Default Are any of our friends here members of the Greenbrier Gun Club?

I'm potentially going to be in the White Sulpher Springs area next weekend and always wanted to say I'd shot there. But I believe it's members and guests only?

I’ve shot at The Homestead many times but not over the mountain at The Greenbrier . But just checking their website the prices are a bit cost prohibitive .

I'd pay that to shoot one round and see the place.

I’m sure if you strode into the lobby with your PGCA emblem pinned over your heart you would get the Red Carpet. If you also produced your Life Member Certification they would undoubtedly waive any of their nominal shooting fees and provide a chauffeur for your cart.

I imagine for that price it's a bit stuffy and hoity toity. No thanks, no round of clays is worth that much money. But that's just me who won't pay more than $6 to play golf and it better have a windmill hole.
