At this time, every year we hold a memorial shoot in honour of a much beloved member of our club who passed away 10 years ago. Derrick was a valued member who regularly competed in our competitions and also helped in a major way to landscape our ranges and keep them looking good. We all […]
Each Sunday, a band of hardy men get together on our range to shoot a 50 bird competition. Hardy men because they shoot, whatever the weather, mainly without cover. Each Sunday, the layout changes to provide new challenges. We have the ability to run the three main types of clay shooting disciplines, viz., Down the […]
