On the driving range of one of the golf course I shoot we play games with the golf balls, try to keep them moving, first person shoots then the next asap when it lands, good fun, but the balls don't last long...but that's not Air rifles!!! I think its to do with it being open to the public, Once you add FAC guns then the police and other authorities become involved, Plus it will effect the insurance, I believe basically its a financial decision as the cost of doing it would not be offset by the income it generates in the way it currently operates. That is unless you plan to go down that route from the start by becoming a private club with a large enough membership and high enough annual fees to make it pay. Quote Link to post
