About the Brandon Gun Club:

The Brandon Gun Club has been in its present location since the early 1960’s. It saw it’s first expansion from 5 trap houses to 9 trap houses in the early 1980’s. In 1984 the club hosted the Canadian Trapshooting Championships which caused them to expand their facility again to 18 trap houses. Since then the Club has expanded to include a skeet layout and 5-stand sporting clays, allowing the Brandon Gun Club to facilitate all shotgun sports.
