Today was my first visit to the facility as I was searching for a range in Florida that you could shoot at various distance. Everyone was very professional and friendly from the front staff to the awesome Range Safety Officers. I felt welcomed and the staff were super knowledgeable and assisted me in sighting in my new rifle. John was very helpful and an awesome spotter as he dialed me in quickly at 100 yards. DJ was welcoming and took the time to provide me a tour and even motivated me when shooting. If you are looking for a place were the staff pay attention to detail, provide expert advise and professionalism, look no further. Range was very clean and organized and safety was a priority without comprising customer service. I will be back for sure and become a member. A+++

Spent $200 at this range for a 2 hour session, they forced my sister to buy and wear a shirt when there was a group of active duty guys with their girlfriends wearing tank tops with zero issues. Meanwhile I’m trying to teach some of my family members that are inexperienced and this 70+ year old employee starts trying to scold me for hitting the bottom of the target testing my sister factory new out of the box gun that happened to shoot low. He then proceeds to try and talk behind my back and tells another customer if I don’t figure it out he’s going to throw me out or something. Some of my family gave him a hard stare after he said that lol because I was busy shooting on the line. Absolute joke of an establishment literally go to any other range in the state. Only positive thing I can say is they have restrooms and they let you use multiple lanes for no extra charge.

Have been a member here for 2 years and it’s a phenomenal place to shoot. Today they even had a hotdog lady and her hotdogs and bratwurst were delicious.

I went for the first time and had a blast (pun intended ?) The RSOs were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.From check-in, I felt very comfortable as the entire staff is amazing. Shooting outdoors gives you a lot more flexibility than indoor ranges. Tha action range was the best part of the experience. It's the closest thing to real-world you'll get, and it really tests your skills.

Great place to shoot, a lot of options. Long range available out to 600 yards. Range masters are great help. Golf carts are available for the longer distances. Gongs at 300 yards.

Huge thanks to the friendly RSOs at Manatee Gun and Archery Club for a great shoot. Such a clean and well maintained facility combined with helpful RSOs. Highly recommend!

Looks like a really nice place but requires NRA membership, there are way better organizations, which is a nonstarter for me and many people.

I came down today with a few friends to run The Pistol Challenge course. Check in at the main building was easy, Billy had a great attitude. Once on the course I dealt with 2 ROs ( there were 3). George went through all of the safety info, it was very useful & comprehensive. He then walked us thought the course explaining where we would stand a and which targets we would be addressing. After that dry run we did the course hot twice. After each run he & Sydney (another RO), would walk the targets & evaluate each & explain why I may have missed. Their advise was invaluable & definitely help me get on target. George & Sydney were great! They were personable & made it fun. Please don't request them, I'd like them to be available the next time I return.

The only game in town if you want to shoot rifles past 100 yards. The range staff is friendly and helpful. if you have malfunctions, they will help you and have the wrenches and basic tools to do it. They even have spotting scopes and rests on hand if you forget yours and have lower magnification optics.

All around pretty good. For a range that goes to 600 yards at a fair price, it's pretty decent. The target stand, straps and steel targets themselves are pretty beat up. Many people just unloaded their rounds all over the place, hitting whatever they can. Would be nice to see some new wood and targets. I go there regularly for my long guns, pretty cool place.EDIT 5/22/22: Steel and the wood frame are still in terrible disrepair. 2 different RSO's have told me 338LM was ok to hit against the steel. However some ornery, crotchety older RSO gave me all kinds of verbal hell for ringing the steel. I told them I wouldn't be coming back after having father time give me the 3rd degree when he could have politely just informed me. Don't know the guy's name but if the RSO is a real douche then you've met him.

Place is amazing and very fun to shoot. From the lady at the counter greeting you all the way to the range officers were exceptional and knowledgeable and very helpful. We came back for another round of pistol challenge course and it did not disappoint. The range officers Geroge,Sydney,Luis, and Tony. Were fantastic and extremely knowledgeable in all shooting techniques and gave us pointers and never let us get discouraged when missing targets. I have an outdoor range 15 minutes from my house and I drive 1 1/2 hours to come to this place because of the top notch staff! Great place and already planning my next visit! Hats off to the staff and owner on a well put together range.

Great range. Very clean, well laid out and run well.Lost one star dude to the angry old man RSO with some sort of god complex who spent more time shooting than watching the range and proceeded to go on rant that gas guns should not be allowed on 600 range and of up to him he would ban everyone. For a few moments I thought I would have to call 911 as he looked like he was having a heart attack. Everyone else was very friendly and helpful and after moving ranges away from Grandpa I know everything, my son and I had a great time
