At the request of forum members, each week, we will feature a different state and their shooting venues. My only experience in WI is Janesville. Fantastic place to shoot. Very cozy clubhouse.
Muscoda Sportsmen Club located about 70 miles west of Madison along the Wisconsin river. We have 6 houses, 2 lighted. We shoot from April thru October. We also host the states largest team shoot. The largest of which we had 90 5 person teams and this is done in one day
I did forget to mention that we have camping spots with water and electric. The club house is heated and has A/C with a kitchen which we serve at shoots. Wednesday nights we are open for practice. The team shoot is always on the Sunday before Labor Day. Check out our web site for more information http://www.muscodasportsmanclub.webs.com/
"Lime Green Targets" The club site says lime green targets. I have to get out more often. Haven't shot those.
Visited Sauk Prairie Trap & Skeet and North Bristol Sportsmans, in the greater Madison area. Both are very nice and welcoming to visitors. Have a vacation home in the Northwoods of WI and am member at Cable Rod and Gun in Cable...another smaller but great and welcoming club.
Mods shouldn't post opinions but this is one of my favorite venues. http://www.janesvilleconservationclub.com/
Mod1, Your selection is a good one. I have shot there a number of times and have broken some good scores as well. They put on a good shoot.
Here is another good club in Southwest Wisconsin, Sauk Prairie Trap and Skeet. http://www.sauktrapandskt.com/index.html
You can see where the shot has stripped the trees just like some clubs here in Ohio, I shot there in Wisconsin when Vic Reindeer invited me in the 70s to shoot doubles with him, He and I both Chucked our guns, he with his Rem.31 and I w/my Win. Mod. 12 but with a release trigger. He commented you shuck that gun pretty well. Dr.longshot
Adding another club from Wisconsin North Bristol http://www.shootatnbsc.com/index.html North of Madison
Have not been that far west yet for Muscoda, but ventured to North Bristol about a month ago. Very impressed with the Restaurant/Clubhouse, as well as the people and grounds. A fully stocked bar and full kitchen with Fish Fry Friday nights, and Prime Rib/Ribs on Saturdays with basically a full menu. Kind of like a Country Club/Gun Club combined, although no frilly napkins. They were serving pancakes, eggs, and sausage for breakfast. Wish they had a club around here like that. Muscoda Sportsmans Club looks to be a four block walk from main street. Looks pretty nice also. May have to get out there for that Five Man Team shoot. I love that part of the state with the ridge tops and valleys of farmlands. As far as those lime green targets. They are really bright in the sunshine, just like the orange are for me when in the skyline, but against a dark background they are great. Even better with black rims! Another reason to like North Bristol.
I shoot in the hills of Eastern Pa. A lot of these 2 to 4 trap clubs you shoot into the trees. There topped pretty nice. Wish I had pics to post here. Anyone else have pics? I like to see different clubs. Wish I could shoot them all. Ed
I wish to thank Mod1 for the opportunity to post a few of my favorite Wisconsin clubs. Looking forward to clubs from other states.
The inside of that clubhouse is probably my favorite. It is not huge. I really liked the knotty pine. Very warm and friendly place.
Janesville is my home club, targets are always good, food is always good, easy to win at cards also.......come and join us for our Saturday morning Jackpots...... Tony Kennedy
Hey Tony. Looks to me like more people here that are ordinary type people and not scared to bitch about stuff that needs attention.
http://www.witrapshooters.com/archives/pics/2013StateShoot.html This is the best way to post because it does not use up a lot of bandwidth for the site. The last posted was from 2013 and not much has changed. I am in the process of getting after the webmaster to update the site.
another nice Wisconsin trap club is the Brooklyn Sportsman Club -- there only fault is April 28 -through September 2 season --Shoots leagues Sunday morning -Tuesday and Wednesday nights - with open shooting on Sunday morning only.
As long as We are bragging up Wisconsin on this post -I must also include my Favorite southern Wisconsin trap club -- Argyle Rod and Gun club -And the only one close by that is open year round -- every Wednesday night Trap - skeet - And sporting clays {Sporting clays fair weather only , and you won't see a skeeter unless it 50 degrees or better}
