Start of Season Warm-up Shoot – held at Holland & Holland’s pristine shooting ground ( Ducks Hill Rd, Harefield, Northwood HA6 2ST) on Saturday, August 10th. Just two day’s before the Glorious Twelfth!

Situated in lush countryside just 40 minutes from Central London, with Northwood tube station (Metropolitan line) just a 5-minute taxi ride away, this promises to be a thoroughly enjoyable day for all.
Whether you’re a seasoned shooter or fresh to the sport, this day caters to all skill levels. It’s the perfect chance to sharpen your skills, exchange shooting tips, enjoy some good food and foster new friendships within the section and across the club.

This is a superb chance to shoot en masse with fellow section members and is one of the highlights of our section’s calendar. The cost is £150pp which includes all cartridges, use of shotguns and refreshments – this represents fantastic value and I’d urge members to sign up swiftly as we only have 40 spaces.

This event is open to Section members and 2 guests max. For club members who aren’t yet part of the Shooting Section you can simply sign up to the event and the office will be in touch regarding joining the section.

There will also be a friendly competitive element to the day so please specify your shooting ability – beginner, intermediate, pro.

Members may bring their own shotguns and certificates but if these are any calibre other than 12 gauge please inform us ahead of time.
Members may also use their own cartridges but this will not be refunded in the cost.
