suggs Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 well i hope to get a few hours shooting on Sunday morning, either at Hawley or Shrove Hill if you or anyone else wants to come out to play, weather permiting that is but its forcast as dry H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 be warned that hawley is very competition oriented on a sunday, if you shoot you generally shoot the 50 comp and take your time about it as there are normally 4 or 5 shooter ques. However ive never shot it this time of year before, so could be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GamezBond Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Hi ppl, i am also kind of new to the Dartford area and am looking to get together with like minded people. I went passed JJ's yesterday but I think they were already closed. it was about 5pm. So will go there again to check out their price etc. Does any one know? LB, You should try n get one of those GPS things. Halfords are doing one for eBuyer.com is doing one £50, and free delivery i think. Can be very handy when looking for a new place. I got something similar on my phone, and its great. Cheers. GB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I'm based near Canary Wharf and I consider Hawleys, JJs and Shrove Hill as my local shoots. I only started shooting in Feb this year. Hawleys on a Sunday is busy up until 1:30. I turned up at 1:45 and did the 100 bird comp, ran around all 10 stands in no time at all, and only had wait at two of them, which was handy as I got to watch someone shoot first. Hawley also has Skeet and Compaq ranges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Hawley is also my local, nice club, quite small with a relitively easy sporting setup, very friendly owners of the club. Let me know if your heading down there soon, i will make the effort to join you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Elvis Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 :blink: Where is Hawley? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamezBond Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Does anyone know charges at different clubs if you been there. can you post them here please. I know Greenfields do a good deal on Sundays/ about £10 for 25 clays all inclusinve I think. I rang JJ's but they charge £40 for 35 clays (i may have forgotton the exact figure though). They sounded very friendly, but if me and my mrs go, then its worth the extra fuel to get to Greenfields so we will spend less than half the money. Also Greenfields is closer to scenic Canterbury and a better view when compared to Dartford :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 I rang JJ's but they charge £40 for 35 clays (i may have forgotton the exact figure though). Doesn't sound right. Last time I was there I think it was £17 for 70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamezBond Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Peter De La Mare, was it all inclusive, i mean gun hire, cartridges etc? £17 is a very good price for me if it is all inclusive cos I leve quite close to JJ's. Greenfields price is all inclusive btw. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter De La Mare Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Oh, sorry......no that is clays only. I wasn't aware that you were looking for the whole kit and caboodle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
