Karlos said:There is a good clay ground in Frodsham where you could go and try it out. Always go for an assisted lesson for your first time and find out which bore (12 or 410 gauge) suits you better, they'll also check eye dominance and get your stance right, but above all make sure you have a fun and safe session. I shoot at Worsley in Manchester and that is a fantastic set up with great beginners stands.
Best starter gun is dependant upon your strength really, some ladies can handle a 12g others prefer the 410. Gun fit is much more important than the cost of the gun, a £300 gun that fits really is better than a £30,000 Purdey that doesn't. A better quality second hand gun is a better buy than a cheepo new one if you decide to sell it later on. Try as many as you can before you buy one and go to a good shop that will check the all important fit for you.
My biggest piece of advice is try it you'll love it, but get ready to be hooked on it, it really is addictive. Let me know if you need any help at all and if you come to Manchester let me know we can have a coffee after your session. xxx
Thanks for the reply. Ive been twice now to the frodsham site. But ive no idea how to get started, like will having suffered from depression stop me getting a shotgun lisence, and what to really look for in a gun etc lol.
I did realy enjoy it, i thinki got 20/25 first time and 22/30 second time.
I'd be more than happy to pop over to manchester to pick up some tips
