Che_Nottm Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) Hi All, On a recent holiday my missus and I tried clay shooting up near Hull. We both really enjoyed it and I have mailed some gun clubs near us (Nottingham & Kegworth) to get more info on tutoring with an eye to getting into the sport Is there much of a scene in Nottingham? Any tips or advice anyone can give about these clubs or others I should be looking at? From the initial lessons the gun hire prices seem very reasonable and the cartridges too. On our lesson we only used a 20 gauge semi auto (think it was called Franchi or something like that) which seemed a really nice weight and we were suprisingly accurate with, hitting at least half of what we shot at on our first ever lesson, the fiancee even managed 5 out of 5 on her first ever skeet, I managed 4 out of 5 which I was well chuffed with ) I have to put that down to a really good instructor though! Hope to get some positive feedback from the clubs Cheers Che Edited September 11, 2008 by Che_Nottm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxey Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 hi, che ive just started going down to orston sg nr grantham and ive found the people down ther very helpful, and the sg is exellent, they charge £20 a lesson. the best part is try before you buy, if theyve got any gun 2nd hand you can try it on the leyouts, as i found out last wk end i invested in a new browning, all the best mox. www.orston.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che_Nottm Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Much appreciated moxey, Ive just sent them an email requesting more info Weve got another lesson on Sunday booked at Nottingham (rufford) but they charge £35-30 per lesson so the orston site sounds like great value. Many thanks Che Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
