Friend moved to Clarksville last year.
Said he can't find a range to shoot at for free down there.
Is there a place?????
We have only one place to shoot here.
Besides the bases.
It's run by the city and is a park, so it's free.

most shooting ranges in Tennessee are private/club. You can find someone that has land outside of town, but that takes time. Best thing to do is join a range. Midshouthshootersupply.com is in Clarksville +1 good people!!!!

If he was round here I'd offer him my range.

Have him google Jones Keeny gun range. It’s in Caldwell co Ky. Which is about 1- 1 1/4 hrs from Clarksville Tn.

Plus one on Midsouthshooterssupply! Cheatham WMA has a range which is probably within an hour of him and far as I know is free. TWRA website will have info.
I shoot clay targets and teach quite a bit at Cross Creek Clays, just across the river in Palmyra. A world class facility if he wants to shoot Sporting Clays with a shotgun.
Good Luck to him,
Rick

If he hasn't already found it tell him about Johnny's big burger on College street. One of the best greasy cheeseburgers I've had in a looooong time. Tell him to be extra hungry if he orders the double!:p

I'd think someone that lives there close would invite him to the farm.

Unfortunately Bazoo they don’t let most people shoot on their farms. Don’t get access to a farm unless you pay a nice premium on a hunt lease.

That's sad. I have a friend that comes to use my range. He can come and go whenever he likes. All I ask is he text me and let me know he's here so if I come home and hear shooting I don't have to investivate. I'm thankful for a place to shoot any time I want.

Omega they did. But I have not been there since they moved the road and hear redid it. Plus I believe is a pay range.

I don't know how I forgot to mention in my previous post Montgomery County Shooting Complex. It is not free but if I recall one can either purchase an annual membership or pay a reasonable daily fee. It is a nice facility offering handgun and rifle up to 400 yards or so? Small pro-shop with ammo, targets, hearing protection, snacks, and some things I've forgotten I'm sure. A few friends of mine donated the real estate about 10 years ago and it is run by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Federation. It is within about a half hour drive from most anywhere he could live in Clarksville.
Hope this helps,
Rick

I used to live in Knoxville. According to the TWRA, their ranges are available for a fee by the hour, or with an annual permit, or they are free with possession of a TN hunting license.
