Welcome to the Nenameseck Sportsmen's
Club Web Site (pronounced Nen na mess ick). The club is located on Bacon road in
Palmer, Massachusetts. We offer a wide variety of ranges and sporting teams for both
the Archer and Shooter alike.
Our outdoor rifle range features covered shooting positions with backstops at
100, 200 and 300 yards. The firing line provides a level concrete floor
with large shooting benches at each station. The club also provides a 25 yard handgun
range next to the main outdoor range and a Turkey Shoot range next to the clubhouse.
Within the clubhouse is our heated 25 yard indoor range.
The club also provides excellent facilities for the archer. In addition to the heated
25 yard indoor range, we provide two outdoor ranges including a 3D multi-station archery
range with varied terrain to provide a challenge for even the most experienced archer.
The club also hosts competitive shooting matches as well as training and instruction
sessions for children.
