Does anybody know if there is a shooting ranch near Udon Thani where you can shoot some trap or doubletrap

Never heard of one the only thing I know about are the ranges at the Border Police Camp, I have seen them they were set up for combat courses. If you hear of any private ranges post it please.

Paul is involved with the Tourist Police ar at least he was he mmight be able to help you out. Even getting the gun to practise with here would seems to be a major thing

I am not aware of any ranges for public use here.

Incidentally, what is 'trap' and 'doubletrap' ?

Trap shooting is basicaly clay pigion shooting , single and double trap reffering to both the mechanisms used to launch the clay boiirds and also the type of guns . I believe you can have a single trap repeater shotgun but basically its the name given toa gun manufactured purely for shooting clays as against live birds. Or at least that is my knowledge of it.

Ma put on the kettle. Think I'll have a go at them clay birds. Never et one but will give it a try. Tried them there golfs. Shot two of them but had to throw one away, to darn chewy. Hell pulled out my tooth. Now I got to gum them grits.

Sounds like life in Thailand is agreeing with you, Brian.

Too durn hot to consider the cow pasture pool on this trip but will try to do it next time? Trapshooting in Udorn? Man, how the times have changed.

I go "moo ba" hunting every year with a group of Thai friends. I haven't noticed any shooting clubs open to general public.

The "moo ba" boys (besides the old boy farmer/hunters) are generally Police and Army on a weekend jolly

Suggest you ask the girlfriend /wife as apparently every Mia Flung is well connected with the police
