Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I am a Standard Member but out of guess passes. How does pricing work if I have a guest but no more guest passes?

A: If you are out of guest passes but have a guest shooter the charge for them to use the range with you is $10. That is a $5 savings over what they would pay if they were not with a member.

Q: Can I purchase additional guest passes?

A: Guest passes are not available for sale. We issue 6 per membership each calendar year.

Q: Can one of my guests use the range if I am not present?

Q: Can my guest and I have two lanes?

A: Yes. When you bring a guest shooter over the age of 18 in with you we are happy to issue your guest their own lane. During times when it is busy we may request that you share a lane to make range use more convenient for everyone.

Q: How do reservations work?

A: We require 24 hours advanced notice on reservations. Each member may reserve one lane. We will not reserve lanes for non-members or guests of members, however if space is available we are happy to issue separate lanes at the time of check in. Lane reservations will be held for 15 minutes. If the reservation is not filled within that time frame it will be pulled. Reserving specific lanes or adjacent lanes is a request we accommodate when possible – however it is not guaranteed. Reservations are subject to availability and not taken on holidays or event weekends.
