Daviess County Gun Club

I recently dropped by the Daviess County Gun Club for a round of sporting clays and was wholly impressed with everything they have to offer.
If you’re planning on heading there yourself, make note of the location on a map. The street address listed will get you fairly close, but if you’re using GPS or Google Maps you’ll need to head further southwest on KY2830 than the address suggests. The DCGC actually has a very large sign that’s visible from the road and it’s definitely welcome given the ambiguity of the street address.
The facilities themselves are very nice. There’s a centrally located clubhouse surrounded by two trap fields, two skeet fields, one five stand field, and sporting clays. Trap and skeet both looked to have sound-​activated launchers available, but I didn’t actually use them the day I stopped by. I was there for the sporting clays range, which is certainly one of the main attractions. It turns out the DCGC actually has two sporting clays ranges: a half-​course consisting of five stations and a full course consisting of ten. I only made it through the half-​course on the day I stopped by, but I’m definitely looking forward to returning to give the full course a shot. The half-​course was well constructed and plenty challenging. The launchers were all in very good working order. I think I only had one bad launch all day. Also noteworthy: the battery-​operated launchers are all hooked up to solar panels, meaning the launchers should be mostly self-​sustaining and minimize the environmental impact by reducing the number of batteries needing to be changed. The half-​course consisted entirely of report-​pair scenarios, with 4 out of the 5 stations relying on report-​pairs from a single launcher. This takes a little of the challenge out of it, but I understand the full course has a few true-​pair scenarios.
Prices were very typical. $ 15 half-​round of sporting clays. $ 30 full-​round. $ 6 trap. There are discounts available for members of the actual DCGC. The staff I talked to were very friendly and easy to work with. I’ll definitely go back the next time I’m in the area.
