IDPA Member numbers must be presented. Please try to bring the exact cash amount. No checks or money orders accepted. All "first-time shooters" can shoot for free. Under the IDPA Rules, you may shoot one match without being a member, otherwise you will be required to be an IDPA Member to enter a match. Visit the IDPA website for further information.

Welcome to the West Georgia Tactical Shooter's website. We hope that this website will be an informative tool to help our readers better understand what our club represents and how you can join us for our monthly IDPA matches. Please see the Calendar for the NEW WINTER HOURS. We will be starting the events at 1:00 pm for February and March instead of 9:00 am. Also this January shoot we have a low light shoot that will begin at 5:00 pm. Please marke your calendars.

We meet at the Little River Gun Club. Please visit the "Range Facility" page for directions and range information.

If you are not familiar with the International Defensive pistol Association (IDPA) we have several pages on this site to help you get a better understanding for action shooting matches. We welcome beginner shooters with some pistol skills and highly recommend that you become familiar with the expectations you will be required to perform as a shooter, safety rules and IDPA rules.

If you are a first-time IDPA shooter (not a member of IDPA) you may shoot your first match for free, thereafter you will be required to be an IDPA member and present your membership card and member number at each shoot.

Each person who enters the WGTS matches will be required to undergo a one-time short safety class at no cost. This class will help you understand the rules of safety and get familiar with the Range Safety Officers and their expectations. Of course, we will continue to open each match with our regular safety briefings.

Our goal is to have fun, practice action-shooting skills and join one another as a friendly group of individuals with a common interest.

We welcome spectators. However, we don't recommend young children attending these matches. If you do bring a young child/infant they must be with an adult spectator at all times (this adult will not be allowed to compete and must stay with the child). No child will not be permitted to sit as a spectator in the pistol pit (under the covered sitting area) and will be required to only stay back where the vehicles park. We remind you that all children, spectators and shooters must wear hearing and eye protection at all times.

We want everyone to enjoy his or her day and have fun but most of all, be safe. Please consider other shooters and please try to act in a courteous, sportsmanship manner. We welcome new ideas and scenarios. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to contact us. Everyone is welcome to visit our discussion forums.

Thank you,
West Georgia Tactical Shooters
