Something different?

RFdemon · **Posted:** Fri Sep 09, 2011 7:45 pm

I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in spending a day clay shooting?

I used to organise clay shooting days out for people who hadn't had a go before a few years ago when I used to do a lot of clay busting myself. I can't remember anyone coming away not having thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

What we used to do was make some noise for a couple of hours, have a BBQ and a few drinks afterwards which was great.

I've no idea what the cost would be but my guess is that the more that wanted to go the cheaper it would be. I have made contact with a clay shooting club in the Cotswolds asking for information but the first thing they are going to ask is "How many".

If you would be interested would you please put your name down below. If you have had a go before please also make a note of that in your response.

I thang yow!

You used to shoot real clays and sell 'em???

When I used to shoot 'em there was nothing left to sell.

if it's a weekend count us in, if we're not away

Might be depending on cost and date etc. Sounds like fun. Although the last time I tried this I came away bruised. :lol:

There's a story to be told here..... I'll wait until after the event though. :shock:

If you had a bruise you were holding the thing incorrectly. Simple to put right though.

I used to shoot around 150 clays in a weekend and never suffered. :geek:

Excellent!

As for the date....

Could those who usually work weekends post up availability dates and I'll try and organise it around you.

I think we are all busy until the end of the month so if you could note dates in October that would be great.

There's going to be a chilli pot for after the shoot and thanks to my negotiating skills, maybe a lettuce sarnie for the vegetarians amongst us. :lol:

Cost will be an extra fiver.
