Boxing Day Shoot

“I say old chap, its terribly good fun this clay pigeon shooting malarkey! What what!”

8.30am December 26th, six of us set off to meet up with Mick, who organises these shoots.
None of us knew where todays event was being hosted,
so we just had to follow a small convoy of jeeps, eventually arriving in Vinho.
Bacon butties all around, several cups of steaming coffee, then outside.
Let the fun begin!

Although I hate going first, I didnt do too bad. 9 out of 10, a pretty good start which would go a little downhill from there.

Look at that concentration!

Some right dodgy looking characters were taking part.

But Henrique is a natural born killer!

Did I get it?

where did it go?

A good day was had by all. We meet once a month for clay pigeon shooting. I regularly attend, and now want to get my own shotgun, so my shooting will improve.

These events are open to all, anyone interested in coming along to a future shoot,
drop us an email.

Stumble it!
