Plan to bring everything. One reviewer notes there are no steel targets or target boards, another advises bringing your own chair, targets and stand, and a third says to bring stable targets rather than rocks. Wind is the recurring theme: reviewers describe very windy conditions and suggest sandbags to hold down target stands, and one reviewer did not stay long after the wind kept their target from standing.

One reviewer suggests that first-time shooters ask someone for help, and two others raise concerns about people handling guns while someone is downrange or firing without looking, with one saying the warning light is hit or miss.
