Find out everything you need to know about clay shooting from getting started, to coaching others.
What is clay shooting?
Clay shooting is an extremely popular and fast-growing form of shooting as it is easy and relatively cheap to get started.
Most clay shooting is done at shooting grounds where there will be a series of traps which catapult clay targets into the air.
Clay pigeon shooting is open to everyone, whether you live in a town, city or in the countryside or have a limited amount of time to devote to their sport.
It is suitable for all levels of ability, from complete novices through to those who compete both nationally and internationally.
