New trap system... end of 2023. We have been going to Old Forge for years. Today was our last. After two days of rain the targets were wet and kept breaking out of the traps. There was no one around to assist. We ended up being short 8 targets. I went to the front desk to ask for 8 targets so we can finish our 2x100 round. I was told I had to pay for another 100 target round. I asked how that is, I only need 8. She said their new system didn't allow that. My husband heard her tell others the same thing. I complained about this on FB and told them we would not return. They deleted my comment and blocked me from their page because they don't want people to know about their bad business practices. We were regulars and spent a good amount of money there. We definitely won't be back. Definitely, not a misunderstanding on my end. I asked several times for clarification, and how we could get a few more targets to finish our round. We got the same answer multiple times that the new system only would allow to sell a 100 taget round. Their new system only sells you the targets you need for a round plus demo(16 stands x2 traps each) and 12 misbreaks or trap issues. So, for 2x100 that's 244 targets. If you run out of targets you have to pay for another round. We liked Old Forge because they had people for trappers and if there were issues it was resolved. Now it's on the customer.

This place was amazing and accommodating! Everyone including the guests were friendly, and willing to help with advice and explaining techniques. We really enjoyed it and will definitely return. For any first timers, going to shoot clays know that the setup is very easy to use. Thank you all for the hospitality and a great time.

First time at Old Forge, first time on a sporting clay range. Great first experience and will be back. It's a nice facility with many stations - not going to bore you for sure. Andrew rode with us, and he was a welcome addition to the day as our trapper.

This is a great place and I enjoy shooting here! I have mostly been used to pistol and rifle shooting, but decided to check this place out when I finally got around to trying some shotgun shooting. The folks are friendly and the property is very nice! They have shotguns for rent and everything you'd really need if you don't have your own gear yet. They have instruction options if you call head and make arrangements. Be sure to bring a few extra bucks along to tip the trappers! Great place!

I simply do not understand why this range does not mark the working stations? Extremely frustrating for someone that doesnΓÇÖt shoot there all the time. Maybe the regulars just know what stations are up and running.

We had a great time! Trevor guided us. He was helpful, friendly, and fun to be around. A few of my shipmates from the Coast Guard weΓÇÖre looking to fire some rounds and we sure got to do so. The weather was perfect. Great place for family too!

Targets are varied and numerous, 30+ stations. Course loops through the woods and is mostly shaded and easily walkable. Visited on a "feels like 100+ August day", the heat and bugs were bearable. They have release buttons for single shooters and golf carts. The staff is friendly and helpful, I would love to visit again.

Top-notch facility! We had the pleasure of having Rick as our guide. He was great, three of the six in our group and never shot a gun By the end of our session everybody had hit a clay! Highly recommend this as a great way to spend a day.
