    I've been to Jay Henges Shooting Range several times, and until yesterday I would have highly…read morerecommended it. The pricing is great ($5 per hour per lane), and in the past I found the staff helpful, though very rule-oriented, which is understandable at a shooting range. Yesterday, however, was a completely different experience. It was my 19 year old daughter's first time shooting a gun, and she was already very anxious. Unfortunately, what should have been a positive introduction turned into a stressful and upsetting experience due entirely to one staff member. When we arrived, we rented two lanes -- one for my daughter and me, and one for my minor son (16) and an adult male friend. Everyone except my daughter had been there before. When we got to the lanes, staff member Bruce began questioning us. I explained that it was my daughter's first time and that she might need some extra help because she was nervous. Instead of being supportive, Bruce immediately became aggressive and started yelling. He then went over to my son's lane and escalated further, getting into my minor son's face. The adult male with us asked him to please back up and be respectful. Bruce responded by getting into the adult's face and yelling even louder. We asked to speak with a supervisor. Bruce followed my friend to the office and continued invading his personal space until the supervisor finally told Bruce to back up. By that point, my friend was understandably upset and chose not to continue shooting. My son shot a few rounds, but the situation had already soured the experience. Thankfully, another staff member later helped my daughter calmly and respectfully, and she was able to learn how to shoot for the first time in a supportive environment. That staff member was professional and deserves recognition. It's extremely unfortunate because prior to this visit I would have given this range five stars and praised the staff. One person completely changed that. For a new shooter -- especially a young, anxious one -- being yelled at and treated aggressively is unacceptable. Be aware of who is working when you visit. Our experience would have been entirely different had we not encountered Bruce.

    Great success! This was my first time going to a shooting range, so I had a range of emotions…read moregoing. I went with a friend of mine, as he's more experienced than me and had been promising we'd go. We pulled up and I was surprised, mainly because I always thought shooting ranges were indoors (this one isn't). As you can see by my pictures, there's two levels. The lower one consists of shooting for pistols and rifles. The upper level was for trap shooting and archery. We pulled in on the lower level to check in, which was super simple. They have these electronic machines to register and once completed, you go to the attendant to pay. Keep in mind it's cash only! We paid a total of $10.00 (5 a piece) which was a score! After we paid, we drove to the upper level and were greeted by the trap shooting attendant. He went over the rules and gave us pointers to help us be successful. This was only my second time doing this but my first ever doing it at a range. The pointers I got really helped as I hit two, which I never did previously! For hitting the target, I was given this really cool pin! Once we were finished, we used these cool magnet things to pick up the shell casings. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed myself and can't wait to come back!

    I took a concealed carry class with Kevin Cummins and was "blown away" by his detailed and thorough…read moreinstruction. He offered more information than what is required for CC class on firearm training and the legality of having and using firearms. He is a phenomenal instructor and passionate about what he teaches and takes a "personal interest" in your success. He reads his students correctly and endeavors to make sure you get and understand what he is teaching. When you are done taking the class, you know you came to the right place for your CC instruction and are motivated to take more of his training. When it was time to qualify at the shooting range, his instruction on how to hold and sight the firearm, allowed me to hit 19 out of 20 of the shots I took in the center mass of the target! Prior to this, I was a poor shot. When you are looking to acquire your CC permit and want excellent firearm training, I highly recommend Kevin Cummins & his company. I will be taking more of his classes in the future. Brad K.

His class goes above and beyond legal requirements to allow you to conceal carry but adds the real life examples of how to do your upmost to avoid using a concealed carry except where your or your families life is threatened.
