Devon
South West Shooting School is one of the most highly regarded shooting instruction facilities in Devon, combining expert coaching with excellent facilities to deliver a shooting experience that is both genuinely educational and thoroughly enjoyable for participants of all levels. Whether your goal is to develop your game shooting or to address the technical issues that have been holding your clay scores back, the school’s qualified coaches take a thorough and individualised approach that produces tangible results.
The coaching methodology used here is rooted in the analysis of shooting technique rather than simply putting people on a peg and letting them blaze away. Instructors take time to understand how each individual shooter sees and reads targets, identify the technical and visual habits that are helping or hindering their performance, and then deliver clear, practical coaching that addresses those specifics in a way that sticks long after the lesson is over. This evidence-based approach to coaching is particularly valuable for those who have been shooting for a while but have hit a plateau they cannot seem to break through.
For complete beginners, the school offers an excellent introduction to shotgun shooting that covers everything from safe gun handling and the basic mechanics of shooting a moving target to building the confidence and consistency needed to become a functional clay shot. The instructors are particularly skilled at working with those who have never held a gun before, making the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable without compromising on the thoroughness of the safety instruction.
Various formats are available including one-to-one coaching sessions, small group lessons and family shooting experiences. Shotguns, cartridges and all safety equipment are provided on site.
South West Shooting School represents some of the finest clay pigeon coaching available in the South West and is well worth the short drive from Woolacombe for anyone interested in learning or improving their shooting.
