I like golf.

 

[Cemetery-man]

Pretty much every town has a golf course so why not a gun range also in every town?

 

[eldirector]

I thought every town HAD a gun range?

Danville has one, Avon has one, Speedway (MCFG) has one, Indy has several, etc... Central Indiana is doing pretty well.

And everyone is required to open carry!!!

 

[GIJEW]

gungolf--like: tee up and "pull!"? Could get challenging if there's a novice behind the golf club, slicing hard left and right

And everyone is required to carry a 1911!

i'd like to see one in the fishers, noblesville area. Its either Tims in westfield or Beech grove for me. The drive sucks. And the closest free outdoor range is wilbur wright. ridiculous.

Well Beech Grove does not have one anymore dang it!

Maybe we can get government to eminent domain more land in every county and levy taxes on every individual to pay for more ranges. After all, it's for the public good.

Hopefully Point Blank in Carmel will be a nice new place.

Thanks for showing up with that usual anti government jib. By the way, anyone but Hillary in 2016.

FIFY

[Redtbird]

It'd be nice if somehow, someone, sometime, open a range somewhere in Monroe County.

 

[RustyHornet]

I've always thought it would be cool to have an INGO range. Could all chip in to fund it.

 

[shunsley]

Is there a place to shoot 50bmg

We do need more gun ranges. Long range gun ranges. If every golf course went from 18 holes to 16 and then turned the two longest holes on the course into rifle ranges, I'd start golfing again. Imagine how much fun it would be to pull out your favorite long gun instead of driver on two of the holes. In fact, they should make the two shortest pistol range holes so you golf, take a long range shot, golf some more, do a couple of pistol strings, golf, shoot, golf, shoot.

The only thing is, we'd have to eliminate beer on the back nine.

Actually, you do have a point 88E30M50. There are a ton of places to shoot pistol and 100 yard or less rifle, but there really aren't many ranges where you can go to 300 yards or more for long range rifle. I feel short ranges are a waste of powder for cartridges like the .30-06. Like driving a sports car at 20mph.

Indoor ranges are very expensive to build (thanks in part to govt regulations) and a risky investment if shooting loses popularity. Outdoor ranges are also expensive to build. Since there are state owned ranges, club ranges, etc. that are not always full, maybe we have enough ranges now. Someone who shoots more than I do can probably answer that better than I can. When most of the ranges we have now are full most of the time, more will be built, I would bet.
