Test Valley Clay Pigeon Club

We are a small friendly clay shoot in North Hampshire, situated just off the A303 near to Popham Airfield. We run shoots every other Sunday, open to all

We are a small friendly club based in North Hampshire, we are open every second Sunday. The club was founded and has been run for the last 30 years by David and Sue Blackman of Test Valley Guns in Overton Hampshire. We are open to members and visitors alike. We also welcome spectators and children under parental supervision, it's also a great place to bring a young dog to get them used to guns; al

l dogs however must be on leads. Our layout is different every shoot, cunningly devised by David and Andy to offer a fair challenge. We also have a small training stand priced at 20p per bird. We allow any type of gun to be used provided it's a smooth bore shotgun I.e. Modern or Antique any calibre, any type. We also have cartridges for sale on site so no need to worry if you don't have enough or have forgotten yours. 12 or 20 bore and unlike some shoots we allow plastic or fibre. We also have on site a refreshments area run by Ali and Zoe in the comfortable surroundings of the club hut, lit in the winter by a lovely log burner, so a great place to sit and talk about the ones that got away whilst munching on a superb bacon roll washed down with a mug of tea. So if your looking for a different type of layout to the normal open area shoots come and give us a try, the whole layout is in a wood so it's a different challenge to the normal clay grounds, our rabbit has been described as a hare. We are constantly chopping and changing around the stands to offer new layouts, we throughly enjoy getting feedback on new layouts we try. We do like to give a challenge, we always try to make it fair but we do like to test the guns. And of course, with David being a Gunsmith he's always around to offer advice. We are passionate about our little club, so if you want to see just why we are, come along and pay us a visit, once you do we hope you have a fabulous time and make many more visits in the future. Your team on site are;
David and Sue Blackman
Andy Lewington-Mawer
And
Ali and Zoe Martin in the canteen. all of us will be pleased to help...so come along and see this little gem in the Hampshire countryside.

The latest member of the Test Valley Team, Miss Ivy Jean Baker made her appearance on the 15th July! She can’t wait to meet everyone 🥰

Due to Unforeseen Circumstances we have had to make the tough decision to cancel this Sunday 12th’s Clay shoot. Baby Baker no.2 is looking like she may be making a slightly earlier arrival than planned. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and look forward to seeing you all on Sunday 26th July for our next shoot.
Please do let any of your friends that may not have access to Facebook know to avoid any disappointment.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
The Test Valley Team xx

Save the Date!
*Hot Weather changes*
Due to intense heatwave temperatures due over the weekend we have made the decision to not serve any hot food, to avoid using the grill which gives off a lot of heat into the clubhouse.
We will still have our range of cold and hot drinks as well as plenty of snacky cold bits on offer to keep everyone going!

We are also offering an 100 bird Sporting from 11.30am onwards.

Thank you everyone for your continued support!

Hi everyone,
Who’s ready for our next shoot tomorrow, Sunday 28th June! Sorry it’s a late one this week folks, I’ve been positively melting! 🥵🥵
Luckily looks like it should be slightly more bearable sunshine tomorrow and lots of shade from our lovely trees.

Exciting first weekend of trialling our 60 Bird Sporting to try and reduce queuing times and create a better flow around the ground.
We would appreciate if everyone could try shooting in an anticlockwise direction while we try this out. Do give us your feedback on how you like it!

We will have our S***t set up this week. Sportrap will be back again in 2 weeks time.
