Are there any gun clubs in the Newton area? Looks like Wayland is the closest but its still a good 15mi away.
I belong to Westwood Gun Club. It's a very nice club, about 14 miles from where I live in Newton. Longest rifle range is 100 yards, although from time to time they have set up a 200 yard range.

Wayland isn't a very good club, not sure how Woburn is, heard it is rather Pricey, have a friend who also lives 5 min from Wayland's and goes to Harvard... Loves it there.
Woburn is $240 for your first year ($100 initiation and $140 for the first year), however annual renewal is $140 - $70 if you do work hours during the course of the year. $70 a year for a club that offers quite a bit seems pretty fair to me. Work hours are easy! Help with an event or the clean up day and you're good to go!
That is cheap... I guess my statement was based off of the first year, I really don't know much about the club, only know someone who is a member, so I guess the first fee is all that stuck in my head.
I did a google earth search and westwood didn't even show up; good thing I'm asking here. Seems intriguing, I'll look into it more. What is wrong with Wayland? Are there any tiny little clubs in Newton or very close by that are just not well known?
If you find anything closer than Westwood, please tell me!
