English and Olympic skeet shooting is an action packed discipline that requires both skill and patience. Here at Doveridge, we have six amazing skeet layouts across our grounds that have played host to world and national championships in the past. Each course is impeccably maintained and vary in difficulty. The Bramley family have a real passion for clay shooting and skeet in particular having competed  for and won medals at the Olympics as well as a host of national competitions.

Why Choose Doveridge for Clay Shooting in the Midlands?

Our facilities are truly unrivalled not only in the Midlands, but in the UK. The most recent CPSA World Skeet Championship was held at Doveridge and we pride ourselves on the conditions of our courses. Skeet shooting originated in the USA but the rules were adapted to create an English version. Using a double barrelled shotgun, shooters are required to hit 25 targets in a mixture of singles and pairs with only one shot allowed each round. The targets vary in speed and trajectory making concentration key for success. A simple scoring system makes this a very competitive form of clay pigeon shooting and a great one to play in groups of five to six. Gun racks and seating is also available on most of the layouts.
