Shane Bisgood’s book, The Complete Shot, on sale at Mayo outlets

Shane Bisgood’s book, The Complete Shot, has been launched at a reception in The Gallery at Errisbeg House in Roundstone

Richard de Stacpoole hosted this long-awaited event and spoke in glowing terms about the quality of the writing, the valuable content and the high production values of the publication.

He described it as an essential read for both novices and experienced shooters.

He pointed out that many stories of the people Shane has encountered while teaching internationally, would appeal to a very broad audience of shooters around the world.

Richard also focused on the sporting achievements of the author not only as a shooting instructor but also as an accomplished horseman, fly fisherman, skipper and aviator.

In his address, Shane began by explaining that his motivation to write The Complete Shot came from the number of people who asked him had he written a book.

Within those pages are his knowledge of this subject, the methods he advocates and the logical application of his advice and the diagnosis of a shooter’s difficulties, gleaned during those 48 years of teaching. They needed to be available, to be saved for this and for future generations.

Shane finished by acknowledging the encouragement he received from his parents from a very young age, particularly his beloved Father and he thanked all those involved in helping him to publish The Complete Shot.

Finally, Shane particularly thanked all those who attended the launch.

The Gallery at Errisbeg House have a number of events planned. For more information log on to www.errisbeghouse.ie
