About this video:

This morning we are squeezing in one last activity before we leave the awesome adventure lodge of Makoura Lodge. We are doing clay bird shooting at Makoura Lodge in Manawatu.

As soon as we wake up we meet one of our Makoura Lodge hosts for a round of clay bird shooting. It’s the first time we are firing a shotgun and we get full training from our Makoura Lodge host. We have about 10 clay birds to shoot so the competition is on to see who can shoot the most clay birds!

It’s an awesome way to end out time at Makoura Lodge before moving onto our next New Zealand destination, Plimmerton on the outskirts of Wellington.

The road to Plimmerton takes us through the Manawatu region with some stunning scenery of rolling green hills – classic New Zealand scenery as if we were in Middle-earth. We reach Plimmerton just in time to watch the sunset on the beach.

So what do you think of clay bird shooting at Makoura Lodge? Is it an activity you would try in New Zealand?
