Listen up! There’s a lot happening at WGC.

There are a lot of things happening at the WGC so I wanted everyone to have a chance to be on the same page.

  • The WV State Shoot has been cancelled this year.
  • The VA State Shoot has be rescheduled to September 17-20. Program will be out soon.
  • The WGC Summer league is moving along nicely with a great turnout. Practice traps are always open to the public on Tuesdays.
  • The new 5 Stand open on Saturdays is seeing good numbers for shooters and beginning to get it’s own following of regulars. Practice traps are open to the public on Saturdays as well.
  • The June 20 Saturday Fathers Day shoot at WGC is still a go (so far), however we need everyone’s assistance in keeping up with and adhering to the latest COVID-19 guidelines (more to come before the shoot). We are also hoping to keep the 5 Stand open that day.
  • HELP! We’ve implemented a new mechanism, that any parent of Jr. shooters can work for the day and their kid shoots for free minus ATA/VTA fees. The parent must work all day and be willing to score or fill traps. Depending on the size of the shoot we would use 6-9 people. It’s on a first come first serve basis, let us know at the counter beside the registration office the morning of the shoot. This is only in affect for WGC monthly shoots! Also looking for help with registering shooters, if your willing to learn the shoot software and help in the office we may be able to work something out there as well.
  • With the VA shoot being postponed would you still be interested in a 1 or 2 day shoot July 4-5? Maybe on Saturday 100 Singles-100 Handicap (5 Stand would be open as well), Sunday 100 Singles, 100 Handicap, 50 pair doubles? Some other event line up? Camping would be available. This would also be help dependent! Let us know in the Facebook comments.

Great turnout today. Thank you to all who shot. After many requests to be open Monday we will do so. The 5 Stand and traps will be open from 10am-4pm Monday. $4/$5 member/non-members 5Stand and $3/$4 member/non-members for traps, open to the public during this time. Please let us know how we are doing and if there are other days that would work better for you! We are thinking about doing special group requests however there will be target minimums if we do. Let us know if that would interest you. Email 5Stand for 5 stand specific questions and Admin for anything gun club related. Thank you and we hope to be part of a great weekend for you.

WGC Summer League and 5 Stand updates

We had a beautiful day Saturday for our official opening of the WGC 5 Stand. Several shooters showed up and we saw a few new faces which is great to see in shooting sports. Remember we plan to be open from 10a-4p every Saturday depending on the weather. Which reminds me this Saturday weather wise hasn’t looked good until today so remember to like and follow us on our Facebook page. We will do our best to keep the page updated with important information such as cancellations. You can also email us or check our news page before you leave.

Summer League began Tuesday night and man what a turn out. We had 11 adult and 2 Jr teams. I think everything went off without too many problems and hopefully everyone that wanted to be on a team got one or signed up as a substitute. Thank you all for working with us on all the COVID-19 guidelines!

Dear Friends of the Winchester Gun Club,
Just a few short months ago, it would have been difficult to imagine our world facing a crisis of such massive proportions. Across the planet, citizens are united in a common goal: to fight off and eradicate a rapidly advancing attacker we cannot see or hear, a silent invader that threatens our health and wellbeing. 
Here at The Winchester Gun Club, we’re doing everything in our power to be a responsible corporate citizen. We wish to assure you that we are taking every precaution to both protect the health of our members, and to ensure business continuity during this unprecedented era of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
In an effort to address this evolving situation, the club leadership team is communicating often to discuss the global pandemic. We are taking several measures to preserve the health and safety of our club members, who we consider to be our most precious resource. We have decided to postpone all formal Tuesday evening and Saturday afternoon practices until further notice. However, individual members can still come down and shoot as normal but we ask you to be cognizant and take all precautions the federal and state legislatures are informing us to do.
The main clubhouse will be closed and will remain closed during this period and we will let everyone know when this changes.
We will update you as the need arises. Thank you for your patience and support during this unprecedented time in history. 
We appreciate every one of you and wish you good health going forward.
