Frequently asked questions

Do I Need to Be a Member to Shoot or Use Your Clubhouse?

No, you do not need to be a member to visit us. Membership is available and it offers a discount on a range of our products and services, however everyone is welcome to join us. For more information, please visit our Membership page.

Do I Need to Bring My Shotgun Licence with Me & Can I Bring Non-Shotgun Licence Holders with Me?

We advise that you bring your licence with you on every visit. Upon signing in for the first time, you may be asked to produce your licence to be checked, and you may be asked to produce it at any point upon signing in at other times.

To purchase cartridges, you MUST be able to produce your valid UK shotgun licence. We will not accept photocopies, and it will be required upon every purchase. Sorry, no exceptions.

You may bring non-shotgun licence holders with you to shoot as we have a section 11(6) exemption. However, you will be taking responsibility for them at all times whilst on our ground.

Do I Need to Book Practice Clays?

You do not need to pre-book practice clays, however, if you would like to shoot a specific area of the ground, please contact us and we will be able to check availability for you. To check our upcoming events, please see our calendar.

What Safety Equipment Do I Need?

All shooters will need to always wear both ear and eye protection whilst in the shooting areas. We also advise that everyone wears hats whilst on the ground.

Spectators are welcome to come with you; they will need to ensure they are also wearing both hearing and eye protection at all times.

Am I Allowed to Use a Semi-auto or Pump-Action Shotgun?

You are allowed to use both of those types of shotguns here at Eriswell Lodge, all we ask is that you follow the below guidelines:

Semi-auto

  • You may only load and fire a maximum of 2 cartridges at any time. No matter how many your gun will load or hold in the magazine, we ask that there is only two in the gun at any time.
  • Please carry the gun either in a slip or pointing up with the breach facing away from you open and flagged.
  • Please check before leaving every stand that the gun is empty – both the breach and the magazine.
  • Please take extra care when removing the gun from the slip to ensure it never points at anyone. Please also ensure the breach is open, so everyone around you knows it is not loaded.

If your Semi-automatic is listed on your Firearm Certificate and does not have the condition listed where it can be used for clay shooting as a part of “Practical Shotgun” shooting, it may not be used at Eriswell Lodge as it is classed as a Firearm and not a Shotgun. Please contact us if you would like further information on this subject.

Pump Action

  • Please make reception aware upon sign in if you intend to use a pump action shotgun.
  • You may only load and fire a maximum of 2 cartridges at any time. No matter how many your gun will load or hold in the magazine, we ask that there is only two in the gun at any time.
  • Please carry the gun either in a slip or pointing up with the breach facing away from you open and flagged.
  • Please check before leaving each stand that the gun is entirely empty.
  • Please take extra care when removing the gun from the slip to ensure it never points at anyone. Please also ensure the breach is open, so everyone around you knows it is not loaded.

Please be aware that the use of ‘garden guns’ is not permitted.

Can I Use My Own Cartridges?

You may bring along your own cartridges to use here, as long as they are no bigger than a 28g 7 shot (no game loads are allowed). We welcome both plastic and fibre wad.

Don’t worry if your cartridges are larger than this as we have a range of Hull, Gamebore, Lyalvale Express, Fiocchi and B&P cartridges available to purchase from reception.

Do You Hire Shotguns?

Shotguns are available to hire, however they must be booked in advance so we can ensure availability. Shotguns are £10 each per hour to hire and you must bring a valid UK shotgun licence with you.

Do You Have Anywhere to Eat or Sit Inside On-Site?

We have an on-site café which serves a range of hot and cold food and drink. It is the perfect place to warm up with a cup of tea between shooting, or to grab an ice cream in the summer months! We also welcome non-shooters to our café.

Please see Our Venue page for more information.
