Russell Crowe recently visited the Werribee Victorian Clay Target Club ahead of his film shoot on Sleeping Dogs.
Sleeping Dogs is a thriller directed by Adam Cooper that will be shot in Bacchus Marsh.
The actor and director, who is best known for his Academy Award–winning performances in ‘Gladiator‘ and ‘A Beautiful Mind,’ was in town to enjoy some sporting clay target shooting.
The club, which is located in Quandong, is a popular destination for shooting enthusiasts and celebrities alike.
On this particular day, the Hollywood star was accompanied by his partner Britney Theriot.
Crowe took part in the sporting clay target shooting, which is one of the club‘s most popular activities.
Sporting clay targets are clay discs that are thrown from a trap house, and the goal is to hit them with a shotgun pellet.
The activity is designed to test the marksmanship and accuracy of the shooter. The actor was reportedly quite pleased with his performance, and the shooting club posted a picture of him on their social media, holding a gun ready to fire with his partner looking on.
The Werribee Victorian Clay Target Club was delighted to have Russell Crowe as a guest, and the staff went out of their way to ensure that he had a great experience.
