Practice Shoot at Doddershall 2nd June

Kingswood Gun Club Posted on 4th June 2019 by shooter4th June 2019

A lovely morning’s shooting with some tricky stands. Thank you Brian, Dawn, William and the Team for setting up the Shoot.

There were some issues and complexities in setting up the shoot. One field was out of action because of the long grass. On the second field, we also had the power people handing off the pylons and also driving up and down the road. The shoot had to be stopped on a couple of occasions to allow vehicles to drive up the road.

The work on the power cables is to allow two new towers to be built where the cables cross over the proposed HS2 line. These towers will be taller than the existing towers, raising the height of the power lines over the to be built line.. The work where we are is necessary because the tables need to be taken down and placed on some temporary towers while the new towers are built.

New practice rate shoots

Kingswood Gun Club Posted on 27th May 2019 by shooter27th May 2019

I am writing to inform you that it is necessary for the club to increase the shoot costs as of 1st June as follows for all future practice shoots:

Members:                £10:00
Juniors (under 16):   £5:00
Non members:           £15:00

This has been brought about by a number of factors based on the continual rise in the cost of clays and the fact that we no longer partake in the League shots. Being in the league gave the club 2 benefits in that it raised a sum of money especially when the weather was fine which led to greater numbers attending so boosting monies raised on the day. We have also lost out in that we no longer have the benefit of the pick-ups from these shoots during the year, which has then been reused during practice shoots so keeping the number of clays that have had to be bought down throughout the year.

As you will be well aware the practice shoots have been fixed at £5:00 for many years and while we have been able to offset this in relation to the points above this is no longer viable.

It should be remembered that even with this revised cost the practice shoots still offer exceptional value even at £10:00 for a 50 bird shoot.

Saint Brides Major Shoot

Kingswood Gun Club Posted on 28th April 2019 by shooter2nd May 2019

Following a fantastic sunny shoot in the quarry in Wales today we finally beat the Welsh at their home ground. I can’t remember ever beating them in all the years I have been going down to Wales.

The High gun was Martin Beason from the Nags Head with a 54 and took the bottle of whiskey home.

 The final result was 462 to Kingswood and 453 to the Welsh. 

Thanks to the Kingswood shooters for making the journey and to the shooters from the Nags head who made the numbers up at the last minute who also had the top 5 high scores.

Hopefully we can get a good turnout at the home leg to finally get the trophy that we have never won.

Practice Shoot at Ludgershall 22st April

Kingswood Gun Club Posted on 22nd April 2019 by shooter22nd April 2019

The practice shoot was held at Ludgershall. Excellent weather, warm and sunny and no wind. As usual, a mixture of demanding targets, and some easier stands to build up confidence. Why oh why did this shooter, on a stand where 10 out of 10 was easily attainable and had been by most of the squad still drop one.

Congratulations to Dawn with the highest score of the day. Who needs a special woman’s trophy with her shooting like that.

Our next shoot is Sunday 28th At St Brides Major in Wales, so good luck to all those who make the journey across the bridge. It is time we won our trophy back. We intend to meet up at the Farmers Arms,  CF32 0SE at 10 am and then move onto the shooting ground. If you miss the meetup, the entrance to the quarry where we shoot is located at 51.469455, -3.572402
