How’s my stance? Olympic Champ Suzy Balogh from Hitting Targets was an awesome instructor!

Lovely place, shame about all the power lines!

Celebrated Eddie’s B’Day with Clay Shooting yesterday. Have never shot a gun before (was inevitable, right?!), was mad fun. I loved it!

I got there a little early, and walking around the car park seeing so many guys with guns out just felt so surreal. Seeing guns on picnic tables, guns everywhere! Shooting and hitting targets was actually easier than I thought it would be (I was prepared to not hit a thing!). Recoil wasn’t bad at all (was worse in my mind), though it was funny watching it catch a few people off guard! Ejecting shells is mad! Smells so good too! Highly recommend it for anyone who’s never had a go, we all paid around $100/head and they use competition bullets made in Italy, considering they’re about $1.50/$2/bullet and you get 40 or so shots, that’s great value!

    How did you find clay shooting? Is it as hard as it looks?That’s pretty interesting the gunpowder smells good, hows that compared to exhaust haha?

    Elbow up! ;-) Clay shooting is brilliant fun, but like all the best funs, not cheap. 10/10 would recommend.
