What Classes and Disciplines Does Ukiah Rifle and Pistol Club Offer?
Updated
The Ukiah Rifle and Pistol Club (URPC) lists training courses in Hunter Education, CCW classes, and general firearm and archery classes, alongside separate discipline pages and a contacts section. These are the course categories named on the club's website; the site does not publish schedules, prices, or registration steps on the pages reviewed, so anyone interested should confirm details through the club's contact channels before planning to attend.
Training Courses Listed on the Site
The site's navigation groups its instruction under "Training Courses," with three named entries:
- Hunter Education — a course page listed under the training menu.
- CCW Classes — listed as its own course category.
- Classes (Firearm & Archery) — a combined category covering firearm and archery instruction.
The site does not state prerequisites, class length, cost, or how often each course runs. Because URPC describes itself as a members-only range, prospective students should ask whether a given course requires membership or is open to the public before signing up.
Disciplines and Contacts
Beyond formal courses, the site has a "Disciplines & Courses" section and a "URPC Disciplines" page with an "About & Contacts" area. This is where the club organizes its shooting disciplines and the people to contact about them. The site does not enumerate every discipline in the text reviewed, so the disciplines page and the contacts listed there are the practical starting points for questions about a specific activity.
Ranges That Support These Activities
The courses sit alongside a set of dedicated ranges, which helps explain what each class or discipline involves:
| Range | Likely use |
|---|---|
| Main Range | General rifle and pistol shooting |
| Trap Range | Shotgun/trap shooting |
| Archery Range | Archery practice and instruction |
| Helldorado Range | Club-designated range (purpose not detailed on the home page) |
| Back Range | Additional club range |
The club describes the facility as a members-only shooting range on 100 acres of oak-covered foothills in the Ukiah Valley, Mendocino County, with multiple ranges "all focused on safety."
Hours and a Practical Check Before You Go
- Monday–Saturday: 8 a.m. to a half hour before sunset.
- Sunday: 9 a.m. to a half hour before sunset.
The club explicitly reminds members to check the calendar before leaving for the range, because a group may be occupying it, and to watch email for membership updates. The same advice applies to anyone planning to attend a class: confirm on the calendar and with the listed contacts that the session or range is available.
What to Confirm Before Registering
The website reviewed does not provide course dates, fees, instructor names, or enrollment instructions. To get a definite answer, use the club's contact page or the contacts under the Disciplines section and ask specifically about the Hunter Education, CCW, or firearm/archery class you want, including whether membership is required and what equipment to bring.
