Clay Shooting for the Beginner.
When
it comes to taking up the sport of clay pigeon shooting it can be a
daunting proposition. How do you start? Where do you go? What gun should
you use? Not to mention safety, gun-fit, cartridges and chokes… it can
be a very confusing time! Our advice… get expert tuition, with the help
of Rod Brammer; top coach from the Shalden Shooting School in Devon, we
have created here an insight into how you too can get started in the sport
and to answer many of the questions that will arise along the way. Whether
its your intention to just shoot a few clays at the local club for fun or
to go on to more serious competition this DVD will be a helpful reference.
You will enjoy Rods laid back approach to the way he instructs his pupil
Liam Dale and how he instills the basic knowledge and confidence in the
novice shot. You will learn the techniques involved in tackling a variety
of the easier targets and also get an insight into how to conduct yourself
on the shooting ground. You may also like to know that this is the first
in a trilogy of clay shooting DVDs. If youve enjoyed this one and hope to
progress in the sport, look out for the others; Clay Shooting for the
Intermediate and Clay Shooting for the Advanced Shot.
Clay Shooting for the Intermediate. So, Liam Dale has
put into practice the things he learnt in our first programme and is now
hitting a respectable percentage of the targets he shoots at. He now
understands the importance of safety and a lot of the more technical aspects
of the sport. Its time to return to the Shalden Shooting School in Devon and
to get top coach Rod Brammer to take him onto the next level. Rod will be
explaining to Liam how to master some of the more tricky targets; one of which
proves to be a real tester for our improving shot. Whilst Liam regroups from a
difficult target, we catch sight of his wheelchair-bound friend Andy Beadsley,
expertly performing on the driven pheasant stand. To introduce his pupil to a
little competitive pressure, Rod suggests that Liam should shoot a "head
to head" with Jacky Coote on the driven grouse stand. Boys against
girls… just shows this sport can be enjoyed by everyone. (For those of you
whove participated in sporting shooting for a while, you will no doubt
recognise the voice of that great character Chris Craddock who adds his expert
comment to their performances but who has sadly passed away since this
programme was filmed) In preparation for the real thing, we end the programme
with Liam putting down his over and under, picking up a side by side and
shooting at simulated coveys of driven partridge. For good measure, theres
even a demonstration from Rod on how to clean your gun properly when youve
finished shooting. This being the second programme in a trilogy of clay
shooting DVDs we hope you will now have gained enough knowledge and are ready
to step up to the last in the series; Clay Shooting for the Advanced Shot.
Here youll get top tips from none other than the English Sporting, former
World Champion Carl Bloxham, Phil Coley a performance enhancement specialist
and with the aid of the gun cam have a lesson in DTL with former England
International coach Ian Coley.
Clay Shooting for the Advanced
Shot. In this, the last
of the three programmes in the series, youll get an idea of what it would
really be like to be considered an advanced shot. Although you are now at a
pretty competent level, the title advanced shot is still best reserved for
characters like those that will be teaching you today. The first part of the
programme is filmed at Edge Hill Shooting Grounds where you will see Carl
Bloxham the former World Champion in the English Sporting discipline, putting
some pretty good shots (young and old) through their paces. Carl analyses
faults that have crept into their styles and passes on tips to improve
consistency. He is ably assisted by Phil Coley the performance enhancement
specialist and they will be taking you through a variety of targets. We then
move on with our old friend Liam Dale who has a lesson in the finer points of
shooting DTL. What better venue than Chatcombe Estate Shooting School and what
better tutor than the former England International coach Ian Coley. To begin
with Ian explains the differences between a trap gun, which is more suited to
DTL and Liams normal sporting gun. The differences conceded, Liam borrows a
trap gun and visits the pattern plate to establish exactly where it shoots.
See how with expert coaching Ian helps Liam to adapt to this different type of
discipline. With the aid of a gun cam (a camera mounted on the rib of a gun)
Ian explains the different gun hold positions and demonstrates when to mount
and where to shoot at each bird from the various stations. Also in this
section there is a very useful segment showing the most common faults for you
to avoid.

| ARTIST | Nicolas Trudgian
Having graduated from art college, Nicolas Trudgian spent many years as a professional illustrator before turning to a career in fine art painting. His crisp style of realism, attention to detail, compositional skills and bright use of colours, immediately found favour with collectors and demand for his original work soared on both sides of the Atlantic. Today, more than a decade after becoming a fine art painter, Nicolas Trudgian is firmly established within a tiny, elite group of aviation artists whose works are genuinely collected world-wide. Over the past decade Nick has earned a special reputation for giving those who love his work much more than just aircraft in his paintings. He goes to enormous lengths with his backgrounds, filling them with interesting and accurate detail, all designed to help give the aircraft in his paintings a tremendous sense of location and purpose. His landscapes are quite breathtaking and his buildings demonstrate an uncanny knowledge of perspective but it is the hardware in his paintings which are most striking. Whether it is an aircraft, tank, petrol bowser, or tractor, Nick brings it to life with all the inordinate skill of a truly accomplished fine art painter. A prodigious researcher, Nick travels extensively in his constant quest for information and fresh ideas. He has visited India, China, South Africa, South America, the Caribbean and travels regularly to the United States and Canada. He likes nothing better than to be out and about with sketchbook at the ready and if there is an old steam train in the vicinity, well that's a bonus!

| | Back From Normandy by Nicolas Trudgian |
Normandy Special - £50 off until July 12th!
Like the Messerschmitt 109, its great adversary throughout almost six years of aerial combat, the Spitfire was a fighter par excellence. Good as many other types may have been, these two aircraft became symbols of the two opposing air forces they represented. Their confrontation, which began in 1940 during the Battle of Britain, continued without interruption until the last days of World War Two. From an air force teetering on extinction in the dark days of 1940, by the summer of 1944 the pilots of RAF Fighter Command had fought their way back to become top dogs. And when the invasion of northern France came, they swept over the beaches in force, cutting deep into enemy occupied territory, hammering the enemy in the air and on the ground. Key to this air superiority was the supreme performance of the Spitfire, its ability to out-fly the Luftwaffes best, and the wily leadership of the pilots who had survived the early air battles of the war. Among the best was 26 year old Pete Brothers, by 1944 a highly successful and experienced fighter pilot commanding his own Wing. Having fought through the battles of France and Britain, now with a clutch of air victories to his credit, in 1944 he took command of first the Exeter Wing, and then the Culinhead Wing, ideally placed to support the coming invasion of Normandy. Nick Trudgians striking painting recreates a typical scene as Mk IX Spitfires of 126 Squadron, led by Wing Commander Pete Brothers flying his Mk V11 Spitfire wearing high altitude paint scheme, race back to base at RAF Culinhead after a low-level attack on enemy transport in Normandy. The Culinhead Spitfire Wing flew constant armed Rhubarb attacks in support of the invasion from D-Day - June 6 1944 - till the first improvised strips were established in France a few weeks following the invasion. This beautiful aviation print, contrasting the frenetic pace of war with a restful English coastal landscape, evokes the memory of a legendary fighter aircraft that, flown by gallant pilots, helped change the course of history. Prints are signed by Pete Brothers and two other pilots who flew Spitfires in combat during World War II. Signed by Air Commodore Peter Brothers CBE, DSO, DFC* (deceased),
Lieutenant General Avi Baron M Donnet CVO DFC FRAeS
and
Squadron Leader Arthur Leigh DFC, DFM. |
