The centre has 12 electric traps firing a variety of different clays such as Down The Line, Crossing Pairs, Driven and Teal, all designed to simulate real game. This gives you the chance to practise tracking and hitting a range of mock fowl and also ground-based targets such as rabbits. There is also a choice between a 12- or 20-bore shotgun to suit men, women and children as young as 12.
Throughout the day you'll be accompanied and supported by a clay pigeon shooting instructor, who'll take you through your initial firearm training and give you tips on how to maximise your enjoyment of this traditional outdoor sporting pastime. The course lasts approximately one hour, including tuition, but with the variety of alternative activities available at the centre, you can easily fill a day with adrenaline-filled fun.
