Just passing along their new hours are Thurs-Sun 9-5. They used to be open tues and weds too. I see posts every now and then of folks asking about this range.

Honey Island is hands down better but Tallow Creek is so close I use it when I just need to zero in the deer rifle.

Heard that place was a total shite show. Looked at some reviews online and corroborated what I heard.

FTR....

I live in Fox Branch Estates, just up 1085 from Tallow Creek. I hate that place with a passion but have been three times the last month simply due to it being two minutes from my house. Mr Johnny is good people. He's the only range guy I've met that I care for. He's going to make a knife for me as a Christmas gift for my FIL. The rest of them can eat a bowl of dicks as far as I'm concerned.

I see there are several of us Northshore guys here in the same proximity. We need a Northshore OBGT soon. I'd like to meet most of you guys.

I went out to Tallow Creek today since I live right next door and needed to sight in my rifle. It was a surprisingly good experience. If you can look past the shitty trailer park-like atmosphere, it gets the job done.

The range officer was very nice; I didn't catch his name though. They only charged me for 1 hr when I told them I was there an hour and a half.

I will say that Honey Island is much nicer, cheaper, and safer. If I plan on shooting a bunch of different guns and staying a while; I'll make the drive out there. However, no issues today at Tallow Creek.

They are open Wednesday-Sunday FYI.
