Archery Range Update The Brazoria County Bowmen archery range and the 3D trail range in the woods has been in need of maintenance. Several of us have rebuilt five of the rusted out target stands wrecked by the hurricane on the front range. New targets including XBow targets have been ordered and our goal is to have them in place before the Texas Archery Season opens. Never use Broadheads or practice Broadheads on these targets. Broadheads deteriorate these targets quickly. Use only target and field point arrows at our range. Your help in clearing the 3 D shooting lanes in the woods would be greatly appreciated. Please contact Lenord Burns, Archery Director, with any questions and if you are willing to help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Notice: Shotgun Range Closed Until Further Notice The Shotgun range located on Hwy 2004 will be closed until further notice due to damage caused by Hurricane Beryl. We are assessing the damage's full extent and will begin facility repairs immediately. Please note that the duration of the repairs and range closure is currently uncertain. We understand the inconvenience this may cause and assure you that we are working diligently to minimize the impact on our members. You will receive an email as soon as possible with updates regarding the facility's status and any reopening plans. Thanks for your understanding and patience during this challenging time. We look forward to welcoming you back to our facility as soon as it is safe. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Open Carry is legal in Texas however Greenwood Gun Club does not allow open carry on premise. Open carry is not compatible with range safety and club rules. In order to continue to ensure safety on our ranges, there will be no open carry on Greenwood Gun Club property.
You are still permitted to conceal carry on GGC property if you have a CHL, but do not mix your shooting experience and concealed carry. If you draw from concealment it is breaking club rules. Act as you would in a public place. Displaying your firearm in a non-emergency situation would be considered "brandishing".
