Is there some good use for sport=shooting_range?

Or is it always preferable to use sport=shooting + leisure=pitch?

The sport key should be used to indicate the activity .. not the physical existence. Despite what the OSMwiki says though various edits.

The physical presence is give by some other key, such as landuse=recreation_ground, pitch, etc...


---------------------

Tangents.

Sports?

Just as skiing can be either snow or water .. shooting by some can be taken as bow and arrow or guns ...


Pitches?

While 'pitch' is good for many playing fields it doe not suit so well for some e.g. darts, table tennis, chess.


Leisure?

As some have pointed out some sports are played for money .. and some for both leisure and money. It would be good to move away from the leisure key to the landuse key .. non specific as to leisure or 'professional'. Yes it could create overlap of various landuses .. nothing new there though.
