Sharpeye Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Having recently been on an adventure day doing a number of outdoor pursuits one of those being Clay pigeon shooting, I feel I may have been bitten by the bug, I live in Berkshire and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a club or local ground where I can maybe do some supervised shooting and see if I want to take it up, there are a few small gun shops local to me, but they don't have much in the way of choices to look at and get a feel for when it comes to guns, so any advice on this front is appreciated. Thanks all in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 HEllo and welcome there are a mixture of shoots near to berkshire including the NCSC at Bisley, Royal Berkshire, Holland and Holland and lots of others all offer lessons at various price points and most have shops to drool over as well. http://www.cpsa.co.uk/find-a-club lists clubs and grounds as does BASC http://www.basc.org.uk/en/shooting/clay-shooting/ http://www.claybusters-wokingham.co.uk/ is a local friendly ground and probably a lot cheaper than the others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickS Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Welcome! There are a good number of Sunday morning shoots that do not require membership and offer tuition and gun loan. Until you are granted your shot gun certificate you will need places that have an exemption to allow non-holders to shoot. I am on the NW Surrey / Hants border if you want a chat about places near here. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bedwards1966 Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 The first couple of posts require moderation before they appear. My guess is that this post was put up to get started, then another post which the mods took a dislike to and therefore is gone, but leaving the post count at 2. I suspect that he/she/it didn't expect the second post to be moderated, and tried spamming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
