HAVOC Hill Country Half Day: High-Octane Staccato Shooting Experience Near Florence, Texas

On the rolling limestone ridges north of Florence, Texas, HAVOC Hill Country throws you into a timed, score-driven shooting course that reads more like an obstacle race than a traditional range. At Staccato Ranch, the half-day session condenses high-intensity drills, moving targets, and multiple decision points into 1.5–3 hours of focused, coached practice. The meeting place is the Staccato Ranch Clubhouse (ammo sold on-site) and each session starts with a full course briefing from Staccato-trained range staff who walk you through safety protocols, course rules, target identification, and scoring.

The course sits on classic Texas Hill Country terrain: exposed limestone ledges, shallow canyons cut by seasonal creeks, and stands of live oak and cedar. The geology gives each lane a different sightline and footing, so shooters navigate short climbs, uneven rock, and variable light as they move from station to station. The variety of natural cover and contours makes the drills feel tactical without sacrificing accessibility for experienced recreational shooters.

What makes HAVOC Hill Country notable here is the mix of competition and coaching. Every run is scored on speed and accuracy and posted to a live leaderboard, so solo visitors and small groups can compare times and measure improvement. Rental firearms and on-property ammunition purchases remove barriers for travelers who can’t fly with guns, while a small maximum group size keeps the flow fast and the staff engaged. Sessions run Wednesday through Sunday; the facility holds private events Monday and Tuesday, and for group bookings the Ranch can be reached at (512)819-0656.

Plan for a focused, safety-first outing. Closed-toe shoes are required; bring eye and ear protection if you own them; range staff will provide guidance on rentals and ammunition. Expect 1.5–3 hours on uneven ground under Texas sun or shade depending on the day’s course layout. The experience is ideal for shooters looking to sharpen practical skills under pressure, test a new platform, or inject competitive energy into a Hill Country weekend.

This is not a scenic nature hike; it is a purpose-built shooting experience set against the Hill Country’s rugged features. It’s uniquely local because the HAVOC courses were designed here—the birthplace of the brand—and they use the land’s natural angles to create scenarios you won’t find on a flat commercial range. For visitors staying in Florence or nearby towns, the half-day session is a high-adrenaline way to experience the Texas outdoors with a disciplined, measurable edge. Minimum age is 13, making it accessible to families with older teens under supervision, and typical group size is limited to eight to keep rotations quick and safe. Expect staff to enforce strict safety rules; bring hydration, sun protection, and identification if you intend to purchase ammunition on site and wear hearing protection.
