Griffin & Howe Shooting Academy

Griffin & Howe Shooting Academy, located at Hudson Farm in Andover, New Jersey, is one of the most established shooting schools in the United States, delivering structured, instructor-led training across all skill levels. With a legacy rooted in professional instruction, the academy operates as a private, instruction-only facility, ensuring every shooter receives focused, purpose-driven coaching rather than open-range access.

‍

At the core of the academy is its long-range rifle capability, extending out to approximately 900 yards, making it one of the longest accessible training distances in the state. Instruction is fully tailored, whether the shooter is stepping behind a rifle for the first time or refining advanced marksmanship and ballistic understanding.

‍

Training is delivered through private sessions and small-group formats, with up to four students per instructor, allowing for high instructor engagement and individualized progression.

‍

Key Training Areas Include:

• Fundamental rifle marksmanship for new shooters
• Precision shooting and technique refinement
• Scope setup, zeroing, and ballistic data application
• Caliber selection and hunting preparation
• Performance-focused coaching for experienced shooters.

‍

The academy’s staff includes instructors with professional and operational backgrounds, bringing real-world experience into a controlled and supportive training environment. With facilities open seven days a week, Griffin & Howe positions itself as a high-end, appointment-based training destination rather than a casual shooting venue.

For those serious about building rifle skills, whether for hunting, competition, or personal development, this is a structured environment focused on measurable improvement.
