Come out to hone your clay target shooting skills at the DNR’s Ortonville, Pontiac Lake, Rose Lake and Sharonville shooting ranges! The clay target throwers will be available on Sundays beginning May 3 through the month of August. The range staff will load the throwers for your pulling. The Dansville range will NOT have clay target throwers available.
The Ortonville and Pontiac Lake range hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Rose Lake, Sharonville and Dansville range hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The last shot is fired at 4:45 p.m. The ranges are open Thursday through Monday, closed Tuesday and Wednesday, except for Dansville, which is open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
The weather is supposed to be in the high 60s to low 70s this weekend, so it’s the perfect time to shoot and enjoy the sunshine at the ranges.
The DNR shooting ranges, except Dansville, will be open on Monday, May 25, for the Memorial Day holiday.
The 2015 hunting and fishing licenses are available online 24-hours a day, or make a campground reservation at Michigan’s 102 state parks and recreation areas at www.midnrreservations.com. Campground reservations can be made up to six months in advance.
