We'll definitely be recommending to others!

He took his time to explain everything to us in great detail and I mean everything. From discovering which eye was dominant to breaking down the gun and so much more Finally heading to the range to fire the pistols i felt it very intimidating for my wife but by the time Victor finished with us I feel she had more fun than I did but more importantly the lessons we learned are invaluable.

We shot a few of his guns along with his new purchase a Finnish Seka 30.6 which he was very proud of. It packed quite a kick. While setting up another weapon Dominick the Club President came over and we chatted briefly. All very friendly. We shot at 100 yards today. Last time it was at 50 yards. My shots were pretty good according to my buddy. He explained that our groupings were consistent and he showed me how to adjust the sights and windage. It was a lot of fun spending some time doing something that I do not normally do - I am a golfer, and learning some new stuff. I do admit writing this my shoulder is a bit sore. Will return when invited again. Mark.

One minute you're young, single, enjoying life…read more The very next... you're old. With twins (?!) and each year you're trying to find something new and unique for them to experience for their birthday(s). This year I surprised them with... rootin' tootin' (trap/skeet) shootin'. (About a mile before reaching our destination I slipped up and ruined the surprise - which they won't let me live down now!) After driving through scenic and beautiful parts of Jersey (autumn, the colors all around were absolutely stunning) we arrived. It's a mountain. And when you hear those guns going off - it's jarring (for city folk, like ourselves). Yeah - "Thunder Mountain" - is more than a fitting name for this biz. Seven of us (only six are shooting), three generations, and with our most incredible guide/instructor - we were blasting away in no time. We had a clay-zy good time. (Hey, that's the best "dad pun" I could whip up, gimme a break!) Youngest twin was the marksman of the day - 19 of 25. My father-in-law was the least successful - 2 of 25. (The Mrs. and the older twin all did much better than me as well... which definitely dinged my ego, for sure.) It's cash-only. The couple behind the counter at the 'lodge' were very friendly, engaging and no-nonsense. Our guide/instructor really helped to make our afternoon even better/smoother. He was constantly giving us pointers and encouragement and he deserves a raise for putting up with my father-in-law's insistence on refusing to ever yell "pull" (I'm still not sure if it was an honest mistake or him just looking to bust chops) but pretty much any other word that started with a "P". You're given a gun, earplugs and ammo (25 shots in total), rotating after 5 shots/attempts. This was a perfect amount to keep it fresh and interesting and fun. Teens are never impressed, especially if it involves their parents. But the entire ride to Kinchley's (you'll work up an appetite, lemme tell ya) and then home... they could NOT stop talking about how much fun they'd just had and can't wait to come back. (That definitely helped that fragile ego of mine!) PS: the following day I was sore and a bit bruised on my shoulder where the butt of the shotgun rested.
