Well that is pretty awesome. I drive for over an hour to get to mine and its not nearly so fancy. They don't have very much in the way of rules or restrictions though.

Your place or Brooks?
Click to expand...
My place. Rapid fire is a-okay, double taps, triple taps, mag dumps, even full auto if you got it, very black rifle friendly. Draw from holster is fine. You can do a little plinking on the lanes if you like as long as you pickup after yourself. Clays and water jugs is what seems to be okay.
Pretty much all they ask is whatever it is you are doing you do it safely.

If your interested Rochester Brooks has a drone video of their facilities.
It's a little long and slow but it shows off nicely what they have to offer.
I like the view of the pistol bays @ 6:05

Looks like the newest pistol bay is about ready. Is it open? I don't see any 4x4's set yet.

I gotta find time to hit up the sporting clay course with you this summer.

the new pistol bay has been sitting unfinished for some time now; overgrown, no target frames. Also, Doug stopped by while I was there a few days ago and told me pistol/rifle hours will likely be reduced significantly and dependent on the presence of a range officer all because of some idiots sending rounds over the top of the berms and landing all over the place.

I'd be a member but it's still a bit too much of a drive. One day I may get over that.

That will seriously suck. The pistol bays are 95% of the reason that I joined there.

Goddamit I knew something like this was going to happen. To renew the membership this year everyone had to take a written test and submit the results. It was easy to pass and obvious the questions were based on the stupidity of people in the pistol bays. Rather than restrict all members the management should look to kick out the idiots who don't know how to follow safe shooting rules.

Have you talked to Scott lately about what DeeTV mentioned?

We have pretty much the same freedom within reason. The pistol bays and rifle range are down the road a bit from the trap and skeet fields so as not to disturb the sensitive shotgunners. LOL.

No not since 1st hearing about this from Doug & Scott a month ago.
Talked about installing cameras like Canandiagua GC did but someone shot them.

I'd be fine with cameras if it doesn't cut back the hours or make you have a range officer present. Hopefully they can figure out who the idiots are and toss them. This is why we can't have nice things. :mad:

I use to shoot the steel matches and some IPSC stuff out there. But the club itself **HAD** /HAS a TON OF POLITICS going on. The shotguners don't like the pistol shooters, the trap guys don't like the skeet guys, blah,blah, blah

to much drama for me.

Im a memeber of Four points, better atmosphere, more laid back.

Closed on mondays and tuesdays. Even more annoying is the start time has been pushed to noon on Fridays of all days. Once again, why don't they revoke membership privileges for the people they caught violating the rules?

Left Brooks five years ago and have not had a whit of regret. In fact, with the amount I have saved on dues, I can shoot more, more often.

As another member said this approach is the foundation of gun control in general. The rubes can't be trusted so we have to limit their behavior.
