Just got an email that Hunter's run in Port Allen is "suspending operations" as of 12/26/16, seems to be issues with getting lease renewed. Hope they come to an agreement and everything works out

anybody hear anything?

quote:


We at Hunters Run Gun Club regret to inform our members that Monday, December 26, 2016 will be our final day of operation while we temporarily suspend operations at our current location. The lease for the public land on which Hunters Run operates has expired. If Sheriff Mike Cazes puts the land out for public bid, we hope to win that bid! All memberships will be temporarily suspended until Hunters Run resumes operations.

-PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR DAILY UPDATES AND MORE INFORMATION

I have been there a handful of times, do they have a good number of shooters on a given day?

It was just to small to hold any significant size NSCA shoots.

This might turn out to be interesting . . .

The Hunter's Run Gun Club and the Great International Land Company recently filed suit against its former manager in the U.S. District Court Middle District of Louisiana, alleging that Baker's unfair trade practices and other wrongful actions led to irreparable injury, loss and damage to the gun club.

The summer heat and rain has brought us long grass and good news! Hunter’s Run Gun Club is approaching confirmation of its new location. We are currently working with the land owner and crafting our agreement. This is on the same piece of property we discussed in our most recent update. It is very convenient from both Gonzales and the Baton Rouge metro. No need to cross the bridge to West Baton Rouge. As luck may have it, this property will likely be available in a primary and secondary acquisition. The primary property will be the landing spot for all members. It is a wonderful property with tons of character and natural beauty. It is large enough to hold a spacious clubhouse for our members and guests. It will hold 3 Trap/Skeet fields and 8-10 sporting clays stations. It will also hold the 600 yard rifle range as well as several 100 yard multi-purpose ranges that can be used for handgun, 3 gun, and a multitude of other training classes. In addition to these fields, the property has a state of the art training & classroom facility plus room for a FULL pro-shop to handle everything from basic shotgun club needs to full rifle cartridge reloading. This unique property has a bonus feature. A massive piece of nearby property that we are working on securing. This property is large enough to house an additional 20 sporting clays stations as well as 3 additional trap/skeet fields. The primary property is very nice, but this additional acreage will create an over-the-top experience for our members. Stay tuned as we work through the process and have more specific information to announce (hopefully very soon!)
