I have family that live in the Fort Myers/Sarasota FL. area. Actually they live in North Port which is kinda in between the two.

They are having trouble finding ranges in the area. Not so much for competition. More for just target practice with the kids and stuff.

If anyone knows of anywhere hopefully close to the North Port area please pass the info along.

Thanks!!!

There's a great one I found, it's free and really nice. If you exit I-75 at Tuckers Grade and head west you enter a state or county park, a short drive in and you'll find the range.
It is not the critic who counts, nor the one who points out how the strong man stumbled, or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I aim to misbehave

Cool. I'll pass it along and see if they can find it. I don't know the area that well, but maybe they will recognize the exits...

I believe you have to go East from the Interstate. There is a box with envelopes in it and you have to put $3 for each person using the range. Still very cheap. There is a 200 yard rifle range, 100 yard rifle range, a pistol range and a shotgun area. They also have restroom facilities. There is usually someone watching the ranges to keep the idiots out. I have been checked to see if I had my flap from the envelope in the window. I think it is called Babcock-Webb. Bshooter.
