R6demon Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hi All, The BASC Introduction to Pigeon Shooting course in the Herts Beds Bucks Cambridge area was cancelled through lack of interest, however Bakerboy suggested that if we could get enough people interested, he would speak to the powers that be about arranging another.

Wymondley Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 How many are needed to make this viable? Perhaps indicating some potential locations might encourage some more interest. Herts, Beds, Cambs and Bucks is a pretty big area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerboy Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 12/15 would be a good number. Once we have an indication of numbers we can then find a venue, and publicise it more widely.. A lot of this depends on how far people are prepared to travel about 1 hour seems to be acceptable Places such as the A1 Shooting Ground, AGL, and Sporting Targets at Riseley have been used in the past. We require a good size meeting room, an area outside for hide building and laying out decoy patterns, and then of course a place to shoot.

R6demon Posted January 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 I live over near St Neots, but I would be happy to travel for an hour to attend. Riseley would make for a good venue I would have thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 I have voted in favour. I had been considering driving from Essex to Kibworth (approx. 2 hours) as all the other courses were way up north, so something closer to home would be great. Went to a really good 'Improve your shooting day' run by BASC at West Kent SG last year , had been hoping there would be another this year but it's not on the list of courses yet. Hopefully they will be organising another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
