Clay Pigeon Shooting Page

Our last shoot was held on Tuesday 28 Dec 04 with all proceeds going towards Temple Street childrens hospital, Larch community in Callan and the Senior Citizens group in Mullinahone.

Over €2000 was raised on the day including donations. Our thanks to the members who helped on the day, especially the youngsters. We also had a visit from celebrity chef Jamie Oliver(Michael Reilly) who served up venison burgers by the dozens. The children present were wolfing them down, until someone informed them they were eating Rudolphs siblings…

Work on the grounds commenced at 8.30am and shooting commenced at 11am. Last tickets were at 3pm to allow for shoot off and clean up. Traps were deemed difficult but shootable,whatever that means. Over 140 cards were sold on the day to the guns who travelled from afar as Wexford, Cork and Waterford. The usual locals from South Tipp also supported the event in their usual numbers. It is very satisfying to see familiar faces at this event every year. Congratulations to prizewinners on the day.

For security reasons this site will not identify gun owners by name.
