sg1 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Yet again we have come to another 5th Sunday of the month with no shoot to go to We're okay for the 1st Sunday of month (Lurgurshall),2nd Sunday(Goodwood),4th Sunday(Goodwood) and one of our 'group' puts on a private shoot for us on usually/hopefully either the 3rd or 5th Sunday of month but never on both Sundays so we nearly always end up every month with a non shooting Sunday morning . We sometimes go to Southdowns but being a Sunday it's usually only the Compact Sporting available because of all the regular comps. We've heard of a shoot in Wittering but I can't find any info online and so any info on this shoot or any other shoot local to us would be great. It's usually just a group of 3 of us (sometimes 4) , Hope someone can help us in our time of need. atvb sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sg1 Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Thanks for that but as you mentioned, a 'bit' out of our way :unsure: , It will be easier soon when I'm back on the road but for now we have to stay a tad more local. atvb sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bb Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 There's a 3rd Sunday shoot just over the border in Hampshire, Petersfield Gun Club. Don't know of any 5th Sunday since Hensting Lane (Winchester) closed down. I believe that Emsworth has also closed down recently. Isn't there one in/near Chichester or is that the Goodwood one? Any detals of Goodwood please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg1 Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Isn't there one in/near Chichester or is that the Goodwood one? Any detals of Goodwood please? The Goodwood shoot is for members only +1 which is how I go because my dad is a member and so is my RFD if I go with him. It's held on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of month, Members price is £12.00(iirc) and non members price is £15.00 for 50 birds shot over 5 stands with covered firing points. The clubhouse is a nice log cabin with reasonably priced tea,coffee, bacon,sausage,egg rolls and homemade sponge cake to DIE FOR . Toilets are clean and car parking is not too bad if you get there early enough atvb sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sg1 Posted November 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 http://www.chiarm.co.uk/id48.html That's a bit of an outdated list as the Emsworth one is no longer running since last year IIRC thanks for reply though atvb sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarn2215 Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 What about hambrook? That used to be the 3rd Sunday of the month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg1 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) What about hambrook? That used to be the 3rd Sunday of the month? That's the same one just mentioned(Emsworth) that closed down last year, I believe the owner/organiser got pi**ed of with all the silly complaints from residents!! atvb sg1 Edited November 7, 2011 by sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarn2215 Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Wow that must have been easy to narrow down the complaints considering there were like 2 residents in a miles radius! Is Densworth still running their shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg1 Posted November 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Wow that must have been easy to narrow down the complaints considering there were like 2 residents in a miles radius! It ONLY takes ONE!! atvb sg1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodbepigeonshooter Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 I know it's the opposite direction but only 40 mile from Southdown and a great shoot. http://www.surreysportingclub.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
