Sherington Shooting Centre

Saturday Open Practice

 

Please note Fibre Wads Only

 

Experienced shots are welcome to the Saturday open practice at  Sherington Shooting Centre. If you have never visited us before, please call for directions. We hold open practice shoots almost every Saturday from 10am - 4pm and disciples are alternated regularly but may include Sportrap, Sporting or Skeet. Ammunition is available and shooting is charged by the round. Some disciples need to be pre booked. Please telephone for details.

 

This is a friendly format and there is always an instructor or a fellow-shooter available to give advice, or just to compliment you on your shooting prowess!

 

Saturday practice can involve one or many of the disciplines we offer, including skeet, sportrap and sporting. It is up to you what you do and how much you shoot. With our naturally-maintained spinney and pond, a large variety of sporting layouts are possible and can include one or two very tricky ones, where all you get is a fleeting glimpse of a small, high bird.

 

The Saturday open practice is suitable only for those shots with some experience. While there are instructors always available to ensure safety, this is not a suitable format for a complete beginner. We would recommend learning the basics of clay shooting and, very importantly, gun safety, through a private lesson, before attending the Saturday practice.

 

You must wear eye and ear protection at all times while on the shooting ground. We can supply safety glasses and ear plugs for a small charge.
