Shoot Smart Range is a well run range in the north FW area. The place is kept clean and run efficiently. I know a business has every right to operate any way it chooses. This one event just hit me on a bad day. Here are there hours, specifically in reference to "Happy Hour", a reduced rate to encourage usage of the range in low usage hours ( I would speculate ).
"Shoot Smart is open 365 days a year.
Happy Hour: Monday - Thursday (2 PM - 4 PM) $7.50/person. Does not apply to private suites.
I show up this Wednesday, wait till 2 PM and step to the counter. I handed them my card and requested a "Happy Hour" lane. The very nice lady smiled and said, " Happy Hour rates are suspended for the Holidays. Would you like a private or public lane?" I asked if the suspension was communicated and she did not know. I smiled and chose the lane leading back to the front door which in turn lead me to another range.
I am really getting old and stubborn. I just felt they had taken advantage of a Thanksgiving Holiday to squeeze another $6 out of the customer. I spent my six bucks going back to a range a little less inventive. Shoot Smart is very professional and I wish them the best. But, they are not getting my $6.
