I'm looking to put together a small shoot for about a dozen people(most of whom live in or around Louisville). Any ranges (preferably outdoors) or public accessible land within an hour or so of Louisville that would be friendly to and able to accommodate a group shooting centerfire pistols, rifles, and shotguns? Knob Creek is a last resort due to a previous negative experience with one of their RSOs while I was there as part of another small group. |

Their rules say no full-auto and no targets other than paper, though. That's kind of a bummer. |

What day of the week was it? I've been going there for the past two years twice a month on Saturdays. Haven't seen any park staff. Also I talked to the one lady who's there every day practically to collect brass, and she says worst they do about steel is ask you to put it away. |
| Otter Creek Range in Brandenburg, about 2 miles off 31w (aka Dixie Dieway) just south of West point by Muldraugh. 25ydX25yd 5 bay pistol and 100yd 6 bay rifle (w/ tubes, prevents uphill fire). No patrol, you are your RSO, dawn to dusk. Please clean up after yourself, and don't go home with any extra holes. IMPORTANT: Buy your day pass here before going, signs say you're supposed to print but I just screenshot and have never had an issue the few times KFDWR has checked (yes, THOSE green suits, best to have your nuts all lined up when they come around). Cheers (clock by license, fill the info, enter date of entry, then range pass towards the bottom, buy, click print license, screenshot PDF).... https://app.fw.ky.gov/Solar/ |
