🟠 BEBSIDE SPORTING CLAYS — ANOTHER CRACKING DAY! 🟠

What a day at Bebside! 😎 The weather was absolutely fantastic for this time of year, the targets were flying, and there was plenty of the usual questionable shooting and even more questionable excuses. 😂

We had a steady 39 entries for the Sporting, which is a great turnout. Then came the All Round… and trying to get you lot to shoot anything other than Sporting is like pulling teeth. 🦷😂

We eventually managed 17 All Round entries, although only 15 of those were members. Come on lads, broaden your horizons — the targets aren’t going to bite you… although some of the scores might. 🤣

🏆 THE ALL ROUND

For those brave enough to have a go, the All Round consisted of:

🎯 25 DTL — Single Barrel
🎯 25 ABT
🎯 50 Sporting

And taking the bragging rights for the day with a fantastic 86/100 was Stuart Dawson 🏆👏

Stu’s heed and gob are already big enough, so we’re fairly confident we’ll be hearing about this result for the foreseeable future. 😂

Congratulations Stu — enjoy your moment. We’ll all be hoping for a catastrophic return to form next time. 😘

🎯 SPORTING

Another varied and entertaining selection of targets today, with plenty to keep everyone guessing.

The simo pair on the 3rd stand seemed to be particularly popular… although whether that was because you enjoyed shooting it or because it was the first pair you actually hit is open to debate. 😂

Ian Mullarkey took the Sporting honours with a superb 44/50. 👏🎯

💰 SPORTRAP POT UPDATE!

Then onto the Sportrap, where David Blackburn posted the best score of the day with 22/25.

Which means… YES, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!

💰 ANOTHER £5 GOES INTO THE PRIZE POT! 💰

That takes the pot to a rather tasty £265!

And remember, there’s a life-changing amount of money waiting for whoever can finally pull off that elusive 25/25.

At this rate, we’ll all be retired before someone manages it. 😂



A massive THANK YOU to everyone who came along and supported us today. It really is appreciated.

And as always, a huge thank you to all our volunteers. ❤️

The shoot simply couldn’t run without you, and we genuinely appreciate the time and effort you put in to make these days happen.

Thanks everyone — another cracking day at Bebside Sporting Clays.

Great targets. Greater memories.
And, judging by some of the scores… greater excuses. 😂🎯

See you all next time! 🟠💥

🎯 BEBside Sporting Clays – ALL ROUND TOMORROW! 🎯

Tomorrow we’re at Bebside Sporting Clays for the Club All Round Competition — and it’s looking like a good one! 💥

The All Round consists of:

🔫 25 DTL Single Barrel
🔫 25 ABT
🎯 50 Sporting

We’ve already got 2 full squads and plenty of room on the 3rd squad. If we get enough interest, we’ll even start a 4th squad — so there’s absolutely no excuse! 😜

And yes… you can sign up on the day.
No booking weeks in advance, no fancy excuses, no blaming the dog — just turn up and shoot! 😂

🏆 There are no prizes on the day, BUT these scores count towards your yearly average and, more importantly, towards the overall club winners at the end of the year.

So if you’ve been quietly thinking “I might have a go at the All Round this year”… tomorrow is your chance. And if it goes badly, remember: it’s only the score that counts towards your average, not the amount of abuse you receive in the clubhouse afterwards. 🤣

Not shooting the All Round?

No problem!

We’ve still got:

🎯 50 Sporting Practice
🎯 25 Sportrap

And don’t forget… there’s £260 CASH up for grabs for anyone who manages a perfect 25/25! 💷💷💷

Whether you’re chasing glory, chasing the £260, chasing your average, or just chasing a few clays around the sky with questionable levels of success — there’s something for everyone! 😂

📍 The map below shows the rough target layouts and flight paths so you can have a look before you arrive. Whether studying it helps you tomorrow is entirely up to you… although we fully expect some people to spend 20 minutes analysing the arrows and then miss the first pair anyway. 😂

⏰ Shooting starts: 10:00am
🚪 Gates open: 08:30am

Any members who are willing to lend a hand setting up, please get there for 08:30. Many hands make light work… and fewer hands mean the same three people doing everything while everyone else magically disappears when there’s work to be done! 😂

See you all tomorrow! 👊

Bebside Sporting Clays
🎯 Good shooting • Good company • Plenty of banter

Get yourselves down, get signed up and let’s see who’s got the bragging rights! 🏆🔥

🎯 B E B S I D E S P O R T I N G C L A Y S 🎯

🚨 RIGHT, YOU LOT… THIS IS YOUR CHANCE! 🚨

This Sunday 20th September we’re holding the Club All Round Competition.

For anyone who thinks they’re handy with a gun, this is your opportunity to put your money where your mouth is… or at least put your cartridges where the targets are! 😂

The All Round consists of:

🔴 25 DTL Single Barrel
🔵 25 ABT
🟢 50 Sporting

That’s 100 targets covering three disciplines. Plenty of opportunity to show everyone how good you are… and equally plenty of opportunity to come up with some absolutely cracking excuses! 🤣

At the moment we’ve only got 2 squads entered.

TWO! 😳

Come on, surely there are more than two people at Bebside who fancy proving they’re the best shot in their class?

There are no prizes or trophies for the competition, BUT your score counts towards your yearly average and also towards the High Gun trophies at the end of the year.

And let’s be honest, the most important prize is the one nobody can put in a cabinet…

🏆 BRAGGING RIGHTS! 🏆

Imagine being able to spend the rest of the year telling everyone down the club that you’re the best All Round shot in your class.

Whether they want to hear about it or not. 😂

And if you’re not brave enough for the All Round, don’t worry — we won’t judge you… much. 😜

We’ve also got:

🎯 50 Sporting Practice
🎯 25 Sportrap

And don’t forget the £260 jackpot for a perfect 25/25 on the Sportrap! 💰💰💰

Yes, £260 for hitting 25 targets.

Sounds easy when you say it quickly, doesn’t it? 😂

⏰ Shooting starts at 10:00am

So come on, GET YOUR NAMES DOWN FOR THE ALL ROUND!

Don’t sit at home Sunday morning wondering what might have happened if you’d entered.

Get yourself down, have a crack, shoot some targets and give everyone else something to talk about afterwards!

And remember…

If you shoot badly, it was the gun.
If you shoot really badly, it was the cartridges.
If you shoot well, obviously it was pure skill. 😎😂

🎯 BEBSIDE SPORTING CLAYS – TODAY’S SHOOT 🎯

Well… 38 shooters turned up today, which isn’t exactly what you’d call a stampede! 😂

We’re hoping the slightly disappointing turnout had something to do with the biblical rain between 10am and 12pm. 🌧️☔ Honestly, Noah would have been looking for the boat.

If you decided to stay at home, you missed out because today’s targets were fantastic, entertaining and a proper variety. There was something to frustrate absolutely everyone — which, as you know, is how we like it! 😜

A quick explanation for those who noticed Bob was a little late getting the entries taken. We were struggling to get the shoot running on time this morning. We had just THREE volunteers turn up to help with the setup, and when you throw in a couple of blown fuses, remotes deciding they’d rather not participate and the usual little gremlins, it creates a knock-on effect.

I ask for volunteers every week, but unfortunately it’s always the same few faces doing the graft. So, a massive thank you to those who did turn up and get stuck in. 👍

For everyone else… you know where we are. 😏
The targets don’t set themselves, you know!

🔥 SPORTRAP 🔥

The Sportrap was another belter, with targets that certainly gave the better shooters something to think about.

The simo pair of the battue and looper on Peg 3 was an absolute standout — a cracking pair and easily one of the highlights of the day.

And now, as promised, a special mention for Ray WRay Wintripy was understandably a little disheartened after shooting 2/8 on Stand 4 — yes Ray, THAT stand… the allegedly easy one! 😂

But what happened next deserves some serious credit.

Ray absolutely smashed it on the Sportrap, hitting every single simo pair. He only dropped two teals and a battue to finish on 22/25.

That was the highest score of the day, equalled by StuarStuart Dawson
Stu’s 22, however, perhaps wasn’t quite as aesthetically pleasing as Ray’s… Stu appeared to adopt the “spray enough pellets in the general direction and eventually some of them will hit” technique. 😂

Still, a 22 is a 22 — we’re not checking pellet trajectories! 😉

Unfortunately, there was no 25/25, so the prize pot rolls over and we’ll add another £5 to it.

💰 NEXT SHOOT: £260 TO SHOOT FOR! 💰

So get yourselves down to Bebside, bring your cartridges, bring your waterproofs, and preferably bring your shooting ability as well.

And if you’ve got a spare morning, come and volunteer. We genuinely need the help, and it would be nice to see some new faces doing the graft rather than the same poor sods every week! 😂

Thanks again to everyone who came along, especially those who helped set up.

See you at the next one! 🎯

🌿🔫 WHEN YOU ASK FOR A LITTLE PRUNING… 😂

All I did was ask our Head Groundsman, Ray Wintrip, to “prune a couple of branches” off a bush so I could throw a decent crosser…

Well… Ray heard “obliterate all shrubbery within a 40ft radius.” 🤣

Safe to say, I’ve now got rather more space than I was expecting! 🌳💥

So, let’s see what I can do with my brand-new throwing ground this Sunday… 👀

💷 And there’s a £255 CASH PRIZE for anyone brave/skilled/lucky enough to shoot a perfect 25/25! 💰

Come along, have a shoot, and see whether Ray’s enthusiastic landscaping has actually improved the targets… or just given me more ways to embarrass myself! 😂

🚨 THE MADNESS IS OVER… FOR NOW! 🚨

There’ll be a completely fresh set of targets waiting for you, with something to entertain everyone from C Class right through to A Class.

🎯 50 Sporting
🎯 25 Sportrap

The 50 Sporting will be shot over 6 stands, with plenty of variety to keep you on your toes. There’ll be some straightforward ones, some tricky ones, and probably at least one that you’ll swear was impossible after missing it three times! 😂

👉 £9 Members
👉 £12 Non-Members

For those wanting a proper challenge, we’ve also got our 25 Sportrap! 🔥

💷 25 Sportrap
