newbod Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 hello all. Fairly new to the sport, done a bit of clays and pigeon shooting, applied for my licence with surrey not too long ago and was amazed at the short period of time it took! anyone know of the best and cheapest place to shoot in surrey, not including bisley...

-Mongrel- Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) http://www.surreysportingclub.co.uk/ Not a million miles from you and sounds quite nice, somebody did recommend it at some time. http://www.cobhamsportinggun.co.uk/page3.html Could be a cheaper way to get some shooting? Looking for a bit more practice before being let loose? I suspect that your employer may have had an effect on the speed of your certificate grant, friends in high places and all that! ...unless you aren't who I think you are!

newbod Posted August 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 HDAV, cheers for the heads up, Gibraltar Bks club ran by a senior? I'm over in Aldershot, I have heard there is a syndicate at mine but when i spoke to the senior he stated i would need my own Shotgun before i could shoot, its a fair one but i wont have my own for a few months.
