There is going to be an accident there soon. The RC Airfield doesn't even comply with AMA security rules. - but requires an AMA membership card (don't know how the insurance piece of it works since the place doesn't even comply with AMA regulations). Chart defining flying area actually allows pilotos to fly over spectators, other flyers working on their crafts, parking lots and service roads. Officials at the club have a total disregard for security and public in the area. They couldn't care less. Park personal has no involvement in the operation of the airfield.
One of the range officers was condescending and acting like a Marine Corps drill sergeant. You should bring both ear plugs and muffs, as the range is very noisy since they combine pistol and rifles in one side. Some people may like this, but I thought it was cramped and way too noisy. You also have to be careful with the steel target stands they provide that are full of rust with sharp edges that can easily cut you when you are placing the target on the stand. Yes, you have to do this yourself with some masking tape they provide. Bring your own targets, as you only get a cardboard for the admission price. You will also have to pick up all of your brass/shells regardless of whether or not you shot it. My lane was full of shotgun and 45 ACP shells, which I did not bring to the range, yet I had to pick them up, because they fell on my lane. Trail Glades in Miami is much better!
Got invited to Sporting Clays, "PUULLLL". Amazing experience, knowledgeable staff. It will become routine
SAFE, 100 yd long, outstanding Range Officers, other users are friendly and attentive to the range rules.
I do a lot of different shooting sports , but the most fun I have is the trap range. great time to meet fellow shooters , more exciting then any of the other shooting disciplines and the Range Officers are a mix of friend, advisor and coach. still haven't gotten my 25 for 25, but enjoy the time spent just as well.

Knowledgeable, helpful, staff keeps the range safe and has provided me with sound advice both in technique and firearm mechanics.
Learned to fly here about 35yrs ago. I was 20yrs old. RC airplanes have become a passion ever since. I have made some great friends. So have left us, but their memories remain. I absolutely love this place. So many memories and more to come. It's a beautiful parkland airfield. I am blessed it's 15 min from home. LOVE IT
During my first visit, I loved the place. There are trails to walk with your dogs, and the dog park is big, clean, and has plenty of seating and shaded areas.
I love this range and the officers are very friendly and kind. Great place to practice rifles at longer ranges not typical of most other ranges out there. I only wish it was open on Friday, I think that would help to reduce the wait times which at times exceed 1 hour…
Went there for the first time yesterday, pleasant experience with nice and professional range officers. I like that they have a speaker system so you can hear the commands pretty easily while wearing your protection. Only downside is the waiting time: easily 1 + hours. Be early if you want to beat the crowd.
Excellent range officers. Helpful, pleasant and knowledgeable. Sadly, not enough of them and this means half of the range is closed. The range has tried very hard to recruit more staff.
The shooting experience is great and i wish they also had 200 and 300 yard ranges, but I have no complaints and heartily recommend this facility.
