So you’ve stumbled across people in a field shooting at what might as well be frisbees thrown at various angles. And from the outside looking in, you might well wonder, what would make that enjoyable? Well it’s likely a Stag do clay pigeon shooting just outside London for the weekend.

Well let’s break it down, clay pigeon shooting is a sport of skill very similar to golf, in some respects, however far more reactive in terms of the results. Upon successfully connecting your shot with the clay you are rewarded with what can only be assimilated to a firework exploding in the sky, the perfect shot often results in just a cloud of dust hanging in the air. Adding to the visual feedback you have the tactile feel of the gun recoiling as you squeeze the trigger along with the anticipation of whether the clay may break. So all in all a thrilling experience which tends to have people hooked from the off! What a perfect London stag weekends clay pigeon shooting.

Ladies don’t give shooting a try because they are worried it’s a male dominated sport, above all, this isn’t true. More ladies clay pigeon shooting is what we want to achieve.

Clay pigeon shooting is a ladies sport, plenty of ladies take up clay pigeon shooting every month. Firstly Amber Hill, for instance, is a great ambassador for ladies shooting. Secondly being an olympic sport, there are many classes and categories. Thirdly and most importantly beginners to the sport are given plenty of opportunity to develop and increase their ability.

Other reasons to get into the sport aside from the sheer enjoyment are the social and health benefits it provides. A day out shooting involves walking in fresh air. Time out in the countryside away from the hustle a bustle of the towns and cities. It gives you a sense of freedom and a chance to switch off from the pressure of life and work. Being such a small friendly community novices are sure to meet up with likeminded people and form ongoing friendships.

There are even dedicated ladies shooting groups and events planned by organisations such as ‘The Shotgun & Chelsea Bun Club‘ & ‘the ladies shooting club‘. At Clay Target Events we hold regular ladies shooting events catering for complete beginners through to experienced shots. Therefore anyone can take part.

In my opinion the best way to give it a try is with one of our have a go sessions. Perfect for a group of friends or a family looking to challenge themselves and try something new.

We look forward to welcoming you to the sport.
