Welcome to
the HDCPC website
We would like to encourage newcomers to the sport of clay pigeon
shooting to come along and try out our DTL (Down The Line) and ABT
(Automatic Ball Trap) facilities at our shooting ground.
Experienced shooters are also welcome and many of our competitions are
SCTA registered events. There are also a few 50 target
competitions for the less adventurous!
All shoots including practices are now in STEEL or non-lead shot
only.
Steel Cartridges
Cartridges will be available at the ground from Sandy Gall.
It should be noted that they are from personal stock and will therefore
be available in small numbers for visitors, beginners and other shooters
who don't have shotgun certificates.
Regular steel shooters and local members should buy direct from
suppliers such as R.MacLeod & Son (Tain), Trap & Field Supplies (Lhanbryde)
or other stockist.
Next
Shoot
(5th February 2012)
- 50DTL Willie Elliot Trophy
The next shoot is a 50DTL for the
Willie Elliot Trophy. There will also be
a side trap running. Entries will be taken from 10:00-12:00.
Winter Series 2012
The Winter Series will be the
same format as previous years (best 6 scores from 9 shoots). The prize
fund should still hopefully be £500 if the
DTL Winter Series is well
enough supported. There will also be trophies for High Gun,
Ladies, Juniors, Veterans and Novices for each of the 50DTL shoots and
the overall class winners at the end of the series.
The
ABT Winter Series will
continue on the 26th January 2012 and the best 2 scores from 3 shoots will
count.
