I'm here in St. Pete, I know that McMan is in Tampa- where else does everyone shoot/hunt?

of course, there is MCUZI in St. Augustine, for what that's worth

Largo here.
I don't do any hunting, but I shoot at Wyoming Antelope Club/Pinellas shooting range.

Keep meaning to head up to check out the Hernando range, but it's such a long haul. I've also heard there's a 600yd range down in Sarasota, but it's a hassle to get down that far either. (Can you tell I hate driving around here?)

Great to see another WAC member here- I will be shooting my AR there for my highpower certification this Fri, at 9am.
Thursday nights at 6:30pm, I usually show up for the action pistol shoot, and Fri nights at 6:30 there is an action shotgun event. Both nights are loads of fun, but the wife usually only lets me out for one or the other.

I live in Lakeland.

We are building a new range on Highway 27, near Haines City and Davenport. It will have 100, 50, and 25 yard ranges. It's about 5 miles off of I-4, on Highway 27. Should be ready in a couple months. Details to come.

Clermont < North and West of Orlando/Disney.

Hunt = Georgia. The game down here is too small.

Shoot = where ever.

St. Pete Beach here! Friday at WAC, individual or can someone else come. (Me) Also shoot with FDCC when I can make it. Knights Trail is good and really not that far from here 45 minutes for me.

Hunt in Croom, Citrus, Green Swamp (turkeys only now for me), and most any management area can get permits for, Chiefland, and Blakely, GA. mostly

As dissipator556 said, I'm in Tampa. A new indoor pistol range has opened up here, but I haven't had a chance to check it out. Sometimes I go to a friend's house in Pasco County, but it's too far to drive. Would like to join any of you locals at WAC, if possible.

Hollywood/Fort Lauderdale area....

Shoot at American Indoor in Hollywood, plus Trail Glades and Markham Park, and on reservation land by invitation.

Not much you can legally hunt in Broward County .... lots of varmints (all those registered Democrats) but it's hard to get a tag for 'em.

Hunt wild boar on a bunch of ranches in the center of the state (north of Sebring) and on Brahma Island.

Merritt Island.

Hey Jboze - who’s the “we” that’s building the range. That’s only about an hour an 15 minutes
from me. Private club?

The "We" is the family that I'm marrying into! Gotta love that!

The details are still being worked out as to how the range will be run. I'll post more when I know more.

Hey Steyr- that first link is dead!

Good to see so many FL hunters and shooters on this site. I shoot at WAC, and sometimes at SCGAA in Orlando (inlaws).

Thurs and Fri nights at 6:30pm, WAC has an action pistol and action shotgun match. Lots of fun- let me know if interested.
