More reasons to visit Barbados.

[img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif[/img] My Husband is a great sports fan; one of his favorite pass times at home is Clay Target Shooting. I never dreamed Barbados would have
A clay target club but on arrival my husband was very quick to discover Kendal Sporting
[url="http://kendalsportingclaysbarbados.com"]Kendal[/url] I though well I have lost my Husband for a few days which was not altogether bad, however I was encouraged by another couple staying at the hotel with us to take a trip up to Kendal myself so I decided I would be a good sport and go along.

On arriving at Kendal I was very impressed the Club was more like a mini Country Club and the scenery out in the middle of the Country was beautiful. We where very fortunate to meet Richard Bradshaw one of the directors of the Club he was very helpful and after a few hours of lying by the pool he encourage me to learn the sport that had long been a favorite of my husbands.

Richard was a great instructor and gave me a thorough education on the correct way to handle a rifle and a pistol. I was very pleased with all that I learnt. Before this experience I was nervous about rifles and pistols but thanks to my new education from Kendal Sporting I am now a lot more confident that faced with one in a negative situation I would be able to react. I also think I may start to join my Husband on occasion at his local club.

On completing my education my Husband and I had a fantastic lunch at the Club and watched a football match on the big screen by the bar. It was a wonderful day one of three we spent at the facility. The night before we returned home we made one last visit to Kendal for a relaxing dinner, and to say good bye and see you next time to some new friends.

Jenny,
Thanks for sharing this. My DH would love it, but I'm afraid to say anything to him because we only have one short day here. I noticed you posted a favorable report for Glory Tours. Which tour did you take? I am interested in Best of Barbados and wanterd some feedback from some one who had recently been. Thanks!

Hi Ann

Maybe you can do a bit of both [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] do a tour in the morning and shoot in the evening if your time allows [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] Glory Tours is very accomodating perhaps they would be willing to drop you off at the club at the end of the tour.

We actually did the Natural Wonders but I have heard the Best of Barbados is great. I wish I could help more

Thanks for your input! Since our ship leaves at 5:00 pm it might be cutting it close to do both.
