Family-friendly shooting ranges offer opportunities for supervised, educational experiences with firearms. Preparing for your visit ensures a safe and enjoyable outing for all family members. Our range welcomes families and provides age-appropriate activities and instruction. Following these tips helps create a positive introduction to responsible firearm use for younger participants.
Understand and Follow Safety Rules
Safety is our top priority, and understanding the rules is crucial for everyone’s well-being. Before your visit, take the time to review our range of safety guidelines with your family. This includes proper firearm handling, range etiquette, and emergency procedures. We also provide a safety briefing before you start shooting to ensure everyone is informed and comfortable.
Choose Age-Appropriate Firearms and Equipment
Selecting the right firearms and equipment for family members of different ages and skill levels is important for a positive experience. We offer a range of firearms suitable for beginners, including smaller-caliber options that are easier for younger shooters to handle. Our staff can help you choose the right equipment and provide recommendations based on age and experience.
Participate in Introductory Lessons and Classes
If you’re new to shooting or introducing family members to the sport, consider participating in our introductory lessons or classes. These sessions cover the basics of firearm safety, operation, and shooting techniques. Our instructors are skilled at working with beginners and will ensure that everyone receives personalized attention and guidance.
Focus on Education and Fun
Emphasize the educational aspects of your visit to make it a learning experience for everyone. Our range offers educational programs that teach proper firearm use, marksmanship, and safety. Encourage family members to ask questions and engage in discussions about shooting techniques and firearm care. Making the experience both fun and informative helps foster a positive attitude towards shooting.
Bring Appropriate Attire and Gear
Dress comfortably and wear appropriate attire for shooting. Closed-toe shoes, long pants, and shirts with sleeves are recommended for safety reasons. We also provide safety gear such as ear protection and eye protection, but you are welcome to bring your own if preferred. Ensuring everyone is properly equipped helps maintain safety and comfort during your visit.
