Hi all

Well got my grubby hands on my certificate, got a browning 425 sporting and went off for my first shoot in many years.

Arrived at Pinewood shooting ground, in Blyton Lincolnshire, very very nervous but I met the owner who immediately introduced me to a group who would show me the ropes.

What a fantastic group of down to earth people that put me at ease immediately and explained every stand, If anyone is nervous about meeting people go to Pinewood. 

Now all I have to do is start hitting more clays, sure that will come with practice, maybe another 10000 may do it

Many thank to Pinewood see you next week

Graham

Last time I was up your way visiting my cousin we went to Humberside shooting ground and I thought it was excellent.

good variety of targets and very reasonably priced. 

He's based in Barrow now, but I've been for many a good pint in Brigg, especially at the yardborough hunt.
