ENGLISH SPORTING PRACTICE



Fennes Shooting Ground is predominantly a sporting shooting ground, however it is our aim to provide a complete facility for all shooters and disciplines. So in addition to our sporting shooting ranges, we also operate a single skeet range and a single down the line range (DTL). Our large 120ft and smaller 30ft tower offer you the chance to really test yourself!


We have 14 stands, and over 50 traps to offer with a variety of targets to suit all abilities. Our trap specialist and groundsman team work hard to change the trap layout regularly to keep you on your toes! 


Our Promatic card readers, enable solo delay so you can come on your own or with your family and friends.
