Based on the English Churchill method, our instinctive approach to shotgun shooting and wingshooting offers both novice and seasoned veterans a complete shooting system applicable to upland hunting, waterfowl hunting, or sporting clays. One of the keys to our teaching philosophy is to group students together according to their levels of ability and experience. By doing this, we can give all our shooting school students a sensible starting point and then help them progress through the various sporting clay target venues with very positive results. Although actual shooting comprises the bulk of the Orvis wingshooting schools, students also participate in essential instruction on shotgun safety. In addition, each student receives a complimentary shotgun fitting to establish and record individual stock dimensions.
Orvis wingshooting schools are conducted at three company-operated locations: |

The building blocks of the Orvis shotgun shooting school program include stance and footwork, shotgun handling, swing, visual concentration, proper gun mounting, and correct fitting of the shotgun. These fundamentals of wing shooting are ingrained through practice, practice, and more practice, as hundreds of shells are fired by each student with an instructor analyzing every shot.
Each of these sporting clays locations provides the opportunity to attend an Orvis upland hunting school at virtually any time of the year. Plan to join us at one of our trap and clay shooting school locations for a profound learning experience and a lot of fun!

- Expert comprehensive instruction.
