Phuket Shooting Range

A Shooting range is not my thing but I do not judge those who do. After our Ho Chi Minh trip wherein Joel was not able to try the shooting range offered at the Cu Chi Tunnel tour, he vowed to do it in Phuket. Just a quick Google search and we found out that there is one Phuket Shooting Range complex in Chalong situated near Kata Beach. 

The place is open from 8am until 6pm and parking space is ample. As we managed our own time, we arrived at the place at a little past 1 in the afternoon. There were a lot of tourists because there are a lot of exciting things to do such as go kart racing, a snake farm, elephant trekking, paintball and many more. We headed straight to the Shooting Range and the staff was quick to give us some ear muffs so we won't be deaf from all the background shooting. 


There is a poster on the wall detailing what type of guns and how much one would pay to fire 10 bullets from the machines. This is also detailed in their website and the staff are happy to help and explain further about it. 


After deciding what he wanted to use, Joel was asked to go to the counter and pay. The cashier then gave him his target and the 10 bullets he would use.


While he was doing so, I looked around the Shooting Range's display and found that they have  a Certificate of Excellence from Trip Advisor. 


After paying, the patrons are asked to queue in the middle of the hall and an available guide will lead them to a seat. 



The place has a lot of reminders for safety such as: not to point the guns to any person. 

Before starting, the instructor is guiding Joel on the how to's of this activity. 


He then started to use his 10 bullets and  finally posed with his target!


He would have wanted another round but it was a bit costly for our daily budget. Anyhow, he was already happy to have experienced it and I was too, for my first time in a shooting range. Thank you for reading and 'til next blog!
