We went to Clark county today with Duane and Sandy from Salem. The place is clear north of Las Vegas. It took about an hour to get there. It must have been close to 50 miles away.
The place is huge. I saw a large pistol range, rifle range, skeet, and trap. There might have been more that I didn't see. There was also a big RV area with covered spaces. We didn't have time to see anything but the sporting clays range.
The place is built on a flat, sloping area. There's absolutely no terrain at all. The stands are permanent. Each is made of metal and has three shooting positions. Some are small and some have the positions spaced a few feet apart. They are covered an pretty nice.
The machines are anchored to concrete slabs. They are not movable without a heavy all terrain fork lift. Fixed machines and stands are a recipe for long term boredom.
There are two 15 station courses. We shot the hard one. It wasn't super hard, but there were some challenging targets. Overall the place was nice, but I don't see driving there again.
They asked us to dinner after shooting. So we drove back and put the stuff away. They live at the lake, so we drove there and had dinner and watched football. The dinner was great, barbequed salmon. The Seahawks won. All in all it was a successful day.
