North Newton Clay Pigeon Club was officially formed on the 11th August 1988, and moved to its current location at Hedging in May 2021. We are a small friendly club which meets every Wednesday evening from 5.00pm onwards from the around the first Wednesday in April to around the last Wednesday in September.
We have a variety of traps and stands and the shooting area includes a rough bank and several mature trees enabling us to shoot a varied and interesting layout.
On a shoot day, as many people as are able arrive in the afternoon to
set up the traps and stands so that we are able to shoot. Depending on
availability of members this may mean the the course may not be
available until later some time after 5pm..
When shooting finishes for the day (last card 6:30pm) it is appreciated
if people who are able to do so could stay and help to tidy away the
traps / pick up any unbroken clays etc.
We operate a membership system, please see the membership page for the latest details.
We also hold a section 11(6) exemption certificate from Avon and Somerset Constabulary, which means that non-certificate holders can shoot, provided they are not a prohibited person under Section 21 of the firearms act.
Juniors aged 16 and under shoot for free, if accompanied by a fee-paying member
There is a strict fibre wad only rule.
