mark_mjs93 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 ok i wasnt sure were to post this one.... today i got a letter through from basc about a young shots meet at a clay range near me... now i have NEVER been to a young shots meet so i dont know how it will play out.... also can someone help me clear up a few grey spots for me.... it is clay shooting... will i require a shotgun certificate when im going to a basc shoot? the letter states the fee as £15 does this cover carts gun etc? how will the day play out? and what should i wear? i have a weird feeling that the others there will be dressed like posh game shooters (not stereotyping, im just giving you an idea) i can imagine turning up in jeans and a shirt and getting the WORST looks ever.... also... i have shot clays a few times before (not at a clay range... a family friends farm, he was there and let me use his gun) but i was really bad... on the young shots day is tuition available? im looking to sort my SGC out one day soon and i would like to get some good tuition before hand... thanks people ATB Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Master Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 On the occasions that one has frequented Young Shots days... I've worn jeans, trainers and a rugby shirt. Guns and cartridges will be provided and I'm guessing that unless it is a 'progression day' that you won't just be clay shooting. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I went to one a year or so ago, I just wore jeans and a checked shirt, there was clay shooting, air rifles, fly casting, dog handling, ferret handling and looking at birds whilst it poured with rain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
