Dan_Mercian 27 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Theres a couple thaT I know of, Theres cockett farm where I shoot, very cheap and friendly place thats in farnsfield about 10 mile away. Then theres Stile Hollow which ive heard is a nice place to shoot, although ive never been, thats about 5 mile from Clumber park (just rough distances on routeplanners) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nbunney 5 Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Looks like Cockett Farm then. Do you guys shoot mid week? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Mercian 27 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I have done, but its mainly weekends now, midweeks nice a quiet so you get to stretch your legs and try a few disciplines without having to wait too long! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
s horsfield 7 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 hi mate i was told at work the other day that the hollow was shut, but i'll find out for you and let you know. There are acouple of lads that do clays also at work i'll ask where they go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pegleg33 134 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 stile hollow tuesday nights has a cracking sporting layout and offers all other disciplines.cocketts farm in my opinion is ok but only ok.it only has 1 dtl layout, 1 skeet layout and a sporting layout which if my memory is right i think it's called white gold?. if i was you i'd go further down the road to notts and district gun club on the way to nottingham they have quite a few layouts of skeet, dtl, sporting and fitasc. out of the three i'd do the sporting at stile hollow in ollerton which is closest to you at clumber or skeet and dtl at notts and district gun club which is the furthest at probably 25 mins away but well worth the visit Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nbunney 5 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Thanks for all the replys. Travelling is no problem, as I will be visiting friends in Nottingham, as I lived there when I was a kid. If you would be so kind to give addresses / contact numbers / web site links for the grounds that would be great. And if any of you are available mid week let me know and will see if we can arrange a meet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
