lxtav Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 One of the guys on the shift at work has been asking me about going clay pigeon shooting for a couple of months now so we finally managed to get a day when we are both free and I'm taking him out tommorrow. He has shot before as he was in the ATC and shot full bore target rifles so he knows all about safety and how to handle guns. Might get another cert holder out of this as he loved shooting in the ATC if he can just convince his girlfriend to allow him to get a gun.

cleaner4hire Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Always good to get new people into shooting safely. Ive been taking a mate of mine out rabbiting recently after a fair bit of target practice and he proving a very good shot and definately has the bug.... He keeps pandering to his wife though and wont take the plunge and apply for his FAC!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarsdad Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 I took a few lads out from work on the clays a few weeks back and they all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. A few keep asking to go again as well so more potential additions to the sport can only be a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Poon Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Out of interest do you charge your mates for clay shooting with you , as its always me and my wife that goes clay shooting:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarsdad Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 They just paid the ground the normal fee and I accompanied them under the section 11 license cover. I didn't charge anything and even provided carts as I am nice like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lxtav Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Mates pay for the clays used at the price i pay which is cheaper as i am a member at the ground and i supply the gun and carts. I jokingly mentioned about cleaning the guns afterwards and he said no probs would love to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
