Fuddster Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Evening all, Just wondered if anybody on PW ever shot at Whittle Dene/Northumbrian water clay club? I was introduced to shooting there back around 1984-there were some good old boys there and great craic. Sadly I think it is no longer running. cheers fudds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Rabbit Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Your thinking of Harlow Hill Gun Club and the pub was\is the Robin Hood. Like several other clubs in the area it lost its lease many years ago. I shot there several times at interclub shoots and they always fielded a strong team. It stuck in my mind that it was the only local Sunday club that allowed plastic wads. The regular members still seem to shoot together as a sort of roving clay syndicate as I've seen them from time to time at other shoots. I have no contact details for them as I only know them by sight. Big hats and big cigars if you remember?! Regards WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuddster Posted August 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 cheers WR that was the shoot i was on about. big hats sound like Geoff and his son in law. we used to shoot Baikal trap shells there-£8 per 100 back then all good fun and sadly gone now. cheers for the response f.
