Mudgee Sporting Clays shoots on Range 4, the shotgun range of the Windamere Regional Shooting Complex on the Castlereagh Highway at Cudgegong, south of Mudgee. The range is shared with the local SSAA branch's shotgun club, which shoots 5-Stand there. The club has over a hundred members and is affiliated with Sporting Clays NSW and Sporting Clays Australia.
It began in 1975 as the Mudgee branch of Field and Game, after three local clay target shooters tried a simulated field shoot. Today it shoots sporting clays and FITASC Sporting, and the range has hosted State Selections, State Championships and national events.
Members shoot every second and fourth Sunday, starting at 9am. Those days are a mix of 100-target competitions, handicaps and practice rounds.
The club caters for first-timers and can help with a firearms licence application. It also hosts corporate days, bucks and hens groups and birthday parties. Camping is permitted and there are toilets at the ground. Use the enquiry button on this page or the club's website.
