Hi ladies.
I will be talking about two ranges today that I've had the chance to get familiar with. I've become familiar with The Bullet Hole a bit more than Centerfire because CSS has just recently opened.
The Bullet Hole
The company offers a showroom for their firearms along with a shooting range. The upper level provides 22 individual stalls each equipped with a bench to place and load your firearm and a hand pulley system for moving your target. In addition, there is a bullet proof observation area for people to safely watch range shooters.
Since moving to the Overland Park area, I have been there every Wednesday (which happens to be Ladies Night) to shoot off a few rounds. I paid $20.00 for a year-long membership and women shoot for free on Ladies Night. Last Wednesday, I spent a whopping 55 cents for targets and let over 60 rounds loose. Even if you're just visiting, it's great to be able to shoot there. They rent out eye and ear protection and a guest pass is pretty inexpensive. The Bullet Hole has been open for many years so it's not the fanciest place around...but that's not a big deal for me when all I want to do is shoot.
Centerfire Shooting Sports
I had the pleasure of going to their first Ladies Night a couple evenings ago. Since it is a new business and everyone wanted to be there, I wasn't able to shoot...but that didn't stop me from wandering around and watching other women shoot. What really impressed me was the helpfulness of the staff. There were many obvious first-time shooters there, but the staff didn't blink an eye. There were many times that I would see the staff go into the range with the women to show them how to correctly shoot and would watch them to ensure they were doing it correctly. I like when a business takes that time to help their customers.
Ladies Night was in honor of the new 007 movie coming out so they all sported tuxedos and served virgin martinis throughout the night. It was a nice change to have an upscale experience at a gun range. Since they have just opened and I wasn't able to personally try out the range, I will update you ladies with a full spread about them.
Also, thank you very much for all of the wonderful e-mails with your feedback. If you have something in particular you want to know more about regarding firearms, shoot me an e-mail at ElegantlyArmed@gmail.com.
