A Few Words from Our First-Time Shooters

To celebrate our first wedding anniversary we decided to go to the range. This was practically our first time shooting/handling a gun and Mike made our experience great! He helped us check in and pick the guns to rent and provided safety and reloading demo. He is kind, and very knowledgeable and patient when we were picking his brain with questions. We were able to rent the guns they had, buy the ammo, and get different targets! Definitely will be back!

This was my wife’s and myself s first time shooting a gun. The staff did a wonderful job of walking us through the safety features as well as instructing is on the process and procedures of shooting. Overall this was a excellent experience and would highly recommend Buck and Doe’s. We would go back there for sure

Came here with my girlfriend in Nov. 2024. It was a great experience, easy, reasonably priced and beginner friendly. I have a handful of past range trips, but it was my girlfriend’s first time shooting. Kali showed us around, walked us through the basics and went above and beyond throughout our time at Buck & Does. Appreciate you Kali, thank you for the kindness you showed us.

Amazing place. We were first time shooters from Canada and Mike was a amazing instructor. He gave us a run through and was very patient. Definitely recommended this place.

This was my first time at Buck and Does even though I pass by it quite frequently. I was impressed by their Facebook page so thought I’d check it out. It was even better than expected. A sweet gal Helene greeted me as I entered and asked what I needed. She helped me find everything (magazines and ammo) I was looking for and recommended some others I was still thinking about. Great prices too!! I will be back to shoot on the range and most likely purchase a membership. Call me impressed!!
