There’s nothing quite like the thrill of breaking your first clay, and for Kimberley Vause, her first-ever experience at Lecq Clay Target Club in May 2023 was one to remember. With a mixture of excitement and nerves, Kimberley took to the stand under the expert guidance of instructor Paul Gregory – a familiar face at the club known for his calm approach and encouraging words.
From the very first shot, Kimberley embraced the challenge, quickly discovering why so many people fall in love with the sport of clay shooting. Paul ensured she felt confident handling the shotgun safely, explaining the techniques needed to track and hit the fast-moving targets. What started as a completely new experience soon turned into an exhilarating morning filled with laughter, learning, and a few well-earned hits.
Kimberley’s positive attitude and willingness to give it her all made the session a great success. By the end, she was already talking about coming back for another round — proof of just how addictive clay shooting can be once you get started!
We love welcoming newcomers like Kimberley to Lecq Clay Target Club, where every shooter, no matter their experience level, can enjoy a safe, friendly, and rewarding environment. If you’ve ever thought about giving clay shooting a try, take Kimberley’s lead — all it takes is one session to get hooked!
