At Jacksonville Clay Target Sports, we pride ourselves on being more than just a premier shooting facility—we’re a nonprofit organization dedicated to reinvesting in our members, guests, and the shooting sports community. This commitment shapes everything we do, from upgrades to our courses to the quality of experiences we offer.
What makes JCTS unique is that every dollar of positive cash flow goes right back into improving our facilities. Unlike for-profit organizations, we don’t have stockholders or individuals pocketing profits. Instead, we use these funds to enhance your shooting experience. The better we do, the more we can give back to you!
Take, for example, the exciting changes we made to the South Course earlier this year. In January 2024, we invested in a second set of machines, creating two pairs with varying levels of difficulty. Now, whether you’re a beginner or an expert, the South Course offers something tailored just for you. Machines A & B are designed to match the challenge level of the M.C. Bass Electrical Course, ensuring a comfortable transition for those trying the South Course for the first time. Meanwhile, Machines C & D provide a greater challenge, perfect for shooters looking to take their skills to the next level.
These investments are part of a larger strategy to reshape how shooters view the South Course. Once known for its steep difficulty, it gained a reputation that deterred many shooters. However, we’ve adjusted the course’s difficulty to be more inclusive while still offering an engaging experience for advanced shooters. We want our members and guests to feel confident exploring all that JCTS has to offer—and avoid the long wait times often experienced on the M.C. Bass Electrical Course during peak hours.
Your support helps make these improvements possible, and the ripple effects benefit everyone who visits JCTS. When you come out to shoot, attend an event, or bring a guest, you’re directly contributing to our ability to make upgrades, introduce new programs, and enhance the overall experience for all shooters. It’s a cycle of reinvestment that elevates our entire community.
So next time you step onto the course, take pride in knowing you’re part of something bigger. Whether you’re shooting with friends, trying out new machines, or simply enjoying the outdoors, your presence makes a difference. Together, we’re building a facility that reflects our shared passion for the sport and our commitment to continuous improvement.
Thank you for being part of the JCTS family. Let’s keep working together to make JCTS the best it can be for everyone!
