NOTE: This is the first and only shooting range I've been to, so I have nothing with which to compare my experience.
THE GOOD
- The prices are right. I do agree with some other reviews that the targets are a bit pricey, but you could feasibly buy these elsewhere and just bring them in if you wanted. Ladies' Shoot Free on Fridays is obviously *very* good pricing for those gun happy women out there.
- The employees are very friendly and professional. I've only shot guns on two occasions - both at Shooter's World. I already feel much more experienced, and never felt "dumb" as they explained how to use and load the weapons.
- Their variety is good enough, but not overwhelming.
- Lane managers keep an eye out on the lanes pretty closely. They've come up to us to ask us to change something we might be doing incorrectly, and always in a firm (but friendly!) manner.
THE BAD
- As mentioned previously, a few items they offer are pricey (namely targets).
THE UGLY
- As with any shooting range, the folks shooting around you can definitely make or break a good experience. I do find that they don't space out folks very well; there will be lots of open lanes, and then lots of taken lanes bunched together. I'd feel much more comfortable having space between me and a stranger wielding a loaded weapon.
BOTTOM LINE: I've been here twice, and I'm sure I'll come again. Ladies Shoot Free Fridays is just too much to resist!
