Why we love Clay Pigeon Shooting…and why you’ll love it too

We know we’re slightly biased but there’s a lot to love about clay shooting, and aside from the obvious benefits there’s a whole host of other advantages too. So, if the sheer excitement of smashing clays isn’t enough to convince you to try clay pigeon shooting here’s a look at some of the other benefits of clay pigeon shooting.

1. It’s a great way to meet new people

Clay pigeon shooters are famously friendly, which means taking on the clays is a great way to meet new people. It doesn’t make a difference if you’re completely new to clay shooting or a seasoned pro, you’ll receive exactly the same warm welcome regardless of your ability. As far as clay shooters are concerned, the more people that are trying the sport they love the better!

2. It’s a great stress buster

No amount of essential oils and incense can match the stress-busting ability of smashing your way through some clays, so if you’re feeling a little pent up there’s no better way to let it all go. Even if you miss every shot we guarantee you’ll feel completely stress free after a spot of clay pigeon shooting. Who’d have thought getting your hands on a shotgun could be so therapeutic?

3. Clay pigeon shooting improves your reactions

Mastering clay shooting requires razor sharp reactions, so the more time you spend taking on the clays the better your reactions will be. As we get older our reactions naturally worsen, but by giving them a regular test they should stay as sharp as ever – and trust us nothing tests your reaction speed quite like trying to blow clay pigeons to smithereens! Clay pigeon shooting is just as good for your brain as it is for your body.

4. It gives you an excuse to explore the countryside

Clay shooting grounds are hidden amongst some of the UK’s most spectacular countryside, giving you the perfect excuse to take in some of the country’s most breathtaking scenery. Every venue makes the most of their surroundings too, so you can expect to find shooting layouts that incorporate lots of rugged and rural countryside. What other sport gives you the chance to enjoy views like this.

5. It gives you the chance to unleash your competitive streak

Whether you’re competing against yourself, a friend or even a seasoned shooter clay pigeon shooting gives you the perfect opportunity to indulge your competitive side. To add a bit of friendly competition to proceedings all you need to do is collect a score sheet or scrap of paper at the start of your session, and then mark your shots as you make your way round the shooting stands. At the end of your shoot you can either compare your scores to your personal best, or swap with another shooter and see who came out on top.
