Full description and what we offer
Vail Rod and Gun Club didn't start as a shooting club. It started with sheep, an $18 stake, and a sheepherder's grit in the high country. Four generations of the same family worked 12,000 acres driving wool to Pendleton and other major brands. Today, on 3,200 acres in the heart of the Vail Valley near Wolcott, the shears are gone but the values remain: land stewardship, safety, hospitality, and doing things right.
That heritage shows in every booking. Safety leads every decision. Instruction meets you where you are. Hospitality feels personal, not scripted.
A 5-stand course with 10 target presentations set against sweeping views of Colorado's high country. Targets mimic real animal movement—rabbits darting, birds flushing. Every session includes a full safety briefing, coaching matched to your skill level, and all gear:
Groups of 6 or more require a certified instructor. One instructor can coach up to 5 people.
| Group Size | Price Per Person | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| 5 or fewer | $50 | 1 hour shooting, shotgun rental, 1 box shells |
| 6 or more | $100 | 1 hour shooting, shotgun rental, 2 boxes shells |
| Instructor (optional/required) | $100/hour | Coaches max 5 people |
Over 3.5 miles of private water on the Eagle River, a secluded high alpine lake, and a kids' pond—all stocked with wild fish. Guided, all-inclusive days with gear, flies, and instruction included.

"We had a great time! Made a last minute reservation. Henry and George took great care of our group of four. Some beginners, some experienced. Shot for about an hour. Henry is a killer instructor. His time is well worth the money" — Daniel H
