Ottawa, IL (Day 3): Buffalo Range Shooting Park

This would be my second time down to Buffalo Range Shooting Park. I really enjoy this park for several reasons.

1. The range’s are outdoors
2. There are 5 separate ranges, Rifle (50,75,100 yards), pistol (25), trap and skeet, clay range, and a plinking pit
3. The people are friendly
4. The facilities are clean and extremely safe
5. Soda and water are only $1.00!

Seriously, though…this is a great place to spend a day shooting - or even a half day.
There is no FOID card required, however, you need a FOID card to get your guns to the park!
You are not required to have one to shoot.

The one aspect I tolerate - it’s $25/person to get in for the day. So, plan to make it an all day outing.

She hadn’t done so well with a 20 gage last winter in Arizona. She has almost always done better than me in the .22 target shooting.dscf5211.jpg
