Another PH Clay shoot
Discussion
After the great success of the last PH Clay shoot at Bisley last month, it was suggested that we have another shoot in the next month or two.
Some suggested that we use the Sandon shooting ground like we did last November, it's 10 mins from j9 A1, near Baldock.
We can only shoot on a Saturday, so if people could post up any Saturdays in July and August that they can't do, we'll try to pick a date that suits as many as possible!
We propose to run a "simulated pigeon shoot" which is a little different from the traditional Trap or English Sporting layout. It involves the shooter not knowing when & where the clays are coming from, much like a real pigeon shoot!You carry on shooting until you're told to stop!
Because of the style of shoot, we won't be able to accommodate COMPLETE novices, although it's suitable for people who have only shot a few times before, even if they didn't hit very many!!!!
Cost will be £25 for 100 clays. Cartridges will cost from £12/100

Nice idea Clive, I'll be up for this as long as I can borrow a gun again...car purchases and house repairs have eaten up the gun-fund, so I've got to start that again from scratch!
Pretty sure I'm clear for every Saturday except 11th August so far.
Cheers,
Martin.

No problem re: borrowing a gun! Let's hope we can get a few PHers along!
And sorry Charlie, I know Saturdays are bad for you, but unfortunately it's the only day we're allowed to shoot due to Local Authority regs!

Only 4 of us ???
Its pretty quiet on here at the moment what with Le Mans and all, so I'd keep this thread ticking over for a while longer.Also may be worth emailing all the regular shooters (who haven't already replied) to draw it to their attention - that's what I did for the last Bisley shoot
I might be up for it, but my list of unavailable Saturdays is quite extensive (so far [and there is a virtual certainty this list will grow], cannot do 23, 30 June, 7, 21 July, 11, 18, 25 Aug, 8, 15, 22 Sep...) so I was waiting for any suggested dates to show up before declaring my interest.
