stevo_m Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Closest/best I know of will be High Lodge. I think there is another just past Bury on the A14 but cannot remember the name of the club.

Dissduck Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hi, I shoot at Wymondham and District clay club. The ground is at Besthorpe just outside Attleborough but club closed until new season (March).By the way, I live in Diss. The club is very informal in that no scores are kept or competitions, you turn up with required paperwork (certificate and insurance)pay your joining fee and pay for shooting.There are 5 stands and you shoot 50 clays Sunday mornings 2-3 times per month. There is another club just north of Long Stratton nr Tasburgh. Hope that helps, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazzmeister Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Hitclays runs a corking shoot twice a month near Dereham and it's not that far - several of us travel from Long Stratton area and it's worth it. You can use plastic wads which you can't do at Tas Valley and every time the layout is different so you can't get bored :thumbs: He also runs flushes for PW members and these have become so popular that the next one in March has guys and girls coming from Kent, Herts (the Massive), Cambs, Lincs, Suffolk, Essex (the Posse) and probably other places we Norfolk folk haven't even heard of. It's run with an emphasis on fun and safety and if you want to go back to a stand to find out how (or where) you were missing you can I've shot most grounds in the area and it's far and away the best (only my opinion but I'm not alone in thinking this). The local pub lays on food afterwards and that's all included in the £22 entry fee PM me if you'd like to know more (or Hitclays - he runs it when all's said and done) and one of us will tell you more. In case you think it's an amateur set up he also runs Chatsworth clay shoot and several other national shows. Next one is this Sunday at 11am and the forecast is looking sunny and not too breezy Hope this helps Edited February 17, 2012 by Chazzmeister Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissduck Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hi, you need to check your membership details of BASC, I am not a member so cannot help on that.Sorry.

Chazzmeister Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Hi Dissduck what do you mean by bring along insurance? i am a member of BASC is that sufficiant? Cheers Rich As far as I know BASC, Countryside Alliance, CPSA and SSA all give you enough insurance cover - don't quote me as it's horses for courses but I know that the FairClayTargets shoots at Dereham are insured by hitclays himself for everyone's safety. It's only sensible and responsible to have your own insurance though but I think BASC should see you properly covered. Someone more experienced than me in the arcane ways of legalese may be able to give you the definitive answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
