  3. Sporting clay Grounds recommendations in Cheshire area

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    Posted · Edited by Ian E

    Fauxdegla is a Trap ground, the sporting targets aren't great and in my experience you will get a few stand which will only throw one brid, or are straight into the sun.

    The compaq layout is good, and of course all the trap layouts are at there top of the game.

    NWSS Sealand now has a 25 bird sportap trap (soon to be 50 bird) which changes weekly on the Olympic trap layout on a Saturday, they are also hosting a 75 Bird FITASC on the 7th Dec. The weekly additional sportrap does have a promatic clay mate system, but currently they have a buttoner every Saturday. They will be rolling out claymate across the ground.

    There are also regular regged sortrap comps. 75-100 bird..

     

    You could also have a look at Glossop/Boar grounds.

     

  9. NoE Regional inter-counties sporting comp at Blackpool CSS on the 23rd

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    The North Region will be holding a NoE Regional inter-counties sporting comp at Blackpool clay shooting club on the 23rd of Oct 2016 (10am till 2pm last entry) This is also the Lanc's County Championship.
    A team is to comprise of 5 pre-nominated shooters, but also ad-hoc teams could be formed on the day - the only stipulation being that the team members had to be CPSA Members from the same County and obviously nominated before shooting started. The best 4 scores from these 5 would make up the total team score, and a small ‘levy’ of £1 per team member going towards, a ‘pot’ for the winning team, along with a nicely engraved crystal plaque for each of the 5 team members.
    The team can be submitted to the staff at Blackpool on the day, before they shoot, you do not all have to shoot together.
    Hope to see you there.

     

  15. Markers required this Sunday the 16th Aug at Blackpool

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    Posted

    Had just about enough markers \ ref's on the day all adults I may add, no 12 year old kids

     

    And it was a really good shoot with 115 entry's

     

    Ideally every ground should use full qualified ref's. One there just isn't enough of them around and two is the cost of payment, the extra cost just gets passed onto the shooter in the end.

     

    Even the CPSA struggle to get the ref's for their major events sometimes so what hope does a small ground have.

     

    imo the regional committees should put on free or heavily subsidised ref's courses in the major disciplines that way you could build up a good base of ref's

     

    CPSA HQ gives a kick back on courses held in a region which would subsides the cost, the North region committee has plenty of money in the bank, there are only so many badges and trophy's you can buy with all those levy's

     

    Maybe I will bring it up at the next meeting...

  21. Cabinet in the loft

    in Clay Pigeon Shooting

    Posted · Edited by Ian E

    My ones in the loft..

     

    I drilled the wall put resin in with threaded rods, then coach bolts into the loft joists

     

    Mine is laying down as the wall isn't flat enough, in places you would of been able to get a bar behind it.

     

    If you have to do yours the same have the door opening towards you, then there's no chance of the crowbarring the door open as there isn't enough space between the cabinet and the wall.

     

    Oh and fit a proper loft ladder and boards whilst your at it and don't forget a nice big strip light and a drop down table to clean your gun on :)
