Philmont Rod & Gun Club

Letter From the President:

Welcome to the website of the Philmont Rod & Gun Club located in the Village of Philmont in the Hudson Valley of Upstate New York. The mission of our club is to promote true sportsmanship and for the pleasure of its members with rod and gun at its camps and in the fields and streams of our County and of the State of New York. We are a 200 member organization dedicated to promoting hunter's rights, preserving open space, and preserving legal and safe gun ownership.

The Philmont Rod & Gun Club has been in existence since 1923 and was incorporated in 1928. We offer our members outdoor shooting ranges, trap ranges, sporting clays, 3D archery, a fishing pond and over 1500 acres of owned and/or posted land for hunting deer, turkey, and small game.

PRGC offers a host of opportunities for many to enjoy the outdoor activities available within our club grounds and surrounding areas. The Rod & Gun Club provides the facilities, education, and camaraderie to take advantage of these opportunities.

If you have any questions about our club, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
