Winter 2026 Update from Island Creek Sporting Clays

As many of you know Bob has been dealing with cancer since 2021, although we haven’t shared much about it publicly. Recently, the physical toll on him has been getting worse, leaving him increasingly tired. To protect his health and conserve his energy, we have decided to close Island Creek Sporting Clays for the winter. Our final day of operation will be November 15. We plan to reopen in the spring and will keep everyone updated as we get closer. We are incredibly grateful for the support, friendship and loyalty you have shown Bob and Island Creek over the years. Please come out and see us before we close for the season. Even while the range is closed, Bob would love to see his friends. You are always welcome to visit—just please call before stopping by to make sure someone is home, as we have frequent doctor’s appointments and schedules can change. Thank you all for your understanding and continued support.
