Woods clearing

Clearing of the rhododendron is coming along. Great progress has been made this week.
The 1st two bosses have been put in place and hopefully we will be shooting in the wood very soon
thanks go out to all who have helped with the work so far but for those who have seen the wood will know there is still a lot of work to do.
If work continues at the same rate we may have a complete course by Christmas.

New Shoot Ground

After many months of hard work from members of the club, dealing with phone calls, emails, letters and driving around at their own expense, the club has found a new shoot ground. The committee members have been hard at work over the last week clearing some parts of the new ground to make it possible to start putting bosses out soon. This will then make it very easy for all the club to move to the new ground and start shooting.
Hopefully we will be moving within the next 2 weeks.
The work will by no means be completed in that short time scale and will take many more months to clear a complete course through the area.
We are initially aiming to lay an 18 shot course, that we can use, with the intention of expanding as time and funds allow.
At the moment we are not revealing the location as some talks are taking place while the initial work is being done but once we are ready to start using the new location directions will be given to everyone.
If you are keen to help out with the hard work ahead please inform Paul Davis or Karen Critchley and i am sure they will let you know what dates work is being carried out.


The Blue Area is our practice zone.
The Green Area will be for administration.
The Red Area will be the main shoot area.

The practice area is almost cleared ready for 4 bosses to be placed.
The administration area needs no initial work from us at all.
The main shoot area will need the most work and will take a while to complete and will also evolve with time.

Regards Paul
