As an alternate viewpoint to that one, Red's (both locations) is very supportive of women and beginner shooters, although all types of shooters go there. Austin Sure Shots, the women's gun club, shoots out of Red's. Great group of ladies.
As far as prices, it's always more expensive to shoot at ranges in big cities. Below are basic prices - always costs less for military/LEO, multi-visit punch cards, discount/ladies nights, etc.
DFW Gun Club (Dallas) = $18
Elm Fork (Dallas) = $16
Quail Creek (Argyle) = $14
Elk Castle (Ft Worth) = $14
Winchester Gallery (Ft Worth) = $13.50
Red's (Austin) = $14
I've been shooting at all of the ranges above....all were very crowded, weeknight or weekend. The longest waits I've had for a lane to open up were in Dallas (over an hour). Red's was no different. What can you do, lots of people in Texas like to shoot.
This is a professional soldier's website, and I realize Red's may not meet the needs of experienced, professional shooters, depending on what they want to do at the range. But I thought your choice of wording was a bit severe. Red's is good people, whether they meet your needs or not.
