really helped me score much higher

Tucked away in beautiful Hot Springs is this little gem for those who love to go pew pew with their shot gun. ItΓÇÖs a bit of a drive from Asheville, but itΓÇÖs 100% worth it! Beautiful drive to this familyΓÇÖs farm thatΓÇÖs open to the public a few days a week for shooting sporting clays. The Fowlers are all so humble, kind and so generous. My husband and I just spent the afternoon shooting at all 11 of their stations. There are some easy ones. IΓÇÖll have to say 2 and 10 are pretty tough. One of them has a rabbit which was awesome. Pricing is very fair also. All in all we had an outstanding time and highly recommend going!

Fantastic spot for some fun recreation. A group of old friends went for a few hours and just had a blast - all pun intended. Very friendly and helpful folks. The area is beautiful but a wee bit hard to get to. Once you arrive, it's a great place and a lot of fun!!
