    A local sporting clays club has raised their prices to the following:

    Targets 65 cents
    Carts $40.00
    Gun rental $40.00
    ammo-$16.00/box $17.00 for premium ammo

    Makes trap shooting look like a bargain

    That’s a gut punch. 65¢ per target is straight-up steep you’re looking at $65–70 just for a casual 100 bird round, plus $40 for a cart and another $30–40 if you need gun ammo. That’s easily $150 for one guy to go punch some clays.

    Trap skeet at the usual $6–8 per round 25 birds plus cheap ammo suddenly feels like the budget friendly move. No wonder folks are calling trap the new bargain!

    If it’s your local spot and you love the course, maybe worth it once in a while, but at those prices it’s turning into a special occasion thing rather than a regular shoot.

    in my opinion they have ruined the sport. Pricing is stupid.

    its basic capitalism.
    grab while the grabbing is good.
