Thread: Lessons - Canterbury

Looking for some professional lessons in Canterbury if anyone can provide some details of good teachers. Google has turned nothing up which I found surprising.

I had a go at sporting clays on the weekend and i've a lot to learn. Prefer to start off on the right foot than muddle through it and develop any bad habbits. I have a Benelli M2 and intend to use it for clays and hunting if that makes any difference.

So i'm after:
- 1 on 1 lessons.
- Proven coaching track record.
- Access to clays for the coaching.
- Help with patterning (I have no idea if the ammo i'm using is patterning well enough).

Oh, and i'd rather start sooner than later! Thanks in advance if anyone can be of any help.

I'll get a fella I know to reply, he might be interested.

Talk to Geoff Foster or Andy Mayberry at Shooters Supplies. They used to run a coaching school with a top class instructor (ex UK and fully qualified). It may still be going.

Go to Waihora gun club and seek out a bloke called Warren Philpott.
He is a ranked sporting clay shooter in Nz.
He is a genuine good bloke and helpful.
Failing that, you supply the clays and ammo and I will help ya out.
I have a couple machines and can throw any target except rabbits.

I've done a session with warren on skeet , was well worth it for me . Real nice guy to deal with too . From memory it didn't brake the bank either

Thanks for the replies - much appreciated!

I seem to have gotten a bit better at DTL since last time. Nothing amazing but was getting 7's and 8's as opposed to 2's and 3's. Skeet is a fucking disaster and lucky if I hit 1 or 2!!

Can anyone PM me some contact details for Warren Philpott?
