Always my #1 recommendation for a gun range. They have…read moregreat prices - the range fee covers the whole day, however long you'd like to stay. Unlike other places that only allow 45mins to an hour. They have firearms for rent and for sale. It's FAMILY OWNED, and takes good care of their employees. It's also a woman owned business - I always love that. They have a shotgun range, a .22 steel target range, pistol range, a rifle range, and a private shooting bay that you can rent if you have a small party of friends or want to do some private training/lessons there. My favorite thing about it? It still embodies the old Texas spirit, it's a true Texas experience here.

My fellow Army veteran buddy and I came here to qualify for our LTC…read more Our instructor Cecil was totally professional and encouraging. My buddy and I qualified first time go. So that was satisfying. They provided the instructions on everything and discussed safety in detail. In my opinion the staff were totally professional ans made sure safety was a priority. I didn't feel unsafe at all while qualifying here at this range. I would recommend this place for outdoor range shooting.

Whether for defense or for competition, Steve will empower you with the knowledge and skills you…read moreneed to reach the goals you have. He will challenge you and teach you what you wanted to know and what you didn't know you needed to learn. He will take the time to breakdown the most minute of movements to ensure that each shot you take is as accurate as it can be. He has the patience of a saint, and a great sense of humor that relaxes the student so you can concentrate on the lesson and not the self-doubts and hesitancy at learning new things. If something is not working for you, there is always another way! You will not regret trusting Steve with your training.

Laid back, outdoor range. Many options of targets for sale , from $1 per on up. Went on a Friday…read more RSO only at the pistol range 2-3 times the hour we were there. If you're not versed in safety and such, consider going with someone who is. It was hot (August), but the breeze was nice. You can move your target any distance you'd like. I'll go back as I much prefer outdoor over indoor ranges) (I must say, this is the 1st range I've been to that actually noted our start and finish time. Not sure if we'd have been charged more had we gone over our allotted hour)

This training ranch is a hidden gem! Secluded and away from distractions yet close enough to…read moredowntown Marble Falls for a post-training bite and brewski. The country-drive to and from here is beautiful. It's quintessential Texas Hill Country! So when I say hidden, I mean, Jeff or one of his assistants must meet you at the front gate next to FM 1431. From there you'll be escorted up to the training area. You just have to follow Jeff/his assistant up the fire road leading to the grounds. When we met up with him he was driving his UTV. I suggest you drive a vehicle with decent ground clearance on the day of. No need for a 12" suspension lift or anything crazy like that, just ensure you're not driving a low slung vehicle like a sports car during your visit, LOL! Note: The ranch (actually a few ranches) shares a front gate with Hidden Falls Adventure Park. When you arrive at the grounds you'll notice it's next to Jeff's residence. How awesome is that?! Wake up, pour some coffee in a sippy cup, hop on the UTV and shoot a few rounds at some silhouettes or steel before the rooster even sounds the alarm! Wooohoo! I'm not a jealous kind of guy but... Anyhow, yes, Jeff's training was spot on! I won't go into the details. No spoiler alerts here. But like most valuable training you must first learn the basics and fundamentals before the more advanced techniques can be explored. Think of firearms training like a house. If the foundation is less than sturdy, no matter how great the house looks above the foundation, once some rockin' begins, the house will falter. So get the fundamentals mastered to avoid faltering. Besides firearms instruction, he can provide a Texas DPS accredited Texas LTC course. I already had my LTC but my much better half returned to complete the LTC program soon after. BTW: The safety brief and lunch breaks are held in his air conditioned living-room so please be southern-comfort mannered. =) Jeff is a great and patient instructor. That is important especially because folks learn at different paces. Some learn slower than others but that's ok. Heck, I didn't know I was tying my shoelaces incorrectly until I was in my early 30's! No wonder my knots would always come loose, LOL! Have fun y'all but most importantly, be safe!i
