Springbank Plantation @ Barnsley Gardens Resort is the proud home of the newly formed Caesar Guerini Wings & Clays School.
Caesar Guerini is a leading manufacture of Italian made over and under shotguns and they have partnered with Barnsley Gardens Resort to bring to you a world class shotgun school.
The school format is based around either one or two day sessions depending on your schedule and shooting needs. We cater to all experience levels, from the first time shot-gunner to the experienced upland hunter and clay target enthusiast.
Every sport has a learning curve and the sooner you learn the fundamentals and basics related to that sport the quicker you will experience success. We believe in teaching the fundamentals and basics of shotgun shooting in a relaxed setting at your learning pace.
There are many different shooting methods one can apply to breaking a target or shooting upland birds. We believe in teaching an instinctive approach to shot-gunning, one that will allow each student to develop his own natural style as he learns and practices the fundamentals.
Our staff of NSCA (National Sporting Clays Association) certified instructors will tailor their teaching style to your needs. Our student to instructor ratio is 4:1 so that we can give each student that personal time needed to improve.
Our Chief Instructor, Skip Smith, is an NSCA Level III instructor and has been teaching professionally for over 15 years. Skip and his staff will do their best to put you in a group of like ability shooters so that everyone can progress at an even pace.
Each school day starts off at 9:30 AM and ends around 4 PM with lunch at the Woodlands Grill.

The first morning will include a short classroom session before moving to the Shooting Grounds for instruction. We will have Caesar Guerini shotguns available for those students who do not have a gun or would like to shoot one of our guns. These shotguns are available in either 12 gauge, 20 gauge or 28 gauge in various lengths of pull so that everyone can use a gun that is comfortable to shoot. You are more than welcome to bring your own gun if you prefer.
On the second afternoon of our two day school we will take the instruction out onto our 16 station sporting clays course and expand the target presentations to our students. During the hunting season (October 1 through March 31) we can offer a half-day quail hunt at Springbank Plantation on that second afternoon if you are interested in experiencing an upland hunt (there is an additional charge for the quail hunt).
Pricing: One day schools are $575 per student; Two day schools are $1150 per student. School pricing includes gun rental, ammunition, targets, instruction, and lunch each day.
