Outdoor Range Rules & Map

Please Note

The outdoor range may only be used at certain times when supervision is provided. However, shooters may elect to qualify as a Self Supervised Shooter. This enables the member to use the lower ranges at any time that the outdoor range is open. For further information, please click here.

Changing to supervised shooting will require a significant increase in the number of range officers required to allow for adequate shooting times.  Because of this, a few SMGC members and an NRA instructor have volunteered to train, schedule, and manage the newly created position of Range Safety Officer (RSO) certified as such by the NRA.  The number of range officers that volunteer for this position will be directly related to the number of scheduled shooting hours that become available to members.  

Shooting Hours

The shooting hours at the Outdoor Range are as follows:

  • Rifle & Pistol:: scheduled shooting only. Check Lower Range Calendar for shooting times

  • Shotgun: Tuesday & Thursday 5:00 PM -9:00 PM and Sunday 9:00 AM to approximately 1:00 PM (depending on activity level

*check local newspaper for sunset times
Other organized shoots may begin at 9:00 AM with Board approval.

Every member must sign in and sign out when using the rifle and pistol ranges. A copy of range rules will be posted at the gate. Members must lock themselves both in and out of the outdoor range except during scheduled Club events. Failure to sign in before using the rifle and pistol ranges may be grounds for revocation of membership.

About the Gates

The Club controls access to the Outdoor Range through the use of  locked gates.  These gates are secured atall times (except during scheduled Club events) so that unauthorized use of the range is minimized and more uniform application of Club rules for safe range use can be made. NEVER loan your prox card or key to a non-member.
