Would like to give a big thank you to Norman at AA Shooting after a brilliant morning doing a shooting experience 10/8/19. From start to finish it was all very professional without being boring plus brilliant advise throughout. 
Norman clearly knows his stuff as he quickly did some easy tests to find out what eye was more dominant and then he knew how the gun would best suit us on which side, this clearly worked as I was shooting Clay's in no time, being a beginner I found this very impressive. 
All the equipment is supplied and in like new condition, setup was well thought out so you could have Clay's from all directions and different speeds.
All in all I am very happy with my experience and I will be going again. 
Cheers 
Jason

We went as a birthday present for my girlfriend’s Dad. Norman was our instructor. He was a lovely and friendly guy who was massively patient with us all! Some of the group had never shot before and required a bit more coaching, of which he was very good at!
Norman had a keen attention to safety without distracting from the fun, which I imagine can be quite challenging when you’re teaching a wide range of ages and skill levels!
We had a blast of a time and will definitely be coming back.
Unfortunately I took mainly videos and google won’t let me upload them to show how we got on!

Had a brilliant day with Norman, what a top instructor and a very nice chap. Even let my 15 year old son and 10 year old daughter have a go at no cost, and let them both keep Shooting until they hit a clay,  thanks Norman.

Had a blast shooting with Norman. We were 5 experienced shooters and 2 novices. Much enjoyed the low-key setting at the back of the farm and Norman's calm and confident manner. Great fun!

This was an amazing experience, one that I have never done before but have always wanted to do but have always been so scared. However, definitely nothing scary about it, I went whilst on holiday and being my first time the instructor was so helpful telling me what to do, knowing exactly what he was talking about. Would recommend and go back again when in the area.
