SEASON PASS - 2024

 

10/1/24 - New Policy for 2025 Season Passes - We currently have over 200 names on the waiting list, but we only brought in about a dozen new pass holders for 2024.  Because of the large number of individuals/families looking to purchase a pass, the expected limited number of available slots for new pass holders, and our overwhelming success in the practical shooting sports, we are revising our waiting list policy for 2025 Season Passes:  Starting for 2025 Season Passes, new pass holders must have attended at least 4 matches in 2024 to be considered for 2025 Season Pass with individuals that attended more than 4 matches being prioritized (the more matches somebody attends, the more likely they will receive a pass).  This policy does not apply to current, renewing pass holders. 

11/15/23 - After a fabulous response from our current Season Pass holders, the few remaining open slots sold quickly, we are officially sold out of Season Passes for 2024. Thank you everyone for the support!

If you would like to be added to our wait list, please submit a CONTACT form and provide your name, email and phone number.

Season Pass - FAQ’s

What is the purpose of having a Season Pass? – The Season Pass is for individuals and families that would like access to our outdoor shooting bays for practicing their shooting skills. 

When can I use the range if I have a Season Pass? – As a Season Pass holder, you can use the range anytime a bay is available.  We do host several competitive matches each month and instructors use the range for their classes from time to time; these types of events do limit access.  We have a CALENDAR posted on our website so that Season Pass holders can plan around these events.  Plus, most of the instructors use only 1 bay for their classes, so there are still 3 bays available for practice.

Do I need to make a reservation to use a bay? – No, you do not.  Use of the range is on a “first-come, first-served basis” for Season Pass holders.  We do ask everyone to please be considerate of others and not to monopolize the range.  We limit the number of Season Passes that we sell in an effort to ensure availability for all Season Pass holders.

How early or late can I shoot? – So that we are good neighbors, we don’t allow any shooting before 8:00am or after dusk or 8:00pm (whichever is earlier).

Do I need to bring my own targets? – You are certainly welcome to bring your own targets, but we have plenty! We have dozens of target stands that can be used for paper/cardboard target or hang static steel targets (we offer several different sizes and shapes of static steel). We also have a lot of knock-down steel that can be used for pistol and birdshot.

Can I use a bay if it has walls or a stage built on it? – Absolutely! This is the very foundation for DSS. We want competitive shooters to be able to practice and enjoy the practical shooting sports. The best way to do that is to take advantage of the structures and props that we leave out for everyone to use.

Can I bring a guest? – Yes.  Individual Season Pass holders may bring one guest with them when they use the range (Family Season Pass holder may bring 2 guests).  Guests will be allowed to visit the range up to 3 times per year before being required to purchase a Season Pass for themselves.  There will be some other rules regarding guests, but we will go over those rules when signing up for your pass.

Why do I need a certain “classification” in a shooting sport to purchase a Season Pass? – Season Pass holders will be using the range in an “unsupervised” manner.  Thus, by obtaining a certain “classification” in a shooting sport, attending a DSS or approved instructor training class, or attending our safety class, you will have demonstrated an understanding of safe firearm operation. 

What “classification” do I need to have to purchase a Season Pass? – You will need to have one of the following: a “C” classification in any division of USPSA, “Marksman” classification with IDPA or 3 Gun Nation, attend a Level 1 class with Validus Protective Services or Dynamic Shooting Sports, LLC, be a certified NRA instructor, or have a current Ohio CCW that expires after December 31, 2024  If you don’t have any of these, you would be required to attend a safety class sponsored by Dynamic Shooting Sports, LLC. 

I am a certified firearms instructor.  If I purchase a Season Pass, can I bring my students as a guest to the range? – No.  If you would like to conduct a class or teach at DSS, please complete a CONTACT form and include your phone number.  We will get back to you ASAP.
