Welcome to Foothills Defensive Shooters!
FDS has been holding matches since 2000 known for a friendly atmosphere and the great people that come out to shoot with us. The true test of any club is keeping shooters coming back but also attracting new ones.
We extend an open invitation to the new shooters. It is always a joy to watch someone at their first match realize that this is not so hard after all. They relax, have a good time and make new friends. Some practice between matches while others practice AT the matches. Both methods are rewarded with results each shooter can appreciate.
Come out and see what we are about. We’ll do our best to ensure that new shooters and seasoned veterans have a great time. Feel free to contact us with questions.
