I used to shoot a lot trap there (twice a week) and had a lot of fun over there, but the commute was killing me. I live in west linn and its like 25 min. They were turning over employees a few months ago and when I go now, the staff is not very knowledgeable.

Are they actually friendly to newbies,as their blurb says?
also,do thay have an 'easy' trap for newbies? one that just throws straight away?

yep,I know little of actually hitting a clay target,but it's fun to try.

Well not really. Most of their employees are old semi-retired clay/bird shooters that are kind of crotchity and very anal. If they don't know who you are, then they will act as if you have never shot a gun before.

They are have high low, rabbits and trap. You can get very close to the traps to make it easier.

They have a great location for Portland Shotgun shooters

I would go all the time if they had Skeet.

Trap and Sporting Clays............that's it.
