Brilliant day out; took the kids, all had an exceptional experience and are desperate to go back. Phil and the team couldn’t be more accommodating. Great shoot, great food. Safety standards and tuition are faultless…..

Hi Phil,
My family offers our thanks to you and the team at Headley Clay Pigeon, and our instructor Alan Bush, for a thoroughly enjoyable day.
You had assured me that you could make our visit work well for our elderly father, for whom this was a birthday treat. This proved undoubtedly to be true; he was thrilled. We were impressed by your attentiveness, that you greeted us in person, ensured we knew what would happen, and checked that all was going well.
Our experience was that everybody was very hospitable, the food was good, and the tuition was first class. Alan is clearly a very experienced and patient instructor, and everyone in our party left with a sense of achievement. We can understand why this is such a popular club.
Amazing day out. Flawless hospitality, a big thanks to both the trainers and Phil.
Hi Phil
Great shoot today – loved it and nice to see my brother in law is back in the fold.
Good to see you – and how do you get that chicken so succulent?
Regards
Roland
Hello, Phil
I just wanted to give you and your team a huge thank you for helping us have a great post-Christmas Party on Saturday. We all have a really good time.
A special thanks to David, Oli and the other instructors who gave us personal instructions and helped grow our confidence in a unique sport.
The food was simple and delicious, no frills, just good food.
Your customer service from the moment I initially called, the warm welcome when we arrived and right up to the courtesy drinks at the local pub, was brilliant.
As the organiser of a company party, I was relieved to know that I could sit back and enjoy the party with everyone else. Many, many thanks!
Kind Regards,
Candice Alford

You guys rock! Just amazing from start to finish. Thanks to Phil for making us ‘group of 9’ so welcome and to his Dad for cooking a mean bit of chicken! The final words go to our instructor Alan Bushe… you are an absolute legend!
Had one of the greatest afternoons yesterday.I did the EBT & English Sporting pack. Had a great tutor (Rick Laurence). Really nice site well organised, very friendly and welcoming. Excellent bbq . I will for sure go back , not just because i need the practice.. it’s because all of it… atmosphere , environment, friendship, very good shooting site etc.
Mr. Rick Laurence I’m afraid that but you have to deal with me again
Thanks Phil, Rick & team for making me welcome.
Hi Phil
Thanks for the warm welcome you gave to myself and our party today. The shooting was great with a fantastic lunch. The day was made even better with the warm welcome that you extended to ourselves.
Many thanks
Jason
The best shooting venue bar none. The set-up, the food and the organisation is fantastic but the thing that sets Headley apart from anywhere else is the friendly atmosphere. Phil and the team are a different class and totally amazing people.
Hello
Just a quick note to thank you for a brilliant day, 3 generations of our family came to do the basic training today.
Alan Bush was an excellent instructor and has really inspired our son Finlay to do this again ( We were all shocked as to how well he did- he’s played the attached video I took a lot -his 1st time hit the pigeon! ) and the patch you kindly gave him is apparently going to be sewn on his shotgun bag… (that apparently he’s getting for Christmas – along with a gun once we have license sorted!).
Please could you give me some advise as to what we should do next- practise is key of course but do you courses?
Thank you so very much again, as I type I can see Finlay googling Russian brand shot guns!!!
Kind Regards

Ps food was awesome and all your team were lovely.
A very big thank you to Phil and the whole team for a fabulous day! This proved a great way to celebrate a 60th birthday and we all loved the ambience, friendliness, and hospitality of the Headley crew and members. Phil was very helpful in planning our visit and no one could be disappointed by the welcome received and atmosphere of the club. The tuition was very thorough and the opportunity to try out such a variety of clays and stands contributed to a memorable day all round. I am sure we will return!! Many thanks to you all, Maureen
Yesterday we had a day out with our Dads side of the family and we did something completely different..we went clay pigeon shooting!
It was great fun and in the final competition Sarah did the best out of the three of us hitting 6/10 but the funniest thing was we and mum all did better than Dad!!! What new things did you do this last weekend of the hols? #new
Thank you Phil, for giving us a splendid taste for clay pigeon shooting. We had a really good time and it was a wonderful way to spend such a glorious morning in the woods. Although I know the area well from walking I had no idea that this ‘village’ existed hidden away.
You gave us such a warm welcome and the BBQ was delicious.
So thank you again, we loved it!
Best wishes,
Sandra Dowdell and 16 others!
Dear Phil,
Just a short note to say thank you to you and your fantastic team for a really enjoyable day of clay pigeon shooting.
Your staff were helpful and professional and gave us the time to build our confidence. Excellent experience and will definitely recommend. Not surprised you have won so many awards. Thoroughly deserved.
Best wishes

“I booked a day of clay pigeon shooting at Headley Clay Pigeon for my sister’s hen party and I have to say it was the best experience ever. Phil was absolutely amazing in helping to organise the day and couldn’t have been a more wonderful and welcoming host to 14 novice women.
The setting is absolutely beautiful (in the middle of a forest) and the instructors we were assigned, Dave and Alan, were just brilliant. The lunch, which was cooked by Phil’s lovely father George, was delicious (especially the chicken!] I would definitely recommend this to any other hen party organisers.
It’s such a fabulous idea for a hen party and I know the rest of the girls had an incredible time. It’s such a fun and friendly atmosphere and I know several of us are already planning a return day. A big thank you to Phil and the rest of the team!”
Best wishes

Many thanks to Phil & co!

Another excellent time shooting at Headley 13/05/17 , the Sporting course is always laid out in such a way that it will be challenging to most shooters. The Hospitality thats laid on is always 1st class, I would recommend this site to anyone looking for an exceptional experience…
Ali White
My 1st visit and thoroughly enjoyed it, can’t believe I haven’t been before. There were about 10 of us who went in October (2 of which had been before) so the other 8 and I went and did the essential basic tuition. We loved it!!
Rachel Husband
What an absolute joy to spend the afternoon with Phil & the gang at Headley. Everything about it was spot on – the delicious BBQ lunch, the location, our coach, the facilities. Most of all, the atmosphere is fantastic!
Frederic Demay
One of the best place you can find in Southern England for clay shooting, be trap or Sporting.
Mick C
One of the best shoots I’ve ever been too in fact probably the best!
Edward Gladden
Well run, friendly family owned shooting ground with plenty of stands, sporting and down the line, free BBQ. lunch, on site shop offering lots of shooting accessories. Alternate Saturdays. Well worth a visit.
John Salter
Great friendly shoot. You meet Phil once, and he remembers your name for life – I wish I had that skill. DTL is £13 a round – a bit pricey – but you do get free tea, coffee and BBQ lunch.Every other Saturday.
Dear Phil,
I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and your wonderful team for making my daughter Leo’s
Hen Day such a success.
They really loved their day at Headley and virtually everyone came away feeling a great sense of
achievement thanks to the two wonderful instructors. Even the less successful still had fun.
We all enjoyed lunch, especially the delicious chicken, thanks to your Dad I believe.
Even the weather didn’t spoil things – we felt that we were in a tropical jungle, rather than a wood in Surrey!
Some loved the experience so much i have a feeling they will be back!
The quad bike experience made the perfect way to end for both Leo and Natalia.
All good wishes to you and your team.

I would like to congratulate the team at Headley for building such a welcoming environment. It clearly shows as there is a great amount people here without it being overloaded. I was taken back by how friendly the guys who ran the place were. Treat the place, people and rules with respect and the same is shown back.
We met Phil and the guys who ran the shoot and were very impressed. Special thanks to Mike who went through the training with us, great advice and support. We will definitely be returning and are very much looking forward to meeting you all again.
If you’re thinking of coming here, it’s well worth the trip.
Just reading the other reviews and have to say we can not fault the praise!
Well done to all at Headley Clay Pigeon!
I booked the “Team Pack” session at Headley Clay Pigeon for a stag do and we had a fantastic time! Great value for money given the session comes in at around 4 hours including safety briefing, practice session and a competition shoot from multiple traps. We got through around 300 rounds between 8 of us which is more than enough to get your fill of shooting for the day! They throw in their legendary Cypriot BBQ lunch too. Phil was a great help in organizing and our tutor, Lee, was a great sport and brought the whole thing to life. A Great day out and the stag absolutely loved it, most importantly!
I was given a day’s shooting at Headley Clay Pigeon as a gift and, having never shot before, was not sure what to expect. Any apprehension was quickly dispelled by Phil and his colleagues who made my wife and I feel like long-lost friends. After receiving comprehensive tuition in gun handling and safety we had one-to-one practical guidance in clay shooting. This was followed by an excellent Greek barbecue lunch and then the opportunity to shoot competitively with a session of “Down the Line”. A first-class experience in a very friendly atmosphere where it was fun to learn a new ‘skill’. Well done to all the team – we shall be back!
After some time thinking about it my wife and I finally took the plunge & as complete beginners, turned up at Headley. We could not have had a warmer welcome. It was great fun and highly addictive with the added bonus of the delicious barbeque. Our thanks to Phil, his team and the rest of his family. I have been back already and look forward to further visits.
Had a great day’s shooting today. I did the EBT & English Sporting pack. Had a great tutor (Lee) Really nice site well organised, very friendly and welcoming. Excellent bbq! I will defantly go back I need the practice and would like to become a full time member.
Thanks Phil, lee & team for making me welcome.

I arrived at Headley with my daughter and two teenage granddaughters amongst the crackle of gun shots being shelled and the crowd tucking into a BBQ. We immediately thought ‘what a great atmosphere’. Especially as we were warmly greeted by Phil who told us to join in. After our fill we were assigned an instructor and equipment.
As we were complete novices,it could have been a bit bewildering. But Phil quickly sorted us out and with the excellent instruction via Alan Bush we were on a roll. The rush of adrenaline when you see the clay shatter in the sky is mind boggling. And addictive!
We were so lucky to choose Headley for our first ever shoot. The instruction, atmosphere and friendly welcoming were all brilliant.
Clay shooting is a fantastic day out and a sport for anyone. We can’t wait to go back! Thanks to Phil & team.
Really enjoyed our first ever visit – thanks for making us feel welcome, and for a great shoot. We’ll be back!
Another fantastic days shooting at Headley. You will struggle to find such a friendly and accommodating bunch of people. It’s worth going just for the bbq and the bread pudding.
What an AMAZEBALLS day shooting with Phil and his beautiful family.
Salt of the earth they call peeps like u.
U guys have helped make my birthday one to definitely remember.
Big hugs, this day definitely deserves a rewind.
Thank you… XX
Another great day shooting with my Headley family the place just gets friendlier and friendlier. x
This is my 3rd year as a member at Headley and its my favourite shoot by far, great people, great place, always a warm welcome.
Really lovely club. Phil and everyone were very helpful and the facilities are very good. Tea and Coffee available to all. Loved my visit.
This was a great day out. We came to the Headley Clay Pigeon Shooting Club as part of my husbands Birthday and it was great fun. Great club atmosphere with a family feel. Thank you Phil, George and Effie for looking after us. We’ll be back.
Hi Phil,
What a round!! I reckon that is the trickiest round you’ve ever put on, it was brilliant! There are a lot of shooters who’s averages are going to go down after today, but it was great. I WANT to be tested. Had a ball!!

Can’t thank Phil and his team enough! Had a really great day’s shooting today. Staff are really friendly, lovely BBQ an all round great day out. Will definitely be visiting again 🙂
This really is the best shoot. Thanks to all the team for a great day note to self though, stop shooting to get the BBQ !! Next time eh ??!
BBQ was amazing, the rabbit stew – good god I want the recipe! Never actually felt so welcome in a group before, was brilliant, there was another lefty there that gave me some pointers which helped massively with my body position and aiming, always looking to learn and improve.
Great Stag activity for a large group (14 of us). Phil, Lee and the rest of the team made us all feel welcome. Brilliant instruction, relaxed atmosphere, tasty lunch and above all great competitive challenge for the lads! Fantastic value for money compared to many other activities as this is a full day of laughs!
Had the most amazing time. Was made to feel so at ease and the safety briefing and instructions were spot on..thanks to The team. I’m officially hooked and will be back! Soon!!!
This is a great shoot. The targets Phil and his team produce are brilliant. If he had a larger area to work with he’d give Bisley a run for their money! A great shoot run by really nice people.
What a great day… I’m hooked and can’t wait to shoot again.
What a great experience, some of the most welcoming people you’re ever likely to meet….
A big thank you to Phil and his team.
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Phil and the team. It was our first visit on Saturday and everyone was so friendly and the shoot is so well set up. We had reservations when we first turned up because it looked so busy but we never had to wait long.
Only down side to the whole day was I missed the food!
Fantasic day at Headley Clay Pigeon Shooting Club, great atmosphere, lovely family feel, our 10 year old daughter and her friend loved the day, thank you Phil, George and Effie for looking after us all.
Fabulous first visit today: lovely people, excellent layout, amazing food and hospitality. RUBBISH scores (mine of course!).
Thoroughly enjoyed myself and met two great guys who let me shoot with them (Jim and Jim). Can’t wait to get back! Now just have to nag the wife for a Defender 110 and a Headley clay vest!
Good shoot today and well shot Simon! Always good company at Headley and a great mornings shooting. All the best to you Phil and the family.
I’ve been down to Headley three times and everyone is so amazingly friendly and helpful that my 14 year old daughter now want to come with me. Great club with a real friends and family feel.
Fantastic website and the pictures are great.Looks really good here,must remeber to bring my gun next time I’m working in Surrey. Spend a few hours working then maybe a cheeky few hours at your ground {lol!} So long as you dont tell the boss!

Wonderful shoot with my Greek family.
The best shoot in the ‘World’!
Good job, Keep up the good work Phil….
20 very happy customers today. Had a great time on the English Sporting layout. Thanks to Phil, George and all the Guys for putting on such an amazing afternoon’s shoot. Extremely good value for money and thoroughly recommend this club to all clay pigeon shooters from beginners to experts. Great family atmosphere that only seems to get better each week. Back in two weeks time!
The only problem with my rabbit stew is that the bread likes the sauce too much…
