    Hi,

    Did you find this club? I'm also looking to join a club, get a gun, etc, etc. but I'm finding it difficult to get in contact with any local clubs. I'm from Sixmilebridge and can't find any club members.

    Crossmore shooting grounds might be worth a call and there’s a place called Tullahasa as well close by.

    Typically, how many cartridges should one put down on their gun license? On some posts I've seen 250-500 but on others over a 1000 because they are cheaper when you buy in bulk. I'm taking up clay pigeon shooting and I expect to do it every weekend to start & then probably everyother weekend. Thanks TC

    Tullassa Clay grounds just outside Ennis. Mate of mine was at it, found it a bit pricey.
