TACTICAL FITNESS HOUSTON

# About Tactical Fitness Houston

Operated by TFOREV, LLC. Last reviewed 2026-08-24.

Tactical Fitness Houston is the Houston-area operation of Tactical Fitness, a private outdoor firearms and events company founded in Austin in 2016 by Ron Grobman. We run private machine gun experiences and precision rifle training for groups that want a real range day, not a strip mall lane with a 30 minute timer.

## What we actually do

Everything runs at The Ranch Club, a 150 acre private ranch in Eagle Lake, Texas, 67 miles west of downtown Houston on I-10. The property has 20 outdoor ranges. Your group gets its own dedicated bay for the length of your event. There are no shared lanes, no other groups on your line, and no rental counter.

Two lines of business run out of that venue:

- **Group experiences.** Corporate team building, client entertainment, bachelor parties, and private group events built around a collection of more than 100 machine guns, belt-feds included. All ammunition, gear, hearing and eye protection, and instruction are included in one price. Five person minimum.
- **Private long-range and precision rifle training.** One-on-one and small group instruction out to 1,000 yards, by appointment, with an ex-special-forces instructor. Six hour private session for up to three people.

## What it costs

| Offering | Price | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Full Auto | $699 per person + tax | 1 to 2 hours of machine guns. Early bird, 21+ days out. Five person minimum. |
| The Rapid Fire Experience | $899 per person + tax | 3 to 4 hours. Tactical rifle, then machine guns. Early bird, 21+ days out. |
| The Corporate Experience | $1,029 per person + tax | Rapid Fire plus the private clubhouse and catered lunch or BBQ. Early bird, 21+ days out. |
| Private long-range training | $1,500 per session | Six hours, up to three people, by appointment. |

Group pricing rises closer to the date: $749 and $799 for Full Auto, $999 and $1,099 for Rapid Fire, $1,129 and $1,229 for Corporate, at 11 to 20 days and inside 10 days respectively. Full current pricing is on the [home page](https://tacticalfitnesshouston.com/).

## Who runs your event

Every event is led by certified instructors with military, law enforcement, and competitive shooting backgrounds. Safety brief first, every time, before anyone touches a weapon. About 30 to 40 percent of a typical group are first-time shooters, and the instruction is built for that.

### Ron Grobman, Founder and Lead Instructor

Founded Tactical Fitness in 2016. Former sniper and 1st sergeant in the IDF's Gad'sar Nahal special forces, and once the youngest certified Krav Maga instructor in the U.S. More than a decade training civilians, law enforcement, and security teams.

### Jon Wayne Taylor, Combat Medicine Instructor

Police officer and U.S. Army combat veteran with multiple deployments. Decades as an EMT and combat medic. Teaches Tactical Combat Casualty Care around the world.

### Karl, Tactical Rifle and Handgun Instructor

Australian special operations veteran. Served in the Australian Army's Special Air Service Regiment with a 2019 Iraq deployment, then the Western Australia Police Force before joining Tactical Fitness.

## Track record

- Rated 5.0 from 440+ five-star reviews across Google and TripAdvisor.
- Operating since 2016, thousands of clients served.
- Corporate groups have included teams from Samsung, YPO, and Jackson Walker LLP.

## What we are not

We do not operate an indoor lane range, a retail gun store, or a walk-in facility in Houston itself. There is nothing to visit in the city. Every event runs at the Eagle Lake venue, by appointment, on a date we hold for your group. If you are looking for an hour of pistol rentals near downtown, we are the wrong call, and we will tell you so on the phone.
