Wolf Creek Shooting Complex
The Wolf Creek Shooting Complex, now known as the Tom Lowe Shooting Grounds, is a firing range located southwest of Atlanta, Georgia, United States, in Fulton County. During the 1996 Summer Olympics, it hosted the shooting event. Until 2002, it was also often used for ISSF World Cup competitions in rifle and pistol events, although such competitions, when held in the United States, have now reverted to being carried out at Fort Benning.
The venue is now owned by the Parks & Recreation Department of Fulton County.
It has 20 trap and skeet shooting combination fields, and nine lighted areas.
The facility has been host to several NSSA State and Zone skeet tournaments.
The range is also home to recreational shooting leagues such as the Atlanta Skeet and Trap League.
