Each year the club run two Clay Pigeon Schoots, one in April and one in July. These shoots are supported by gun clubs from all over the country and have grown in popularity over the past few years. The shoots are usually held on Sundays with both novice and professional shooters taking part, some of whom have shot for Munster and also represented Ireland on the Irish Clay Pigeon Team in International Competition. Clay pigeon shooting is a thrilling experience, demanding calm concentration, a keen eye and quick reaction making it a great sport for all, young, old, men and women alike.

The shoots are open to any member of the public owning a legally held shot gun.
