Trap Shooting






The Sioux Falls Izaak Walton League hosts trap shooting on Wednesday nights from late April through October. Youth trap league is also hosted on Monday and Thursday nights.  Additional information for these events can be found on the calendar tab. 

The trap range was renovated in the fall of 2017 with the addition of new trap houses and station updates.  New lighting was added to trap 5 in the fall of 2021.  Three new trap throwers were added in 2022.
