Cheers Fella, Might have to sneak down to Connecticut as well then !...

What's your discipline? ... For me its Skeet and English Sporting, not very good but I try hard!

Great thread. I too share the Clays Addiction...

During the season I try and shoot a few times a week in Conn area, mostly sporting and skeet. Dover Furnace is my usual haunt and a 32 inch K80 is my favorite steed!

Would love to attend some lake area Shoots this summer.

Addiction is a great way of putting it... and a K80, very nice too. Personally, my preference is a 30" Browning XL Comp, mainly through the good balance of weight and pointability it gives me! (Still can't shoot like Digweed though!)

Out of interest, what are the Laws and Reg's on setting up any form of clay ground, either temp or permanent in NH, anybody know? Could be of interest to me a bit later on when I spend more time in the area!

There is no easy answer to that. At the state level see:
http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rsa/.../159-b-mrg.htm

If all you want to do is have a trap or two for your own private use then it is primarily a matter of having enough land for safety and meeting any existing town noise regulations.

Opening a club for public or members shooting is another matter. In general you will have to gain town planning board approval which means town specific regulations and lots of public hearings where considerable public opposition can be expected. Limiting to shotgun only would help with safety concerns. In general the larger the parcel of land and the more rural the setting, the better chance of getting approval. Overall not an easy process.
