prreed10 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I am curious to what everyone is paying for range dues, for those who belong to a club. Our club has 112 Acres, 8 ranges and about 800 memberships. We pay $75 a year and $25 for a NRA Membership (mandatory). New members pay a one time $100 joining fee that goes into our maintenance fund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve J Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Around here the big landed, member owned and operated clubs run $50-$75 a year for membership. Compare that to the local indoor and outdoor public ranges that sell unlimited yearly shooting memberships for $350. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I shoot in a local indoor club that is exclusively for pistol calibers (handgun or rifle). The range is only 50' with 6 shooting positions. But since it is a private club, I can shoot any time I want and can usually time it to be the only one there, which allows me to set up multiple targets. Dues are $75 + NRA membership + one work day There are also a number of different events and "leagues" that collect a small amount to pay for themselves.

Canuck223 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 My club has 58+ acres, seven ranges varying from 50 to 300 yards. It costs me $350/year plus membership in the Canadian Sports Shooting Association. It's 10 minutes from my door, at the edge of the built up area around Toronto.

XD Niner Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) $250 per year at my local outdoor range which is only eight minutes from my house. It has a 100 yard rifle bay and two 25 yard pistol bays. All the bays have covered and paved shooting areas with tables. It also has a very nice club house and bathrooms. One of the pistol bays has two plate racks, a dueling tree, a new Texas Star and several fixed pieces of steel. It allows runnin' and gunnin' practice although I only do that when others are not present. There are only 500 total members and maybe a couple dozen who really make consistent use of the range so most of the time I'm the only one on the range.

jtielke Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 $300 a year. 11 bays and a rifle range out to 300 yards. The only restrictions on equipment or safety besides using common sense is no 50 cal rifles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooddog Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 $ 300.00 first year and $150.00 per year thereafter. 225 acres+ with nice pond, boat ramp, walking trails, and nice clubhouse. Indoor and outdoor archery, Trap, Skeet, 5-stand, 24 hour access to nice indoor range. 100 yard range, 50 yard range, one 50 foot outdoor, two 75 foot outdoor, plus 3 action pistol bays for use only during matches located at the 100 yard range. (gives us 6 bays to use at matches) Active membership in USPSA, IDPA and all shotgun sports. 500+ members. Due to a bullet striking a house last Oct, access to outdoor ranges is limited to schedule (generally 10 - 4) when RO's are on duty. Many improvments to the range have been done and we are currently putting a no blue sky system in place. We just had all of our members go through a orientation and saftey course before being given this seasons key. Members may bring guests, but only one person in the shooting party may be shooting at any one time. (kind of like a match) A volunteer RO program is in place to man the range. All ACTIVE RO's are able to access the range at anytime as reward for thier time but may only bring a guest if there is an active RO on duty. Because most of the people in charge of the range are active shooters, the restrictions have been limited and the goals set are to create a very safe yet active facility open to all types of shooting.

JimmyZip Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Palm Springs Gun Club is $125 I think. They have 7 pistol bays that run from 70yd x 50yd to 10yd x 40 yd. some of these have long entrances that can be used for long field courses. Two bays have a single Biachi style plate rack and two have two so you don't have to bring your own targets all the time if you just want to shoot the racks. There is a 250 yd rifle range and it and all the pistol bays have shade cover as it is sunny here year round. There are three safety areas. The rifle range has ten shooting stations that are pretty well built. I can set my rifles on them with the bipod and get pretty comfortable. The fee includes a key which opens the gate so you can shoot anytime you wish day or night. I have on occasion seen guys setting up lights with a generator to practice night time shooting. The only thing that sucks is that because of the heat here in the summer, there are no matches in July or August as people just don't show up. But that is cool because if you bring water and food, you can just take over a bay all day if you wish on these days. Im happy so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Norman Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I belong to three NJ clubs. One has 7 short bays (15-50 yards) and one 100 yard bay, a shotgun field plus a 12 bay 25 yard 24/7 indoor range. $ 384 a year plus 12 work hours (work or pay) Think a Dollar A Day to shoot, nt really all that bad in those terms. Good list of varied shooting disciplines. One has a half dozen intermediate bays 100, 200 and 300 yard rifle and general purpose bays a trap range and some other SG arrangements and a 50 foot indoor range. Under $200 a year. and a lot of rules. Good list of varied shooting disciplines. The third is all indoor, 25 yards with 10 positions, and an underground 100 yard range. about $100 a year. Not as many disciplines as the others, but a good group of people. Range from 20 minutes to an hour from home. There are probably at least a half dozen more places with in an hour or two still in NJ and that many more just over the border into PA. Prices in PA are cheaper, so is land. An acre in North Jersey is probably 2-300 thousand or more and a decent starter house is over $300k Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they chose to not renew their membership and have to rejoin they will have to pay the $100.00 again and again and again you get point. But our dues are still way to cheap!

sperman Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 $600 the first year, then $125 a year after that. And this is for a shotgun club that acts like they are doing the pistol shooters a favor by letting us be members. Unfortunately for where I am located the options are limited.
