<p>Did you know Bucks is home to&nbsp;the only UK shooting venue that’s hosted the World Clay Championships five times in a row? Hello, E.J. Churchill – this upmarket shooting ground is nestled in the rolling Chilterns on the West Wycombe estate.</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter if you don’t know your 12 bore over-and-under from your Silver Pigeon though, because the E.J. Churchill team have been teaching everyone from absolute beginners to Olympians how to hit the mark since the 1980s. They also extend a warm welcome to non-shooting enthusiasts through their hosting luxury events, and this is where we get&nbsp;<em>really</em>&nbsp;interested, because we have their first-ever Christmas Shopping Night in our sights.</p>

<p>On the evening of Thurs 5 Dec only, the the doors of the E.J.Churchill Shooting Lodge will be open while you tick off your gift-list at an evening of hygge-filled Christmas cheer.</p>



<p>Here&#8217;s what you need to know about the evening.</p>

<p>Think designer togs from luxury brands, with a steer towards outdoorsy wear with discounts on up to 70% off on selected clothes, gifts and accessories. No problem picking up a new Schöffel gilet for the next shooting weekend you’re invited on, then, a new pair of Le Chameau wellies or even a gift voucher for a shooting lesson or experience.  You could even cruise home in a Bentley – okay, they’re not strictly for sale, but there’ll be a newly released Bentley Bentayga on show outside the shooting lodge c/o Rylands Bentley. Even if it&#8217;s not in your price bracket, you can still enjoy the rare up-close ogle.</p>

<p>We said E.J. Churchill is a magnet for Olympians – and you can meet a bona fide sporting superstar at its late-night shopping event. British Olympian Amber Rutter, who trains at E.J. Churchill’s West Wycombe club (it also has grounds in North Yorkshire and Scotland), will join the party for a meet and greet. Not content with being a Team GB Silver Medallist, she’s also designed a snazzy range of shooting clothing called UKIYO. Check it out on the night – or if you can’t wait that long, have an&nbsp;<a href="https://ukiyoshooting.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">e-preview here</a>.</p>

<p>They had us at complimentary Champagne and canapés (well, you joining us?). There’ll be tasting sessions of Whyte &amp; Mackay whisky and Churchill’s port to get you in the Christmas spirit – and even a puff on a cigar at the Havana House Bar if that&#8217;s your bag.</p>

<p>We like that sound of that. By 5 Dec the countdown to Christmas is real, people. Team E.J. Churchill are starting their festive clock with their 12 Clays of Christmas raffle at the shopping night. This is a super-luxe giveaway, so no sad-looking bottles of £6.99 Cab Sav here. Enter the prize draw and you could win a pair of Le Chameau Vierzonord wellies, a bottle of 10-year-old Churchill’s Port or an E.J. Churchill shooting lesson or experience. Other prize goodies have been donated by Schoffel, YETI, Whyte &amp; Mackay and Bentley (annnoyingly not the car, but you could win a Bentley Bear).</p>



<p>You don’t have to be a member to come along to this shopping night at the E.J. Churchill ground (although <a href="https://shop.ejchurchill.com/product-category/membership/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">club memberships</a> for someone special are available) so wrap up head out and get Christmas sorted early; lock, stock, and barrel. </p>
