Welcome to Thomas Friar Coaching
Based in Kent and the South of England.
I have been shooting for many years. With experience in many types of shooting including: clay pigeon, game, rough shooting, woodpigeon shooting, wildfowling, and also many different rifle shooting disciplines.
I have a passion for teaching people about the sport I love and feel this comes across in my coaching sessions. I enjoy coaching all levels of shooter from the complete novice to a more experienced shot.
I regularly coach at events including: Game Fairs, Ladies Days and Young Shots days.
I regularly coach at shooting ground in the South of England. I’m available for private tuition including in field on peg tuition and will travel to your clay or game shoot, where possible, if required.
"Just before our shoot time we were taken to our coach Tom who gave us instructions, tips and a score sheet.. He was brilliant , told us a bit of history about shooting, how to stand, hold thegun, etc.. As well as being informative, professional and patient he was a good laugh thanks Tom you really helped make the day special .. I can see why people get hooked on this hobby, it's a great feeling when you hit the target!! I was terrible but Tom kept trying!! I would really recommend this club , the experience lasted about an hour and a half and was thoroughly enjoyable , well organised and very informal ..
Will definitely go again"
"Passionate about the sport
Went with my mother. My mother and I have shot once twelve years ago but were made to feel very welcomed; there were no airs about the place. The instructor - Tom - was really well read on the subject and passionate about the sport which was nice and made the shooting more engaging. Great coaching for what were two (as good as) first time shooters and a really fun experience! Perfect atmosphere and environment for beginners for sure. Will definitely visit again."
