Wilson Shoals WMA Shooting Range - Alto, Georgia

I've been going to Wilson Shoals for about eight years. I first started going before the recent renovations. The range was always kept neat and clean. The range officers were always friendly and helpful while still keeping the range safe and making sure that the rules were being followed. The renovations are outstanding Post-renovation this gun range has all of the amenities that one could ask for. And the range officers and employees are just as friendly, helpful and safety conscious as ever. Whether it's rifles, pistols, bow or anything else, it's always an enjoyable experience.

Recently, I had the good fortune of being able to attend Wilson Shoals WMA Shooting Range over multiple days and had an enjoyable experience on each occasion. The staff not only ran a tight ship (Safety and overall cleanliness), but they were friendly, professional and easily approachable and only too happy to assist if and when required. Highly recommended venue and staff. Looking forward to my next visit.

First time at Wilson Shoals and I WILL be going back. Spoke to Everett (Range Manager) about the recent poor reviews. He said the number one goal of the range is to have a safe environment for everyone. There are really simple rules to follow and the range was almost full when I shot. No one had a problem and the Range Managers were polite and well communicating. I was given clear instructions on how the range worked (both rifle and pistol) and watched the required safety video prior to my arrival. It’s great that there is a WMA Range to enjoy that is safe and accommodating.

Fantastic place for both new and experienced shooters! Mike Thompson, a range safety officer, went above and beyond to help me tighten my pistol groups and improve my trigger control. His guidance was clear, patient, and incredibly helpful. The staff here truly care about ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!

I grew up shooting at various indoor ranges, never really settling on one, but since discovering Wilson Shoal about a year ago, it’s become my favorite spot. Although it’s a bit further of a drive, it’s absolutely worth it.

The outdoor setting and being in nature create a unique atmosphere that indoor ranges just can’t match. The staff, especially Mike, are always helpful and offer great guidance.

Highly recommend this range for anyone looking for a great outdoor shooting experience.

My first time there the other day was great. The staff were polite. But yesterday when I went, the safety officer was very rude. I routinely checked in, the range was cold, so great. I went and it looked quite full, so I was about to walk back to my truck and wait a while, but the safety officer told me, “go find a spot put your stuff down, and grab a stapler and get your target ready like he though I didn’t know what to do. Now I know what the hell I’m doing because I’ve been to gun ranges many times before. I know what to do. Besides that, the range was very organized and clean. Just don’t hire old grumpy men that don’t give a shit about courtesy. I always respect the authority of elders, but they have to show some respect

Overall range was very well maintained and very safe. That being said - I understand safety at the range is #1, but there is a way to maintain a safe environment without being rude. Multiple employees / range safety officers were incredibly short and condescending while communicating on the range. Only one out of the four safety officers on the range was polite and created a welcoming environment where the newer shooter we had with our group felt like he was able to learn.
Overall it was a very poor experience and a good example of how not to communicate with paying customers.

Very well organized, and field capitans are there to help and keep everyone safe. Great place to shoot.
