Have you got what it takes to be this year’s top Gun at the World Pheasant Association’s fundraiser?
The conservation charity, the World Pheasant Association, will be having a fundraising charity clay shoot on Friday 9 July at the new Acorn Shooting ground at Beacon Hill Farm near Amesbury.
This popular annual event raises important funds for the conservation work of the WPA both at home and abroad. The day features competitive teams of four shooting individually or in pairs in the morning followed by a hog roast lunch. In the afternoon, following prizegiving, there is a raffle and an auction of top prizes including fly fishing, shooting days, artisan woodwork, leather goods to name a few.
The black-necked pheasant sculpture trophy will be presented to the top Gun on the high tower simulation and the black grouse trophy will be presented to the overall top Gun. Non-members are more than welcome bring a team or come as individuals.
