Clay shooting in Herefordshire

Clay shooting in Herefordshire

Clay shooting is the art of recreating a day of live quarry shooting, with the key difference being that you shoot a variety of clay targets instead of live game. One of the benefits of clay shooting is that it can be practiced throughout the year, whereas traditional shooting is seasonal.

About clay shooting in herefordshire

Many believe that the best clay days offer close to the same exhilaration of game shooting with the unknown sporting element and anticipation being the difference. As with game shoots, simulated shoots vary somewhat with the most expensive ones employing manual trappers which offers greater variance to automated traps but it comes at a price.
