KillStone Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 Haven't been doing any real shooting in a couple years now and fancy change of sport and to try hopefully competing in clay shooting. my question is do any of you know of any decent clay clubs/comp venues in Buckinghamshire, im from aylesbury? And what is the best way to get into clay shooting? Done a few rounds in the past but was always more into pigeon and game shooting hence I don't know where to start! Any help would be great.

aris Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 No, fibre only. Most of these shoots tend to be fibre only. They do sell cartridges there very reasonably - though - under a fiver a box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciating the help mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No insurance needed - saying that, insurance is always a good idea. It doesn't cost much, and you get peace of mind. If the worst were to happen, it could ruin you if you were not insured. We live in a litigious society now. This shoot in High Wycombe has an 11.6 exemption - so you can bring an unlicensed friend if you want.

Would definitely need to get my eye in before anyone I know sees me shoot! Hahaha but that is good-got a couple mates might fancy a go so could be a useful place!

bruno22rf Posted March 16, 2014 Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) Just started going to Drayton Parslow -about 15 minutes from Aylesbury and on every 2 weeks-next meeting on the 23rd-taking my 15 year old and they coach him free of charge and are a really nice group of people-usually over a hundred people attend which is good and tea etc is available on site. Insurance is not compulsory and they have the 11.6 exemption. Edited March 16, 2014 by bruno22rf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
