About Marshall County Hunting and Fishing Club
The Marshall County Hunting and Fishing Club was founded in 1948 as a non-profit sportsman and conservation club. Today, our purpose and objectives remain based on our founding principles. We aspire to teach, encourage and support sportsmanship in all matters related to outdoor sports. We emphasize hunting, fishing, conservation and, above all, safety.
The club is situated on approximately 134 acres in Marshall County, West Virginia, Clay District. The club maintains twelve of these acres for various activities, with the remainder preserved as woodland habitat. Since its inception, the grounds have hosted many activities and undergone many improvements. Today, we offer pistol, archery, rifle and trap ranges. Additionally, a climate-controlled clubhouse, kitchen and restrooms are available. The pistol range includes a 60-foot covered bench area and up to a 40-yard target distance. The archery range has two permanent target boxes and two bow-hanging stations with a portable bench. Rifle shooters enjoy twelve covered concrete benches, a heated range building and up to 200-yard target distance. Trap shoots use five houses, each with its own PAT Trap set to ATA standards and voice-release callers. For an added clay-shooting challenge, the club also offers two PAT Wobble Traps.
The Marshall County Hunting and Fishing Club is a volunteer, non–profit organization that operates primarily on its members’ dues. Annual dues remain among the lowest in the area because dedicated volunteers and directors selflessly give their time to keep the facility running smoothly. We encourage the public to visit during one of our open events. Currently, we have a no-guest policy on all ranges. Members may bring their children and/or grandchildren who have not yet turned 18. Club members are responsible for their guests’ conduct and must ensure guests know and follow all safety rules.
Exceptions to this no-guest policy include club-sponsored, fee-based events such as trap shooting, benchrest shooting, groundhog shoots, 4-H turkey shoots, and sight-in days.
