The Binghamton Gun Club on Quilty Hill Road in Kirkwood is a go-to spot for people who love shotgun sports. They're all about shotguns there, no rifles or pistols allowed. The club is all about having fun with shotgun sports and making sure everyone stays safe and has a great time.

One great thing about them is that they have an international bunker trap range, which is rare in these parts. It's a great spot for anyone who want to train in Olympic-style trap shooting. They are one of the few places around here where aspiring Olympians can practice and have some fun.

Adding to the fun, they have a bunch of cool options like American trap, skeet, 5-stand, and a big 17-station sporting clays course. If you're up for it, they're open to visitors on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. They're always happy to welcome anyone who wants to try the exciting world of shotgun sports.
