I first fired an air rifle at about 8 years of age with dad and we would shoot mums washing line. When we were teenagers we moved on to shotguns - albeit not regular enough for me to be that good - would spend Sunday’s doing a bit of target practice and the summer fishing for mackerel in North Wales off the side of our RIB. Dads encouraged us all from the word go, so it was pretty special for the three of us to be able to share a joint ‘first’ (shooting driven grouse) for the first time together last season. Who encouraged you to get into shooting or fieldsports? What is your earliest memory? . . . #shooting #shotgun #grouseshooting #fieldsports #family #fishing #airrifle #targetpractice #outdoors #hunting #wingshooting #hollandcooper #rayban #schoffel #beretta #berettatribe #berettastyle #grousemoor #grousebutt #gameshooting #gameseason #girlsandguns #girlswhoshoot #ladiesshooting #countryside #tweed

Boom 💥 and the bit 👌🏼confidence has returned. One of the most common questions I get asked is how to pick yourself up when you are struggling with confidence or how to get back into it when you’ve had a bad day/bad shoot - the thing I’ve found works time and time again to get your/ my mojo back is to HAVE FUN. Either get out with your friends, instructor, other halves, whoever you enjoy shooting with and don’t count the hits. Just have a good time and enjoy yourself! Try inventing new ways of taking the targets - shoot the clay, shoot the bit or having someone release the targets when you don’t call pull or taking both targets as a sim pair when they should be on report. If you come across a stand you are struggling with “don’t shoot yourself into a problem” - just walk away and leave it. You can come back if you want to once you’ve shot something a bit easier or leave it completely for another day. You’ll suddenly stop putting pressure on yourself and remember that we all do it because we love it. #shooting #shotgun #clayshooting #claypigeonshooting
