This was my first time here, and I enjoyed it. I brought my 17 year old for his birthday, and my 9 year old tagged along. They have a very good orientation that makes using the range easy and safe to understand. We will be returning soon.

This place is great. The range has much offer but the main thing that makes this range a hood place to shot is the staff. Hands down good people and helpful with alot of patience. They'll take the time with anyone to make them feel comfortable shooting and offering advice or education if needed. I'll recommend this range to anyone .

Awesome range. The rangers add an extra layer of safety by closely monitoring the activity. The rules are simple and clear, and it is a great range for newbies as well.

Nice gun range. Staff is very helpful and Safety Conscious. It has 7 yard to 100 yard targets and steel for frangible. Shooting tables are covered to keep you out of sun and bathrooms that are actually clean. Fun and safe place to practice.

We've visited this range on two separate occasions for clay shooting and handgun practice, and both experiences were positive overall. The staff's strong emphasis on safety was reassuring, with strict enforcement of the rules. However, downtime between target changes can be noticeable. While renting a golf cart adds to the convenience and enjoyment of moving between clay stations, interactions with some staff members were less than pleasant, lacking helpfulness and friendliness. Although the range provides shotgun ammunition for purchase, handgun ammo is not available, so it's essential to bring an ample supply. Overall, it makes for a fun day out with friends and I will certainly be back.

Great place to shoot, buuuut one particular range officer was being a bit of a Dbag. I am a very experienced shooter and he was all up in my business. When the range was cold he told me I need to remove my cylinder from my single action revolver so they know it's empty Even though the gate was open showing empty chambers. That is absolutely the most ridiculous thing I've ever been told at a gun range. Than when I was packing up to leave he came over and was making comments on the way I was putting my revolver away in the case commenting about gun safty like I'm five years old. This guy turned a good time with my daughter into a bad time and I don't think we will ever be returning.

Love this range. Normally I go to Cecil Webb for the outdoor shooting but this place is much nicer, cleaner, well organized, etc. Range volunteers are friendly for the most part and helpful. You do pay to shoot here but the extra money is worth it. They sell targets here as well. Great outdoor range.
