We arrived at Catton Hall Shooting Ground about 10.30 and after a brew in the clubhouse Phil & Seb were eager to get going.
There are 14 stands of which some are 3 pairs and others 4 pairs.
Seb got of to a flying start with the new gun, it has made such a difference to him (but I think starting with a 20 bore has helped a lot)
Phil was very nervous and it showed in his shooting.
We went round with Mr Potter, a very nice chap and met others on the way round. Seb has a new hero, Nicky T! (may have something to do with paintballing!)
Seb had his best round ever with a score of 49, which is great as he has only been clay shooting for 3 months. As he was only 4 behind dad he was really pleased!
Conniston may be the next one on the 10th of April, on the same day there is also a memorial shoot for James Dewhurst who was sadly killed in a car accident along with his cousin Sam Lund. Seb us away with school then and us upset to miss it as it is his home ground.
Call back soon for more!

Clay Pigeon Shooting at Catton Hall
It will be an early start tomorrow when we are off to Catton Hall in Cheshire for the 1st time.
Will be interesting to see how Seb gets on with the new gun on a different ground.
Call back tomorrow for an update!
