Clay pigeon shooting is a challenging test of hand/eye co-ordination and reaction speed. In the events at Armathwaite Hall Hotel and Spa, the clays would be released to mimic the unpredictable nature of live birds by alternating between trajectories, angles, speed etc. Unlike game shooting, clay pigeon shooting can be enjoyed year-round, making it perfect in the somewhat changeable conditions of the Lake District.
