Sporting Clay

Our sporting clay range stretches a length of 1.6 miles through the woods. It is a newly constructed range with challenging shots through ever changing terrain. We use an electronic clay counting system that allows a single shooter to use the course when the time delay option is selected. There are thirteen (13) shooting stations on the course. We charge $.30 per clay. We have golf carts available for rent at $20 per day.

Trap Range

McHenry offers one trap range that promises to challenge your shotgun shooting abilities.

Skeet

McHenry Range has three Olympic-style skeet ranges on the premises for shooters to hone their shooting abilities throughout the year.

5 Stand

The 5 Stand located in the heart of McHenry Range Facility offers the most unique shotgun shooting experience you will ever encounter. The 5 Stand is built on a pier overlooking a small lake surrounded by sporting clay throwers.  Actual hunting conditions will ready you for hunting season or just test your skills.

Handgun classes, including the Enhanced Carry Permit Class, have been temporarily suspended but will resume sometime in the near future. Steve "Reno" Moore has retired, but he will return on a part-time basis beginning in September. At that time, he will resume teaching all three of our classes. We expect to keep the classes scheduled in their normal sequence, which means they'll be offered at McHenry Range on the fourth Tuesday and Wednesday of each month. So please stay tuned!
