Shooting outdoors is a great experience. Our members shoot targets at longer distances (up to ~450 yards). Outdoor light is more enjoyable, plus there’s just more room. One big difference between indoor and outdoor ranges is that you usually have to walk down range to set and change targets. Since it’s obviously dangerous to do this while members are shooting— our outdoor ranges has “hot” and “cold” range procedures. 

Building a strong foundation is fundamental to a shooter‘s success. 

There’s always room for improvement especially in sharpening your self-defense skills. Whether you’ve been shooting for a year or a decade, maintaining your skills requires dedication. We suggest optimize your skills at 7 yards. Experience shooters can begin going in 5-yard increments beyond 10 yards. Take time in honing your skills and progress gradually 

In skeet shooting, the goal is to hit two clay targets that are crossing one another. Two target machines are placed 40 meters apart, one at 10 feet high (known as the high house) and one at 3.5 feet high (known as the low house). Both targets rise to a maximum height of 15 feet by the time they reach the field's center. Shooters aim from seven positions on a semi-circular field, with each shooter firing a total of 25 rounds. Traditionally, 17 targets are singles and eight are doubles. According to the National Skeet Shooting Association (NSSA), the original skeet course's half-moon field setup

 The goal of trap shooting is to hit clay targets that are traveling away  from the shooter. These targets are shot in the air at varying angles  using an oscillating machine known as a "house" or "bunker." In this  discipline, the shooters know the target's point of origin but don't  know the target's angle. Not knowing the target's angle creates an  intense challenge for even the most experienced shooters. Trap shooters  shoot five shots from five different points on a semi-circular field.  Therefore, shooters fire a total of 25 shots per round. Shooters rotate around the semi-circle until everybody has completed five shots from each position. .
