"Loved it"

"First time I have ever held a gun and I was shown exactly what to do and how to safely hold it. I went with my son. We both really enjoyed it and will definitely come again. "

"I booked this experience for my husband's birthday, who had always wanted to do clay pigeon shooting and this didn't disappoint. From the moment we arrived staff were tentative and waiting for our arrival. My husbands instructor Justin was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. We had our two young children with us and Justin included them where he could and answered all of there questions. We all had a fantastic morning and will be returning very soon, I'm sure."

"Had a great time, the instructor Peter is a really nice guy and good at what he does. Would recommend going there to anyone I know that like shooting and will definitely be back."

"Bought this for my husband as a gift he and my son had a great time and enjojed the experience "

"A surprisingly fun and exciting afternoon. The helpful instructors made it a non-intimidating and thrilling experience! We were late so we didn't catch our instructors names but we were warmly welcomed into the facility on the day. Our instructor helping with the gun and shooting was incredibly respectful, kind, enthusiatic and patient. He was probably more excited than the patrons when we hit a shell and for another individual in the group, he was immensely helpful with holding the gun and aiming, this person wouldn't have got any shots without him. He should be commended on his dedication and passion to his job, he was trying so hard to help everyone get as many shots as they could and it's always refreshing coming across a staff member that is so truly passionate about their job. Thank you for a fantastic afternoon! "

"Instructor was great, very knowledgeable and helpful! Would definitely recommend "

"My wife and I had never fired a shotgun, and being the wrong side of 70 it was on our bucket list of thing to do. We were both very nervous, but our gun expert, Andy, put us at ease and our trepidation was forgotten. We had an amazing time.! We will be recommending 'The Big Shoot' to our family and friends. "

"Very friendly, knowledgeable instructor who put us at ease whilst maintaining strict health and safety protocols. It was easy to book online and we found the site with no difficulties. It is accessible to a point... if you wish to take part you need to be able to negotiate a small slope or climb approx 8 steps. I can walk small distances but used my wheelchair when on the range. The instructor was very knowledgeable and patient. It was a really great day out and one which we all want to do again soon. We were also blessed with a beautiful crisp February day's weather with no rain at all. Can't wait to go back but I want more shots."

"Amazing session. The coach was first class and made my sons first shooting experiences excellent. "

"We had a wonderful first time shooting session that was scheduled at the very last minute due to changing travel / weather. The scheduling process was easy and we were thankful to be accommodated at the very last minute-- I booked the night before our session! Our instructor was incredibly kind and knowledgeable and gave us a great sense of the variety at the range. We shot at five different targets during our session which kept us on our toes. We were thankful for great care taken in regards to safety and security when handling guns. This was an experience we won't forget and has given us a great desire to do it again! "

"Very enjoyable. Even in the worst weather. Great instructor. Generally a fun time. "

"Brilliant experience from beginning to end, instructor was brilliant at what he does"

"Absolutely brilliant "

"Absolutely brilliant! Far exceeded expectations. My husband, his best mate (the birthday boy) and myself had such a fantastic day. What a thrill. John was absolutely brilliant, a real gentleman, so knowledgeable and personable. Had us all very at ease and having a great time right from the get go. With his expert coaching and guidance we all found ourselves having lots of success and buckets of fun! We all look forward to our next visit. Thank you!"

"We attended the Saturday morning family shooting session as a group of five. As someone who had never handled a firearm before, 1 was understandably nervous at the start. After signing in and completing the medical forms, we made our way down to meet Alan. From the outset, he was welcoming, friendly, and extremely helpful. I have a disability, and despite this, Alan ensured I was tully included, clearly explaining everything and providing guidance that allowed us all to get the most out of the experience. We all thoroughly enjoyed the session and had such a positive experience that we are already looking to book again-hopefully with Alan as our instructor. Having an instructor who is knowledgeable, patient, and engaging truly enhances the experience and allows you to make the most of your time. Once again, thank you, Alan, from all of us."

"I had a very narrow window when I was able to do Clay pigeon shooting and my original venue could not accommodate me, but the team went above and beyond to get me alternate venues close by that could host me. Thank you very much for this. "

"Easy to navigate and book Wrap up warm this time of year, ha! Brilliant experience with a great tutor, John. Thank you 😊 "

"Phil, the instructor was extremely pleasant, helpful and informative. He was excellent in articulating general safety and shooting techniques, and this led to me, as a beginner, hit a large number of targets after not shooting for three years. I'll certainly be using this venue again!"

"Had a brilliant day thanks Tony was great instructor really enjoyed it"

"Brilliant, instructor mike was top class, will be back"
