The Chatuge Gun Club Range is located in Towns County Georgia
approximately 3 miles from the summit of Brasstown Bald Mountain, the highest
point in Georgia; 4,784 feet above sea level. It is located on United States Forest
Service property and operates under a Special Use Permit since 1981. This
Special use permit with Chatuge Gun Club allows public use the second Sunday
each month from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Call a club officer Monday thru Friday from 10 a.
m. until 4:00 p.m. or contact by email, ChatugeGunClub@yahoo.com for more
information.
The range facility affords a 9-position, covered, concrete firing line with
shooting benches. Firearms may be fired at distances varying from 7 yards to 100
yards by moving the target holders. Shooters need to plan to provide their own
targets and staplers. No exploding, tracer or any other incendiary ammunition or
target or situations that might cause a fire are allowed.
The range facilities are available for use by Chatuge Gun Club members during
any daylight hours and is accessible by a key issued upon joining the club at a
regularly scheduled monthly meeting; paying the dues as described in the “Dues
Policies” link on this website; and signing an agreement with the club to
understand and obey ALL range rules as set forth by the Chatuge Gun Club.
Membership may be obtained by attending a regular monthly meeting held on the
third Tuesday of each month at the Senior Center in Hiawassee Georgia at 7 P.M.
The club presents “friendly” competition in various shooting sports almost on
a weekly basis and these competitions are open to anyone wishing to participate
as long as basic range safety rules are followed. Reference the calendar link on
this website for match dates and times. These matches vary and attempt to
provide a forum of entertainment to satisfy almost all types of firearms from muzzle
loading to semi-auto loaders. If you are not familiar with some of the matches
listed, please click on the “Matches” navigation bar for details. Most events are
offered at no cost to the shooter either member or non-member however, in some
cases a small fee is charged to cover the cost of consumables such as targets at
trap matches etc.
The Chatuge Gun Club has over 25 Certified NRA Instructors within its
membership. These dedicated Trainers can afford ongoing opportunities for
novice as well as experienced shooters to further their knowledge and skills within
the various shooting disciplines. Our Range Officer as well as any of the Club
Officers can guide you to the particular training you desire.
We also have an Airgun Program during the cooler winter months. We
present “clinics” as well as scored matches for both 10 meter air rifle and air pistol
competition. Click on the “Airgun Program” navigation bar for more details.
Except for days when organized matches are conducted, there is no Range Officer
present. Members must maintain safe range procedures by following range rules
as posted.
