We celebrated a 60th birthday with clay shooting and archery. The team at sporting targets made us all feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Our whole group had an excellent time and some fantastic memories made. Special thanks to John!

First experience at Sporting Targets clay pigeon shooting and archery and as a group of 4 we had so much fun. Big thanks to Vince for today - he was a great instructor and good vibe. Taught us everything we need to know to feel like pros by the end of the day. We'll definitely be back!!

Visited shooting targets 27-05-23 and had a gentleman named bob as our instructor to show us the way! My group was 2 people and was made very comfortable with holding and using the gun. Bob took his time explaining everything and answering any questions we had and made sure we both had a great time in that we did! Would defo be back again and would highly recommend this to others looking to clay shooting!

We had such an amazing time on our clay pigeon shooting lesson at Sporting Targets! I got my husband a voucher for an Xmas present so we were complete beginners and not entirely sure what to expect, but from start-to-finish everything was great! The experience was really made by our instructor Tony who was just brilliant; he was so good at explaining everything and pointing out what you needed to do differently when you missed a shot - I honestly couldn't how many clays we managed to hit! Tony was also so friendly and welcoming, and made the whole experience really enjoyable and fun. We will definitely be back for more lessons with him in the future! Thanks for a great Sunday afternoon :)

Myself and my wife visited Sporting Targets for the first time today. We were both really impressed with the friendly and relaxed atmosphere in the reception and the grounds itself. There were a really good selection of clays and the High Tower was really challenging in the breeze! The Ground-staff were really friendly too, and not only checked with us all the targets were working ok but made sure we knew where we were going so we didn’t miss any stands. Thanks to everyone for a really enjoyable visit.

Such a amazing time! Booked clay pigeon shooting, archery and the air rifles for our afternoon event. Vince was absolutely wonderful, such a good teacher! Very patient and encouraging. It was so much fun, thank you for a great day!

What an amazing day! Bought a voucher for my partners birthday, and surprised him on the day with clay pigeon shooting.
From the get go, it was absolutely amazing, the receptionist was so kind and patient, the eating area was clean and cosy, and free tea and coffee was available while you wait for your lesson.
We were greeted with a smile from
Vince, and all the nerves from my partner disappeared with how calm and kind Vince was.
He would get across the importance of safety and would make my partner so comfortable and was always praised!
I honestly, wish I could give this place more than 5 stars, and Vince his own review. Even before we left the venue, he came to meet us back in the cafe and sat down with us to talk.
Thank you for such an amazing experience and making my partners birthday fantastic!

AMAZING Experience!
We got brought this for Christmas as a Red Letter Day experience. This was our first time visiting Sporting Targets, and right from the start every member of staff we came into contact with was helpful and polite, there was complementry Tea and Coffee and a lovely view while we waited for our instructor to come and get us, we got to experience Archery, Rifle Shooting and Clay Pigeon Shooting a first for some of our group of 4,
Everything was so fun, our Instructor Vince was Fantastic, he was very approachable, polite and very helpful, felt very safe, he showed us what to do answered any questions and watched what we was doing, gave us very clear instructions and adjusted our positions if needed, he gave us tips to help improve our techniques and aiming and once we were able he stood back and let us take the reins still watching and correcting if needed.
On the clay Pigeon shooting he stayed beside us the whole time offering tips and explaining what we did and what to do next time, he was very helpful and really made the experience enjoyable. Overall the grounds were really spacious and looked very safe and secure and everyone we came into contact with were very nice. Would 100% go again and recommend. Thanks Vince.

The staff were very helpful and put themselves out to accommodate us as a group , and saved us money by stretching the size of the group so we could all stay together
The day itself was run very well with good humour and a professional manor to assist in getting the best from everyone enhancing the days experience

I had a taster lesson the beginning of January with Rob, and have had multiple lessons with Rob and John since then, i am now hooked to the point of becoming a member and should have my shotgun certificate in the coming weeks. Sporting targets staff have been really welcoming and made it very easy to get in to the sport, so glad i chose Sporting targets and would recommend them to anyone wishing to learn how to shoot clays.
TCF Excavating Ltd held our Christmas shoot & Dinner at Sporting Targets earlier this week. The whole experience for first calling Angela too arrange the day to the actual day has been 5 star. Nothing has been too much trouble for them to sort for us. Excellent shooting clays, food and service. Thank you to all the staff for a lovely day.

I organised this for my 60th. It was important that I got it right.
Angela, the co-ordinator, was always helpful and accommodating. I was able to organise flower arranging for the non-shooters.
The day went very well and everyone enjoyed themselves. The staff were fantastic and always attentive.
A great day, at a great venue with great staff. Loved it.

I booked an afternoon of clay pigeon shooting and quad biking for my brothers' stag do. Angela assisted me with the booking and was incredibly helpful throughout. I've never done shooting before and had no idea what to expect, but all of the instructors were excellent and we all had a fantastic afternoon. I'd highly recommend it to anyone, and will for sure come again!

I bought a shooting experience for my partner for Christmas last year, via BuyaGift, which we redeemed today (01.10.22). We were a party of 4 and had a go at archery, rifle shooting and clay pigeon shooting. We arrived early and enjoyed a bacon sarnie along with the complimentary hot drinks in the lovely conservatory. Only one of our party had (minimal) shooting experience and the rest of us were complete novices, so we didn’t know what to expect. Our instructor, Rob, was great - calm and articulate with a great sense of humour - he really made the experience a lot of fun. We would absolutely recommend Sporting Target - thank you very much!
