Houston Area Plinking Range

[Marksman]

I am soooooo tired of shooting at targets on stands at gun ranges. At some ranges you can't rapid fire. I understand the necessity for safety at the ranges and I don't have a problem with that. There are enough people that don't respect guns so I definitely understand and appreciate the rules for safety at ranges. This type of shooting is good for zeroing in sights, trying out new firearms, general practice, etc., but I don't always need that.

My problem is, I don't have any land where I can just go shoot cans, water jugs, etc (and cleaning up afterwards). I would like to be able to rapid fire my .22's or 9mm's and have fun (safely and responsibly) other than just being at a stand and shooting targets.

Is there a range or other landowner in the Houston area or nearby that allows this? I'd even pay a membership fee for the privilege.

Hopefully I can have my own land someday, but in the meantime, I'm stuck at the ranges methodically shooting targets.

Good forum!

My daughter and I did an IDPA event there. I didn't realize they were open for memberships. I just checked their website and it doesn't mention anything about memberships.

Thanks for the info. I'll contact Phil.

I'm resurrecting this thread because I'm looking for a similar place. I want to show my wife the amount of damage a firearm can do and shooting holes in paper won't do it. If anyone knows a good place (preferably in North Houston) I'd appreciate the info.

@Marksman - I'm curious about what you found out about Impact Zone.

Y'all need to look for gun/shooting clubs, not ranges. YMMV

Any recommendations?

Actually I hear (never been) that Thunder Range in Conroe has some private areas. Check 'em out.

I shoot at Thunder but have never been in the private area. I might ask them about it next time I go (hopefully today if the weather will clear up).

It doesn't appear that Thunder will just let you shoot anything on their club range however after looking into it, my wife and I decided join next time we go out. $50/year for both of us ($35 for individuals) is a pretty good deal when you consider having a separate range from the public plus free training classes and group ammo buys.
