With this package you will get 25 clays and cartridges under the watchful eye of a professional shooting instructor. including a safety briefing, over various clay pigeon targets.
Over 16’s only please.
If you are an experienced gun then you can participate in a caddied round. A caddy is a host to take you around the ground. They will asses how good a shot you are from the first stand then continue to escort you around the ground to targets that are best suited to your ability. The price of a caddied round includes the caddy and clays but is exclusive of cartridges. These can be purchased on the day with you licence The price per person is from £6.00.- £42.00 depending on the number of clays and which sport Discipline we agree on
Caddied shooting rounds are for those guns experienced in the safe management of a shotgun and etiquette of the shooting ground.
