Will need to show proof of insurance as well if I remember correctly
I always intended to go when I lived in Warwickshire but never got around to it
I stand to be corrected on the above but pretty sure that's how it's ran
Very strange affair if its target shooting club! wtf

It isn't a target shooting club.

It's not even a club.

It's a shooting range.

As the Badger says, it ain't a club
If memory serves, it's an area of land that you follow a track around, and at various places there is a firing point with a few varmint or deer type silouhet targets at varying ranges to simulate hunting type scenarios
So it's not an official 'range' as such, hence the need for an open ticket and adequate insurance to shoot there
