Frequently Asked Questions

I have never shot before. Can I still come along? Will I be able to do it?

Absolutely! We offer one-on-one coaching and tuition to help you hit the target and gain a skill in Clay Shooting! It is our promise that everyone will hit a target and have fun doing it!

No previous experience is necessary – and often we have found people who have never shot before can still make our ‘Top Gun’ leader board!

I have hired a car and would like to self-drive to the range? Can I do that?

We are more than happy for you to self- drive. We have a designated parking available at nearby Tucker’s Beach. From there, we will take you the rest of the way up Queenstown Hill.

We also offer courtesy return transport from local accommodation. This allows you to enjoy the journey, take in the views and of course take as many photos as you like!

CAN WE TAKE PICTURES AT THE SHOOTING RANGE?

Of course! We encourage you to take as many pictures and videos as you like. Please remember to share them with us on our Facebook and Instagram as well as our Trip Advisor page!

CAN MY CHILDREN SHOOT WITH ME, WHAT IS THE MINIMUM AGE?

Clay Target Shooting is a great family activity, although we do have a minimum size requirement. We suggest children be around 12 years of age, however we require all shooters to be 1.5m tall and weigh a minimum of 50kgs. This is to ensure they are able to manage the firearm safely and of course enjoy the experience!

The weather forecast for my holiday in Queenstown is looking terrible! Do you still go ahead in bad weather conditions?

We are not as weather dependent as some activities in Queenstown!

It generally takes torrential rain, or a dump of snow to stop us getting up the hill to shoot some clays!

In the event of bad weather, please call us if you’re unsure.

My friends want me to join them in the shooting, but I’m worried the gun will be too heavy and hurt my shoulder!

There’s no need to worry! We have carefully chosen the equipment we use!

We use Beretta guns specifically designed to be used by both beginners and experienced shooters, with a specially designed recoil reducer and low recoil ammunition. In addition to the one-on-one coaching, we will ensure you have a great time!

No previous experience is necessary – and often we have found people who have never shot before can still make our ‘Top Gun’ leader board!

We do require four people to confirm a trip, however contact us to find out if we have a confirmed trip you can possibly join.
