Terms & Conditions.

The venue of your choice must be suitable for Clay Pigeon Shooting. That means there must be a clear area for clays and lead shot to fall in front of the shooting positions of at least 275metres, (300 yards). This area must be free of buildings, livestock, footpaths, wires, waterways, ponds or any other sensitive areas. Written authority will be needed to over-shoot land that you do not own. Your ground can be inspected free of charge, (within 20 miles), before booking if you are unsure of its suitability for clay shooting.

Non-certificate holders may shoot at your venue under Section 11(5) of the Firearms Act 1968 if they use a gun belonging to the occupier of the land and the occupier is present.
Section 11(5) of the Firearms Act 1968 allows an individual, without holding a shot gun certificate, to borrow a shot gun from the occupier of private premises and use it on those premises in the occupier's presence

Non-certificate holders may shoot at your venue without the occupier being present, providing the local Police firearms department has granted an exemption under Section 11(6) of the Firearms Act 1968. Your local Firearms Officer will visit the proposed shooting ground to access the suitability of the land for clay shooting. Advice can be given to help you with this procedure if required.
Section 11(6) of the Firearms Act 1968 states: “A person may, without holding a shotgun certificate, use a shotgun at a time and place approved for shooting at artificial targets by the chief officer of police for the area in which that place is situated.”

Anyone who wishes to shoot and does not hold a shotgun certificate will be asked to sign a declaration to say they are not prohibited from handling a firearm under Section 21 of the Firearms Act 1968.
Section 21 of the Firearms Act of 1968 states: Any person who has served a prison sentence or youth custody for a period of more than three months but less than three years is subject to a five year prohibition from having a firearm or ammunition in his possession. A person who has served a prison sentence or youth custody for a period in excess of three years is prohibited for life.

No alcohol will be consumed before or during the shooting event; anyone thought to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol will be prevented from taking part in the event. All shooters will be asked to sign a declaration that they are not under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

The Safety Officer at your event will have full authority over all the shooting; participants and spectators must comply with any requests, orders or instructions given by the Safety Officer.

A non-returnable Booking Fee of £50 will be payable to confirm the Client's booking. Confirmation of the event details and date will be sent to the client in writing on receipt of the booking fee. Cancellation of the event by the Client will result in the loss of the £50 Booking Fee.

The full payment plus any extras used at the event, less the £50 booking fee is payable on the date of the event.

Reasonable care will be taken whilst carrying out the booked event but liability for any loss, injury or damage to clients, guests or their property howsoever caused will not be accepted by the suppliers of your mobile clay shooting event.

By paying the Booking Fee, the Client is deemed to have accepted all terms and conditions as listed above.

Notes.

All shooters and spectators are strongly advised to have their own ear, eye and head protection in case of clay shards, noise and shot fallout. Familiar Personal Protective Equipment is better than borrowed equipment.

Clay shooting takes place in all weathers. All shooters and spectators are strongly advised to have waterproof clothes or coats and footwear.

The packages above and any bespoke layouts will use anything between a minimum of one trap/one safety enclosure and a maximum of 4 traps/3 safety enclosures to provide your clay shooting event.

Signs and notices are placed around the shooting ground for a reason, primarily for the general welfare and safety of everyone. Anyone found to be disregarding any of the signs and notices may be asked to leave the ground.

Any guns supplied for use are legally held and in proof. All guns used to participate in any of the packages must be legally held and in proof.

It is strongly advised that as a matter of routine all certificated shooters should have their own insurance through membership of organisations such as the Clay Pigeon Shooting Association or the British Association for Shooting and Conservation.

For comfort and noise protection, the Have-a-Go packages for Beginners or Novices include low recoil/low noise cartridges. For environmental reasons, any cartridges supplied with all the packages will be fibre/felt wad, either low recoil/low noise or conventional loads.

Have A Go - imagine looking down on a clock face with the hours marked 1 to 12. The shooter will be standing on the 6, shooting towards the 12. A single trap layout will have a trap between the 11 and 1 throwing a target towards the gun. A double trap layout will have the second trap on the 5 or 7 throwing away from the gun.

One to One Supervision - overall supervision from a qualified Safety Officer. This will include personal safety equipment, safe gun handling, clay shooting etiquette and tips on shooting technique.

A Beginner - someone who has no gun, safety equipment or knowledge of shooting.

Compact Sporting layout - imagine looking down on a clock face with the hours marked 1 to 12. The shooter will be standing on the 6, shooting towards the 12. A maximum of four traps can be arranged anywhere around the clock face throwing targets towards the centre of the clock.

A Novice - someone who has a gun, basic safety equipment and limited gun handling and clay shooting knowledge.

Flush - imagine looking down on a clock face with the hours marked 1 to 12. A maximum of four traps can be arranged anywhere around the clock face throwing targets towards the centre of the clock. Each trap is automatically controlled by an electronic box to throw targets at random; the minimum number of targets in a flush is 40, practical maximum is 100. The time between targets is variable, as is the duration of the flush. A team of two experienced guns will comfortably shoot 40 targets in 90 seconds.

An Experienced Gun - someone who has all the necessary equipment, a knowledge of clay shooting disciplines and shows good gun handling skills.

Safe Trap Handling - an explanation of how manual or electric traps work with a practical demonstration and tips on how to use a trap safely, considering the trapper, guns and spectators.
