Grand Prix of Thailand - Compak Sporting (January 2025)

The 333 Shooting Range, located in the scenic Mae Rim foothills near Chiang Mai, Thailand, is a recognized world-class venue specializing in high-end clay target shooting. Its elite status is highlighted by its role as a regular host for international FITASC Championships. The complex's most distinct competitive feature is its integration with the natural mountainous landscape, which features elevations up to 721 meters. This challenging topography allows course designers to create highly realistic and complex target flight trajectories-such as high-angle or steep drop shots-that are critical for professional Sporting Clays training and unattainable on typical flat ranges.  

The range's infrastructure is engineered to meet stringent global competition standards, supporting a full range of shotgun disciplines, including Sporting Clays, Skeet, and Olympic Trench. Operational reliability is guaranteed by using top-tier equipment from global industry leaders, Promatic and Laporte, complete with the automatic, transparent Claymate Target Counting System. This technical sophistication, combined with the demanding courses, makes the range an ideal training ground for elite athletes and national teams, while also providing a premium, high-quality experience for recreational shooters and affluent tourists.  

The range successfully caters to a diverse clientele, offering training from personalized beginner instruction to advanced tactical preparation. Safety and operational excellence are paramount, evidenced by the strict adherence to protocols, including a mandatory age restriction (20 years and older) and original passport verification for all shooters. Logistically, the facility is highly attractive to international visitors due to its daily operation (09:00–18:00) and its strategic location in Mae Rim, which provides easy access to several premium resorts in the greater Chiang Mai area. This combination of world-class sporting challenge and convenient high-end hospitality ensures a complete and professional shooting experience.
