Our Shooting Journey and Memories from Golden Ace
Before we became Asthra, we were Golden Ace. Here is a look back at the matches, fun weekends, and first shots that started it all.

About this collection
While our name has evolved from Golden Ace to Asthra, the fundamentals of your stance and that satisfying shooting experience remain exactly the same. We moved our range to a more advanced facility, but we kept our core team and the same safety-first instruction style, ensuring that the guidance you see in these photos is exactly what you get when you step onto our range today.
Looking back at these photos from our days as Golden Ace brings up a lot of memories. It was the starting point for so many of our current shooters, from hobbyists who just wanted to try something new on a Sunday to students who eventually went on to represent us in district trials.
The Continuity of Our Coaching
When we moved from our previous JP Nagar location to our current setup in Doddanekundi, our goal was simple: we wanted to grow the sport. We upgraded to a more controlled, air-conditioned environment to offer better lane setups and more advanced equipment, but the spirit of the place never changed.
- Safety First: The mandatory 10 to 15 minute briefing on range discipline you see in these older photos is still the first thing every new shooter undergoes today.
- Personalised Instruction: Whether you are holding an air rifle for the first time or looking to refine your trigger control, our instructors focus on the same basics: 'Sight Picture' and 'Trigger Control'.
- Community Vibe: We still host the same casual weekend groups, family outings, and corporate team events that made our old range so lively.
Whether you are a complete beginner looking to let off some steam or a serious shooter eyeing the Olympics, you are entering an environment built on years of experience. We take pride in our history because it proves that we are here for the long haul, from your first shot to your next competition.
Asthra Shooting Academy
We started this academy because we wanted a place where the sport could be accessible to everyone. Whether you are visiting us at our new setup or looking back at the fun times at our old range, our mission is to make sure you have a blast while learning how to hold a rifle properly.
