At Godfrey’s Pond, we pride ourselves on offering a diverse range of shooting sports, catering to enthusiasts of all skill levels. Our facilities are designed to provide a safe, enjoyable, and challenging environment for all participants.
Trap Range
Our regulation 5 position trap range features an electric trap, allowing shooters to practice their skills with efficiency and precision. Please note that participants are required to bring their own clay targets.
Rifle Range
The Rifle Range at Godfrey’s Pond is equipped for year-round use, featuring covered firing points and bench rests to ensure comfort and safety. We offer a variety of shooting distances, including 25-yard, 50-yard, and extended ranges of 100 and 200 yards. The Rifle Range is only closed 10 times a year from 1:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. These dates will be posted on our website calendar as soon as they are confirmed by the Association.
Archery Courses
For archery enthusiasts, we offer two distinct courses:
- Target Archery Course: A straightforward course for those looking to hone their precision and accuracy.
- Field Archery Course: This 15-target course meanders through wooded rolling hills, providing a natural setting that tests both skill and endurance.
Both courses are open year-round, providing ample opportunity to practice and enjoy the sport of archery.
