Lake Macquarie Clay Shooting, Compared

Choosing the Right Clay Pigeon Shooting Supplier

West of the lake, well away from the waterfront suburbs, Awaba is where Lake Macquarie's clay target shooting happens. The Newcastle Lake Macquarie Clay Target Club runs a large bushland complex there that representative shooters use for training, yet it books plenty of first-timers too.

Why groups from around the lake head inland for it:

  • A change from the water: a bushland range instead of another lakeside lunch
  • Scale: corporate events take groups of four to 50
  • Beginners covered: guided try-outs need no licence
  • Plenty of layouts: trap, skeet, trench and five-stand
  • Cost guide: From $50 per person

Pair the shoot with a meal at the clubhouse canteen and bar, or keep the outing short and head back towards the lake afterwards.
