How OUCPSC Works

• You do not need a gun licence or previous experience to shoot with the club. We provide everything you might need, including transportation to/from the shooting ground and all the protective equipment.

• If you are new to the sport or have only shot a few times, it is required that you attend at least one Have-a-Go sessions before you can join us on our open practices and competitions. This is to ensure safety to you and to fellow shooters, and an absolute requirement. These are small group sessions led by a professional shooting instructor who will guide you through the basics of gun handling, safety, eye dominance and the general approach to shooting moving targets. 

• You can attend club sessions as often as you would like. Sport or hobby, it's up to you. 

• You do not need to be a paid club member to attend Have-a-Go sessions, but you are required to purchase membership if you would like to continue shooting with the club and participating in our social events. If you are an experienced shot, we invite you to attend one practice session before requiring you to become a member.

• Have-A-Go sessions are catered for beginners and include all equipment, transport, a professional instructor, 25 targets and cartridges. 

• Open practice sessions are targeted at those more experienced shots who know what they are doing and include all equipment, transport, 50 targets and cartridges. Wearing a hat is a mandatory safety requirement.

• If you are keen to shoot with us but cannot make it to the sessions currently available, do let us know and we might be able to arrange extra sessions if there is enough demand.
