Have A Go
Come and try the exciting sport of clay shooting in Takeley (near Bishops Stortford) Essex.
If you have never shot before then this is the package and facility for you. We provide everything you need – instructor, shotguns, cartridges, clays, all safety equipment, insurance and that all important fun factor!
If you feel in need of moral support spectators are very welcome too.
On The Day
Upon arrival and check-in, you will be met with a warm greeting by one of our instructors, all of which are very experienced in clay pigeon shooting and handling shotguns.
Our instructors are very friendly and their main aim is to ensure you feel safe, have fun and most importantly smash clays!
They will equip you with an appropriate gun, this might be a 12 gauge or a 20 gauge shotgun.
We can provide 28 and 410 gauge shotguns for children or smaller builds.
20 gauge shotguns are perfect for novice ladies and young shots as they are much lighter guns and also produce far less recoil when coupled with our specially loaded cartridges.

Throughout The Experience
Throughout the session, you will be looked after and coached by our professional and experienced instructor who will show you how to shoot clays safely and accurately, while taking them through the finer points of the sport.
All our package prices include a personal instructor, all the clays, cartridges and specialist equipment (unless you already own this), as well as the head, ear and eye protection.
All we ask is that you wear comfortable clothing and footwear appropriate for a country walk.
