Robert Cox Marietta, GA Visitor 2-5 Visits Reviewed 10/20/2011 | Richard and his sons run a very nice business for the sporting clay enthusiast. I have shot with them several times and I always feel welcomed back as an old friend. The facilities are clean and safe and the range is well marked. The stands are changed periodically to challenge the shooters. I don't feel that the stands are too difficult for the average shooter. The price for a round of clays is also reasonable and the carts are new and well kept. Richard also offers 5 stand, gun rentals and many more services. I can't say enough good stuff about this organization. Go out and give it a try. |
STUART FOULIS ROSWELL Visitor Once Reviewed 10/20/2011 | Took my boy 11 on the weekend and we had a great time. The facility is first class and the staff is very welcoming and friendly they are happy to explain anything you are not familiar with. We have some experience shooting skeet and trap, but the sporting clay (short course) was new to us. It was the kind of afternoon I wouldn't trade for anything. For around $100 for 100 shots (including a golf cart) we could have walked the course but for 12 bucks I got a cart and looked at all the courses Archery and white course (we did the blue course) we had an absolute blast. We will definitely go back. I drove from Roswell about 45 min and it was well worth the drive |
Michael Turnmyre Hickory NC Visitor Once Reviewed 08/23/2011 | I shot a round at Etowah Valley for the first time this past weekend (8/19/11) and really enjoyed everything about it. Friendly staff, nice equipment and layout of the course and 4 seater gas golf carts. Would defiantly recommend checking it out if you're in the North Georgia/Lake Lanier area! |
Paul Smith Stockbridge, Georgia Visitor Once Reviewed 01/31/2011 | This is a very nice facility. I and a friend were in town for a mens conference in Woodstock, Ga. and was looking for somewhere to bust some clays. We shot the blue sporting clays course and had a blast! Great looks and speeds on all the targets. Good challenge with all the rolling hills and of course the truck was a lot of fun. Staff was very friendly and helpful as it was my friends first time at sporting clays. Cost is reasonable and the carts were nice also. Will recommend this club highly!

Carl Porter Suwanee, GA Visitor More than 10 visits Reviewed 01/03/2011 | I moved to Sueanee,Ga. this summer and shot at a couple of places and then found Etowah Valley. I shot the course once and became a member. The staff is a great group of professionals, who are always pleasant and eager to answer any questions. They went out of their way to introduce me to other shooters. The courses are well maintained and challenging. The prices for shooting, ammo, and instructions are very reasonable. The Beretta clothing line is great and Richard even discounts it. It is difficult enough to relocate to a new area, so finding a great shooting place like this is very comforting. Give the place a try,you will not be disappointed. |

C Rogers Roswell, GA Member 6-10 Visits Reviewed 10/25/2010 | Friendly people, decent target presentations with enough variation to challenge yet not intimidate. Nice facility in general. Very reasonable price to the public, very interested in youth and female shooters.
Some traps seem a bit worn in that presentations change from target to target but then you need to shoot where they are anyway so just keep a hard focus on the bird and bust em up! |
Stephen Hurst Cumming, Ga Visitor More than 10 visits Reviewed 03/17/2010 | I love this place. I had been shooting trap for a while, and then was introduced to Etowah Valley. Richard, Dave, Demo's and the guy's are always helpful and down to earth. The white and blue course through the woods are challenging, yet peaceful. It's a good place to blow off the weeks stress. Five stand can be very challenging. Hunted with Demos and Maxi for the first time. Now I'm hooked. Let's keep this place around and thriving. I look forward to going every chance that I get. |
Robert Donaldson Cumming, Georgia Visitor Once Reviewed 01/31/2010 | My wife and I just took the introductory course. The instructor is excellent and the class size was limited to eight and taught at a 5 stand. My wife had a great time and wants to return to shoot and we will. |
Grant Marettia Georgia Visitor Once Reviewed 12/22/2009 | I went and I loved it. You can rent golf carts. |
Harold Dyer Acworth, Georgia Visitor 6-10 Visits Reviewed 08/06/2009 | Very pleasantly surprised with the courses. No where else have I been able to shoot from the back of a Chevy truck. The five stand was awesome. The courses are challenging and unique. Every trip has been a pleasure. The staff are topnotch. I highly recommend this place to anyone including youngsters. |
Joe Hoerl Roswell, GA Visitor Once Reviewed 01/09/2009 | Great Sporting Clay Fun! I visited a few months back and plan to visit again as soon as possible. This is an excellent course that lets you walk through the woods at your own pace or rent a cart. I felt at home on the first visit as the owner (Richard) cooked lunch for us. If you want to get out of Atlanta and shoot some sporting clays this is the perfect place. |
Michael Noel Ormond Beach, FL Visitor 2-5 Visits Reviewed 09/09/2008 | Was in Atlanta for a long week-end. Found Etowah Valley on-line and gave it a try, and was very happy. My brother-in-law, who has never shot sporting clays before went with me, and i think we have another shooter to the sporting clays world. Wife was attending a meeting in Atlanta, so told her about how nice the club & friendly the personal there was, so she skipped out on Saturday afternoon and went back a second time with me. Shot the white course twice once on Friday & then on Saturday, with 3 inexperienced shooters, who had a ton of fun. I did shoot the 5 stand while there, very nice presentations. I recommend this great place for anyone in this area. Will return whenever in the area....Thanks to everyone there for a great job....keep up the good work........ |
Jon Black Alpharetta, GA Visitor Once Reviewed 09/08/2008 | I had a wonderful time at the course today. I plan to go back next week. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in sporting clays! |
Robert Cumming, GA Visitor More than 10 visits Reviewed 07/12/2008 | This is a great place to shoot. I go there often and have a great time. Just wanted to let people know that have been there before that the course changes so if you want to shoot something different go back. Richard and the guys are always friendly and helpful. Also if you enjoy shooting there let Dawson county know it because they want to close him down. |
Steve Rosenberg Johns Creek, GA Visitor Once Reviewed 04/13/2008 | Just returned from taking my kids (16-year-old boy, 12-year-old girl), and we had a great time. The facility is first class and the staff is very welcoming. We have some experience shooting skeet and trap, but the sporting clay (short course) was new to us. It was the kind of afternoon I wouldn't trade for anything. For around $50 (including a golf cart) we had an absolute blast for the price of a trip to the movies. We will definitely go back. |
Peter Cumming, Ga Visitor 2-5 Visits Reviewed 02/06/2008 | Went here for my first clay shooting. Did the long course a couple of times (15 stations) and most recently the 5-stand. Both are enjoyable. Very friendly atmosphere and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Reasonably priced. |
eric t klos ft myers florida Visitor Once Reviewed 01/06/2008 | If you're in the Atlanta area you need to stop by Etowah Valley. Very friendly. |
Stephen W Kendall Alpharetta, GA Visitor 6-10 Visits Reviewed 07/22/2007 | Have now shot the five stand, short sporting clays course and the long course.
The courses are quite a challenge at most stations. The Five Stand is a challenge as well and perhaps my favorite. Most all stations on both sporting clays courses are electronic and are running well with few problems, hang ups etc..
Golf carts are provided on the long course for a nominal fee, shotgun shells are sold at the club house at a bargain price of $5.00 a Box for 25 12 GA. Sundays the five stand is only $5.00 a round.
Love the casual atmosphere of Al and Dave the managers. |
Stephen Kendall Alpharetta GA Visitor Once Reviewed 07/02/2007 | Shot the Sporting Clays course two weeks ago and enjoyed it so much am going back again today, this time to try out the new five stand.
Very reasonably priced and close proximity to N Atlanta a definite plus. |
Richard Becker Dawsonville Owner
Reviewed 10/03/2006 | Etowah Valley Sp[orting Clays Park has been open for a little over one year and is under siege from our landlord Dawson County.
The matter is before the court and hope to have a positive result, but it is hard to fight city hall. All the best- Richard Becker
