Pro Tip: It is best to reserve a lane at least 2-4 hours before they close. They book up fast, especially on busier nights! The facilities are consistently clean, though the trash bins inside the range can occasionally get overfilled with cardboard targets- honestly not a big deal, just a minor observation! We really appreciate the wide selection of rental firearms and the variety of targets, which turns our range time into a fun, competitive game night. Don't be fooled by the first room you walk into; the facility is actually massive. They have a great restaurant with both indoor and rooftop dining (and great drinks!), as well as outdoor ranges and archery. The location is also very convenient as it's tucked away from busy roads, making for a stress-free drive. Considering the current climate, the pricing feels fair. I'm happy to pay for an environment that is clean, safe, and respectful. We love coming here and enjoy the experience every time!

It was overdone a bit drying out the bacon and quail. I had elk chops for the main and was just as excited for those. I asked for a medium rare cook. That is the way to go with such a lean meat. They cooked it perfectly as it was nice and juicy. The sear/char was also great. I was left wanting a little more seasoning on the chop. In all a good meal just could improve on some of the details.

After talking with other colleagues at work, I decided to put together a small group of us to get a class going. Fast forward to Friday, December 15th, 2017 at 5:30pm. Myself and 5 other teammates came to meet "Chief" & "Apollos" to take their most basic class called the GAFASTA Basic Pistol Training" Class This class is a 2 part course where we do the classroom training first at the office. Followed by going out to a shooting course. So, let us start with the classroom training. Here we learned a few main rules including NO LOADED WEAPONS IN THE CLASSROOM. From there, we went over some basic safety issues, such as pointing the gun forward, as well as how to hold the gun properly. We learned the '5 step process to shooting', which is from the holster to 'stabbing out'. Stabbing out is the process when you are aiming the gun down at the target. We also learned that sometimes people are not eye dominant to where they thought they were (righty people were left eye dominant, and vice versa). Lastly, we learned how to take a part a gun rather quickly, as well as assemble it with ease! On Sunday, we went out to Chief's private ranch up in Monroe, GA. This is a huge lot with lots of trees and scenery. The steaming lake running through the front to the birds chirping in the background. Walk down another hundred feet or so, and you are at the shooting range where they have water barrels and targets approximately 5m away. Here, we were taught the proper way of sighting, gun control and most of all, SAFETY. They cannot emphasize that enough...safety is key! Keep all guns pointing down the range. Keep all bullets out of the clips, keep the gun on the barrel until called. Overall, this experience was better than any other class that you'll ever experience. Though it is listed as a 'beginner' class on paper, this is far from a beginner class irl! Come check him out, as this was an amazing experience, and we (as a group) cannot wait until next class when we take the intermediate class!
