Wing & Barrel Ranch, the premier private day club located in the heart of Sonoma, shoots for the skies as they have recently completed their long-awaited High Tower game hunting experience.

Designed by highly regarded shooting instructor Chris Batha, and England's Ray Wing Shooting Towers owner David Wing, this innovatively interactive structure offers a cutting-edge shooting experience complete with its sleek design and challenging multi-trap clay targets.

This new High Tower is also the only one in the U.S. ever designed by the prestigious Ray Wing, and the Ranch's Co-Founder and CEO Darius Anderson guarantees it to be the perfect new activity for groups and other shooting enthusiasts wanting an authentic game experience.

“I have personally worked with Chris and David to create this unique and challenging addition to the ranch, Anderson enthuses, "Our mission is to celebrate and preserve the traditions of the American West and the sporting life. Adding the High Tower to our shooting course takes those efforts to a completely new level."

Anderson highlights the 85-foot tall tower's distinguishing feature of being able to deliver targets which not only release from different heights, but also mimick birds "in flight with overhead and crisscrossing patterns, all at speeds seen in a natural environment." This dynamic is unique solely to Wing & Barrel Ranch, which adds to their distinctly luxurious and serene resort experience.
