Straight ShootersThe
 
The Villages Straight Shooters host informal rimfire rifle competitions. However, they are offhand 25 yards competitions weekly over ten week terms. We also have pistol competitions and NRA Marksmanship rating shoots.

Thanks for all the replies. It looks like Eustis is going to be my best bet. I won’t be traveling to Jacksonville or Daytona. I have have 3 clubs around me now that I can get to in 30 minutes. I’ll miss that. Maybe I’ll take up golf “Not”.

If you're willing to switch to air guns there are matches 5 days per week spread out over 3 ranges within The Villages. There are 6 classes based on ability ranging from "just starting" to "never missing" and everything in between. The Villages Air Gun Club - Home

Joe,
Actually I’ve been giving airguns some thought. I will definitely check it out.

You could shoot the little white ball.

Where do you shoot it. I see TV has 3 Airgun ranges, I may check that out.

Off my back porch into the lake at the Tennessee house. Floating target holders. Adds dynamic movement to the exercise.

Good luck finding that shooter. When I first arrived at the Villages I was looking for someone that shot F T/R class and got zero replies.
You might want to contact the Ares Traing Facility in Leesburg, Fl.

The season starts Wednesday July 6 at Sugar Cane and there are shoots at Rio Grande Thursdays/Fridays and Rohan Mondays/Tuesdays. Matches start promptly at 9am and usually tapers off until conclusion at 11am. If it fits your schedule, next time you are in town it might be worth swinging by and just checking it out, there are plenty of people to chat with. A lot of the guys shoot "real" guns too although a fair number are like me and only shoot air.

Airgun ammo...the good stuff...costs $14 for 500!

I shot RFBR with a group of guys at Ocala Sportsmans Club but they were not interested in competitive shooting. I since gave it up but have a nice RF target rifle for sale. PM me if interested.
