Julesy Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Nottingham & District on the A614 north of Nottingham - 8 skeet layouts, specialist skeet instructors if you'd like some tuition and the place where most skeet shooters will be hanging out this year as we have a very busy skeet calendar We also do skeet workshops on a Sunday afternoon if you are new to the discipline Give us a call on 01623 883798 - we have loads of regular shooters who come from Sheffield so could introduce you to some for potential lift shares Julia NDGC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julesy Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Hey Gee - it will be entries via CPSA website, we'll be able to take entries in the week leading up to it but not until then. If you are looking for a Sunday slot you will need to be on your toes!! Forgot to say (hence the edit), that we are really looking forward to it too. Make sure you say hello Edited January 24, 2013 by Julesy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julesy Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Hi Bunnykiller, thanks for the offer. We haven't started doing any planning for it yet but think we might be ok for refs. Will defo keep you in mind though. Send me a quick email at the ground on info@nottinghamanddistrictgunclub.co.uk Thanks again Julia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJon Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Excellent ground (notts) and good sporting layout too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee. Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Cheers Julia, I will be refreshing the screen constantly for a Sunday slot Otherwise, Its a bloody long way to make 2 trips if I am lucky enough to make a shoot off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julesy Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 If you don't get a Sunday let me know and we can recommend somewhere for you to stay over. We will have a normal registered comp in skeet running alongside the English on the Sunday and will also have practice in skeet and sporting available. You may as well make a weekend of it, the notts countryside is at its best in may Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
