An association of skilled shooting instructors offering tuition or advice in all matters for shotgun shooting or tuition. The availability of top quality, consistent, professional instruction is an essential requirement for those learning to shoot or wishing to improve upon their existing skills . The question is where is it possible to find just such expertise, and in doing so ensure that the attentions of the unqualified tutor are avoided? The Guild of Shooting Instructors is an association of instructors dedicated to providing the highest possible standards of instruction, professionalism and service. Every Guild member regardless of their background and previous experience, has to pass a rigorous training and selection procedure before being invited to join the organisation, thereby not only establishing a group of highly skilled and motivated individuals, but also ensuring a uniformity and consistency of instructional methods and advice within that group. Great emphasis is placed on the teaching and understanding of gun safety, etiquette and good behaviour. Each Guild member is among some of Britain's elite Shooting Instructors. They provide the answer to where you can get the very best in shooting tuition Get in touch to find out more & discuss details for your day

There is no other clay trap quite like the Flurry Launcher. Its arm rotates constantly while switched on, so there’s no cocking or reloading between throws. Every pull of the trigger lever sends another clay on its way, up to four clays per second. That means a single trap can throw a proper covey over a chosen end of the line, with a range of over 150 yards, or more with elevation/following wind. It's entirely unique, with a turret-style design allowing you to control speed, elevation and lateral direction. The operator can fire clays up or down at will, and the tripod mount lets them swing and elevate the trap on the fly. That gives almost endless variety in speed, direction and height from one machine, enough to keep ten guns busy at once. Running it is simple. Set the trap on its tripod with a table at the trapper’s right hand, and tear the side off a box of clays. The trapper scoops up three to five clays at a time and keeps feeding the magazine while operating. The box effectively becomes the magazine, so the coveys never stop coming. At just 25kg and powered by a standard 12V car battery, the Flurry Launcher moves easily from drive to drive on a quad bike, an ATV or in the back of a vehicle. Mount it on a cherry picker and you can hide behind trees on a bank and throw clays high over the top. I ran simulated days this way for years: lower the basket, move on, and be ready for the next drive before the guns have picked up their empty cartridges. It’s versatile and powerful, and it needs nothing more than a battery and someone to load the clays. It makes simulated game feel more real than ever, and it's great fun to operate. Just look out for those burning hot barrels! See it in action on YouTube and find out more at flurrylauncher.com. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyyhNF202W8 Ferris Whidborne
