What makes a good clay ground?

It's nice to have somebody on the forum with a bit of shooting pedigree about them, but don't let the vocal Essex fraternity wind you up, they're a bunch of "dabblers", last year it was windsurfing, this year clay shooting, next year, who knows, paintballing or maybe skydiving. :rolleyes:

 

 

At the last forum shoot at Hodnet, I thought the dabblers weren't that far behind the serious pro's.

 

All those CPSA subs and entry fees, all those miles on your car, all those weekends stuck in traffic, all those miles flown and you were but a handful of clays in front of a weekend haybaler / dabbler.

 

Fortunately, as a haybaling weekend dabbler, I can't take it that seriously to get that worried about a handful of clays, but if I were you, I would let it bother me :lol:

 

If you want to chase round the land to get a handful better than the next bloke then good luck to you, but I would get too high and mighty and disparaging of the haybaling self scoring fraternity because they are and remain in the majority of clay shooters.

Just wondering what everyone looks for in their favourite (or ideal) clay ground?

 

I'd like:

 

Choice of 25 / 50 / 100 Sporting changing layouts every week

 

Flush / Flurry single and 'team'

 

Sport Trap

 

Skeet

 

Hot food & drinks

 

Not having small minded idiots trying to tell everyone else how to have fun and enjoy the sport. Some of the attitudes shown by shooters to newcommers, people they just havent seen before or people who aren't their mates STINKS. Also no excuses for breaking the safety protocls "becuase you think your safe" like walking around with unslipped un broken guns, shooting from outside the stands "cause the sun was in your eyes" not picking up spent carts and putting 3 in your semi because you can...
