anybody belong to this, or shoot with them or anything? I am not too far (about 25 minute drive) from their range and I am thinking about joining. Want to get an insiders view first before I spend the money on it.
Hows the facilities, is it always windy out there?
How much space do they have for p-dog shooting?
any other info greatly appreciated.[Beer]
PM coming your way.
got it and shot you an email!
thanks[Beer]
Is that a good or bad thing concerning this range?Quote:

We'll be posting more info on what these plans are soon but first, we need to have our current members vote to approve the changes (and no, we won't have an increase in the membership rates).

Well, please share when you know more because I'm definitely curious.
What does WHAC mean?

Any other opinions or insights to WHAC? I too am considering joining and would love to hear current members experiences. I am curious if it's usually windy out there. Thanks!
The FAQ page is down, where is it?
Since I am part of the WHAC management team I am going to hold back on giving any opinion on the range because, if I did, you know that it would be tremendously biased in favor of our organization. :)Quote:

We have been working on updating the webpage and the FAQ page was moved. It can now be found here: http://www.wildlifehunters.com/faq.html However, there is some information there that is going to be reviewed in the coming weeks so I invite you to come back and read these changes.Quote:

I'm not real keen on the 'pay us, then we'll give you directions' way of doing business.
To be perfectly honest, neither am I. That is something that got started by the previous owners and that we have moved away from. This is one of the topics in the FAQs that is scheduled to be rewritten. The new management team has only been in place for less than two months are there are many club-related issues that we have been working on, sadly, updating the website hasn't happened as fast as we wish it could have been done.Quote:

Any changes to the "No guests" policy? I don't see the point of being a member some where if you can't use that space to try and introduce new shooters. Seems like a great way to cut down on membership to me. Also, any discounts for NRA membership?
Sorry but no, our insurance policy precludes us from extending the shooting range benefits to non-members. We do have a monthly Defensive Pistol Match and a Bowling Pin Match that are open to the public and these are a great way to safely introduce new shooters to the sport.Quote:

Currently we only offer discounts to Active Law Enforcement and Military Personnel but not by condition of being an NRA members. Most (if not all) of our members are also NRA members but that's because we choose to support an organization that promotes the shooting sports and our RKBA.
I figured it had something to do with insurance. I'll have to look into the shooting matches.
