Guest Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Anyone tried A1 shooting ground in Hertfordshire?can you shoot there solo got afternoon off might go up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Not too bad a ground, the groundsman is a bit of a strange character but the family that run the ground are lovely - rather expensive though these days. Can't remember if the traps can be automatic, i'm pretty sure they can though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitchynik Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 32p a pop now They have delayed traps on buttons at each stand. You might want to call in advance as they now have a reduced ESP layout if they're running Skeet practice. Birds are more varied but tougher and further than at Broomhills.

huffhuff Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Yep, shove the card in and hit the delay button on the same box (not the remotes). You'll need to get a shifty on though. Ring ahead as Nik said. Claudio is the guy that owns it, I think his wife/kids also work there. Trying to remember the name of the groundsman. Likes carving you up with the bucket Good layout, some nice high birds off the towers. Nice to walk around and a good selection of stands. They also do DTL and all that other foreign stuff Mind the cars in the car park, they tend to be expensive... and mind your life when you're pulling in and out of the entrance...

Catamong Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 The Groundsman name is Wayne, I think his surname may be Kerr..?? :blink: A nice ground, absolutely super family that run it, but, being Italian, they've tended to focus on what they know best, and that's Tarp shooting. The Sporting layout is not that special, but the ZZ's are great fun As huffhuff has said, you run a serious risk of being shunted when turning into the ground, following drivers assume that you're taking the next left turn to Borehamwood about 300 yards further on, take care..!!

garyb Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Not a bad little ground... to be honest I prefer the coffee and cake on offer over the shooting though :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
