It's Dumb I agree.
Skeet range is on a military base no bending any rule. Other is a public clays course sharply limited by county use permit rules. Basically they let him shoot what he shot before giving him a use permit nothing more. Very specific no pistols rifles or anything but 12 g and under target loads even down to shot size. Nearest house is miles away
My Club range we don't have any firearm restrictions but do have some silly ones. No club shooting past 3 pm on Sunday. Shooting past 3 pm is legal in the county. We have to have a member record all shots heard on Sunday after 3 make the rounds of 14 ranges Rifle Pistol and Shotgun record and confirm the sound did not club from a club range. Use permit does not say we have to go through that process, in fact we do because the local sheriff was showing up at the club gate anytime a gun went off nearby after 3
4th range is public, small scale Sporting clays course on a farmers property. He's been permitted since 1986 with day of the week and time of day limits. Drive down the road to the property several new neighbors, not farmers, city people that have moved to the quiet county, have signs saying "stop the noise" Nothing they can do he's legal.
It's a great clays course, high tower we shoot from several angles, mostly hand thrown targets lot of variety. Shots you don't find on commercial operations with limited space. We can turn or move the hand traps to vary shots week to week. Lucky to have it
Can't wait to get that 10 on tower shots
