What is Practical Shooting?

Practical Shooting attempts to measure the ability to shoot rapidly and accurately with a full power handgun, rifle, and/or shotgun. Those three elements - speed, accuracy, and power - form the three sides of the practical shooting triangle. By design, each match will measure a shooter’s ability in all three areas.

As defined by the United States Practical Shooting Association.

Oak Park Sportsmen’s Club USPSA Practical Shooters season runs from April through October. Match dates can be found on our club calendar.  All Matches are shot outside in our newly renovated ranges.  Check-in is at our clubhouse located next to the parking lot.
