One Hour Shooting Session

This 60 minute event is suitable for groups of 2+ people of all ages from 10 years and over and is especially well suited for corporate groups, birthday parties, stag / hen events and family groups.

The activity initially involves learning to shoot gas powered pistols on traditional paper targets over a 6 metre distance. This is a great way to learn the principles of shooting.

The session then moves on to using gas powered rifles equipped with telescopic sights. Metal 'knockdown' targets are used with the rifles over a longer range (typically 10 - 30 metres).

A speed competition at the end of the event utilises our purpose made 'duck shoot' -you need to knock down six ducks in the shortest time possible. 

How the Event Works

The event is available all year, seven days a week.

Evenings are also available during the summer months.

• 09.20 Participants arrive at Adventure Sports activity centre wearing suitable outdoor clothing. Tea & coffee will be available as everyone signs in.
• 09.30 The shooting instructor will welcome the group and explain the event format and basic safety principles and the layout of the shooting gallery.
• 09.35 Initial instruction will be given on how to shoot pistols. These are usually shot standing up using traditional open sights on paper targets. Plenty of practice sessions will take place before a scored competition round (typically 10 shots)
