"We are a family friendly club, encouraging fun and safety and welcoming new shooters."
New shooters get hands-on instruction from a Range Officer at no extra charge. Just let them know you're starting out.
The club features 2 trap fields, 3 skeet fields, and a 5-stand sporting clays field, plus a field house. Safety is non-negotiable—eye and ear protection required for all shooters and spectators. The club enforces strict rules: no shot larger than 7½, no alcohol or drugs, actions open unless on the firing line, and guns always pointed downrange.
Shot shells available for purchase, though California regulations require all shells bought at the club be shot the same day (no off-grounds removal). Reloading components available to members only.
The club has received grant funding from the National Rifle Association Foundation to construct new facilities, modernize existing ranges, and upgrade the clubhouse and utilities.
