The FITASC masterclass sold out on the first day but there is a possibility of a second if any woman wants to transfer from Englsih sporting to the hard stuff.

Becky Mackenzie is doing a FITASC masterclass for us at Sporting Targets. Yay! Thanks, all. 

Thank you! ST have apparently done FITASC classes before, so we are looking at that. Got a top FITASC shooter on it.

Not In area but thank you for the response. 

Basic question that Google is not helping with: where are the FITASC grounds in the East of England? I know Barrow Heath used to have competitions. Anywhere else in Beds, Herts, Cambs, Suffolk, Norfolk or Essex? I have seen hoops on floors at grounds but not an actually place where you can shoot...

Slightly nervous new shooter explains that they are here to try this sport their partner loves, was wondering how it's going to go because they are vegetarian, and they aren't sure that not everyone in shooting isn't a bloody thirsty slaughterer of live things. Instructor utterly fails to set...

I wish there was a way to get some come back against awful coaches. My husband had a truly terrible nasty coach at his first lesson in 2012, I posted here about it, but there was nothing anyone could so. If it wasn't for Coach Solomons rescuing the situation my husband would have never kept on...

(1) Don't give up. Change the instructor and have another go. (2) Sent you a PM. 

Coach Becky McKenzie was saying she'd just swapped to the MX2000 because she went to review it, expected to hate it and fell in love with it (Clay Shooter magazine soon?). When top shooters are switching on their own money it has to be something unusually good! But yes, it's personal choice of...

I had squadded coaching with Becky on Saturday and I too was very happy. I'd put Becky up there with some of the top coaches I've learned from. (Please note: Calibre of coach does not correlate to ability of shooter.) Knows not only how to hit stuff and how to tell me that information but also...

Recently, a Northampton friend had a certificate that was waiting "to be signed" by the right person for over a year. Granted, printed, but not signed. It took a letter to the chief constable and then surprise! everything was hand delivered with a personal apology. Staff issues rather than...

Pshaw! Anything that's not real clay is new fangled modern stuff .

Lies, damn lies and statistics. I think you have a lot of 1 gun owners and a lot of 5 gun owners. I swear the things breed in the cabinet. 

Knowledgeable. Kind. Generous with his help. This is sad news. He will be missed by people who never met him in person. And I will think of him every time I see a Beretta Gold E because of his marvellous help in explaining it's value to me. My condolences to those who knew him personally. 

Who the hell cares? I shoot the sxs competition with a £50 gun. Do whatever needs to be done to get it to fit you. Saying a person who needs an adjustable comb shouldn't have one because it wasn't done in 1880 is just the kind of snobbery that keeps people out of the sport.  Not sure about the...

Semi auto shoots. There aren't many. One at Northampton, one at AGL that I am aware of. The one at AGL requires you to be shooting a Beretta, Benelli, Franchi or Stoeger IIRC. That should be taken into consideration.

Hello. Similar height to me. If it's one of the early Browning 525s I can related. The later ones are much nicer.  Being shorter of arm and stature I like a gun with light barrels. This is necessary because of my silly short stock, to get a good balance. I have a Perazzi MX8 as my forever gun...

USB hand warmers are the future! Love them, do for six hours. Other than that the disposables work all day. 

Yep. That's his One True Way. Brings in gold medals. But it's not the right way for everyone.

Claudio gets amazing results but is very One True Way by all reports. Next closest to you will probably be Nuthampstead. Lots of good coaches there.
