    Kent Woodsmen near ashford, ETL just the other side of the dartford tunnel.

    A location in kent would help narrow down the area a bit

    I aimed at the right place at the wrong time.

    Airgun Clubs

    There is indoor shooting at the Blacklion Leisure Centre, Gillingham, but only up to 25 yards.

    Dover and Deal District Air Gun Club, paper and knockdowns sitting in shooting huts in a wood. DOVERDEALAGC@aol.com

    Buckmore park closed ages ago. Never knew there was shooting there.

    Not heard of shooting at the lion.

    Kent woodsman is the best club Ive been to down here. Swanley is OK for plinking if you like shooting the same 5 targets all day And its a big no no in the summer!! Never have I seen so many mossies in one place! Over 150 bites in one morning

    I'm near Sittingbourne, and shoot at Kent Woodsmen. Takes about 45 minutes to get there from Sittingbourne. No indoor shooting there, and they are predominantly Field Target, though do have a plinking range. FT course can be shot as HFT if you are into that.

    ETL just the other side of the Dartford tunnel is very similar, but have slightly better facilities (container with electricity used as club house where hot drinks can be had)

    As others have said, there is a club on the outskirts of Dover which is really glorified plinking from small wooden huts. I've heard about the shooting at the Black Lion in Gillingham/Chatham, but have no idea what format it takes or who you would need to contact.

    Morning chap, come along to the Swanley club, we're all nice blokes (well as far as I know) I've been a member since Jan this year, it's the best fun you can have with your clothes on mate! It's all out doors, cold unless your huddled round the fire with the boys, but the best fun you'll have on a Sunday.

    Your first two trips are free, so come down and see if it's worth it mate. It's hard to find so if you need directions check your PM I'll send you my number.

    Hey Lee how's your back doing?
    We are all missing you (much like your shooting ), if you are going to pop in I'll get my dad to install a Stenna stair lift to move you around the site. Not that it will improve your shooting, no amount of mechanical inhancement could help that
