Shalden Shooting School offers clay pigeon shooting for individuals and groups, set in a wooded valley near Bampton. We have formats to suit those wanting to try clay shooting for the first time through to experienced shots wishing to hone their skills.
For groups of novice shots we run taster sessions where you learn how to shoot clays presented at a variety of angles. The session ends with a chance for the group to compete against each other.
For experienced shots or those taking up the sport, we run lessons on a one to one or shared basis. Lessons are tailored to suit the pupil, covering how to shoot clays at different angles, working on problem areas and teaching all of the safety aspects.
For teams of experienced shots, we run simulated game days where you can test your skills as part of a team shooting random sequences of clays.
Shooting Monday-Saturday: 10am-5pm
Telephone enquiries: 9am-7pm any day.
