From Highway 8 West, turn south on South River Road at the United Rental Center; about a mile west of Rhinelander. On South River Road, continue about a mile south to the sign for Sports Club Rd and the Rifle Range sign. Follow Sports Club Road all the way to the end of the road. The Range has an orange gate at the entrance. The Rifle/Pistol Range is Members Only with-guest passes available for $10 per day, but you must be with a member. Members are allowed to use the range unless there is a sponsoring organization using the range.

The range has five separate shooting bays. The south bay is a 100/200 yard range for rifle use only. The center bay is a 50 yard range with target holders at 50 ft, 25 yards and 50 yards that can be used for rifles or handguns. The north bay is also a 50 yard range set up for handgun and law enforcement training.

The rifle range has added a 400 yard range that you can drive to change your targets. The range is located just south of Cowboy Town. We have also been plowing out to the 300 yard backstop in the winter. We have also added 4 competition and training ranges.

The cowboy town range has two shooting bays set up specifically for Cowboy Action and Wild Bunch shooting. The cowboy range is used for organized competition only. Shotguns should be patterned at the Shotgun/Archery Range at 4480 County Rd C during open hours.
