Thanks Mike, same applies to you,
I'm well overdue for a south island trip that I've never done.

When it comes to safety around guns, I'm right there with you. For that matter, I get twitchy even with open guns and barrels are pointing at me (or someone). I can't stand it, it annoys the living...

Ehhhh if I'm wrong about something I'm wrong... live and learn...
Tho, talking to people at the club apparently DTL is not very social anyway (in comparison to Skeet), which explains why I didn't...

Why the hell not. Do it!!!!! Lol

Yea its been good I have to admit. Im just cleaning the gun from this morning shooting. Shot few tricky doubles I didnt think I was capable of. Quite pleased...
...

:) haha... its all part of the game...
Come May 2015 we'll see the difference...

so a forum member got in touch with me, took the Saturday afternoon to show me few things and introduce me to skeet which I've never shot before, initially i thought its too hard to hit speeding clay...

Cost and time flexibility was the main motivator for me to keep away from clubs.
That plus the first time I went to a club there wasn't much interaction as to how I should shoot, techniques, faults...

Thanks Madds, something to think about....

just spoke to the guy up there.
$20 for 25 clays (non members)
It drops by half when you become a member

$155 annual membership, $10 per 25 targets.

Any idea what are the costs to shoot at the club?

The first time I went it was $25 for 25 targets (I think!!!)
Not sure how cheaper it is if you become a member.

thanks for the advise. Only doing it to get better for hunting... you end up spending the whole weekend out in the forest for the very rare bird that you come accross and missing them one after...

:) depends who with....


North Shore

Went to a club once up in west/north Auckland... didn't quite enjoy it, not sure why. seemed like too many rules, gun always on the shoulder before you say pull, etc etc...
Might do it against if...

Hi All,

I was hopping to do some practice shooting on clays during the coming summer weekends to get ready (ready-er) for the next gamebird season, thought I'd ask if anyone does regular clay...
