Pathetic fudds !
It would be interesting to get their reasoning in writing. .. just for a laugh.
I've been blasting clays with my adler for practice and it has certainly helped me learn to cycle the action well while keeping reasonably close to the target. Too bad this particular club can't see the merit in allowing someone to practice their lever action shotgun skills.
Clubs seem to be losing their way and totally forgetting what a clubs fundamental purpose is ... to encourage new people into shooting, to teach safety and marksmanship.
The more I hear about clubs the less interested I get.
Reached that level quite a few years ago now, too many legends and experts for my liking so gave it away completely unless I want to sight in a rifle but hardly even bother with them for that now, rather just head to the paddocks, sort it out there and then go for a hunt, less hassles, less bulls**t and a ****** more fun being in the paddock shooting ferals than at some range shooting holes in cardboard etc, just doesn't do it for me anymore, I love going for a shot then cutting some firewood, to me that's a great day out, not putting up with some over opinionated wannabee who will never be.
