As it’s a World Sporting event do you also see all the other nations signing up / agreeing to similar 🤔

Curiosity got me, 1623 entries for main event, that’s very impressive,

Now I didn’t shoot EJC, but yes you do raise valid points re the averages are far more ”accurate“ of one’s ability etc for the fixed target disciplines. Sporting has, as we are all aware so many variables, with the sheer volume of shoots on offer every week it shouldn’t be too difficult to rack...

Am another that went to Coleys, it ripped me a new one would be an appropriate phrase. Entry down due to the Worlds, holidays and the general financial squeeze I’d imagine, the near empty car park didn’t offer many hiding places for the finished squads that all bore the look of having had to...

Sorry to read about the difficulties at Barbury on the whole they rarely get such things “wrong” Huw and Josh are quite approachable so if you get a chance do share with them your experience. Saturday, just had brunch and sitting looking weather it’s overcast with the odd squally shower so🤞 for...

Would imagine the chaps paying the astronomical prices being bandied around per bird those £600+/1000 cartridges will seem a bargain, us clay crunchers however

Yes there was a reg that saw lots of big big numbers, got openly slated by quite a few, will admit fair few of the shoots over the years have been more than a bit “tasty” which believe me caused even more angst. Wouldn’t be a course setter me, too tough a crowd to work with us clay crunchers.

Bend it.

Not for I but has anyone shot it? if so could you answer a q on how they are classifying entries, a few names I know have, yet from current CPSA period I’m seeing AAs in B, As in AA and Bs in A? Not that any are placed currently in prize list mind so no melt downs on horizon with these, but...

MrJ have felt that the numbers of B (30% of membership) & in particular C (25%) in theory 55% of the entry are actually far less frequent shooters than the A and you AA AAA chaps, so yes the shoot average is disproportionately high. Can’t see any further changes to the existing system being...

Was still parading the side of the road this very week, £50 fine eh, that may actually be a lot cheaper than some figures being banded around for 2023-24!!

It’s splitting hairs but TO is / was £42, you are though correct one shouldn’t be seeing targets from other stands, and yes Roxtons will want a decent return from their “investment” hopefully over decades. Fortunately all my no birds were first targets so no cartridges unnecessarily used, 

Coleys today, on late afternoon and weather was glorious, it seems first thing it was quite chilly so picked the right time of day to fall on ones face. Bit marmite for I this one, oh yes always think I should have done better but a few targets were a bit of a lottery I felt. St2 when on a l-r...

The 580 frame they do sell is very very similar though?

Not a reg, went to the Wye Valley Guns open day / comp at Longridge today, six stand 50 targets, two stands being three traps with A B C targets shot in a super sport style, with MrKeen and one’s brother with whom I’ve not shot with for a goodly while. Saw lots of friendly faces, some not seen...

What Jasper said, to be successful in sporting there times when there will be an advantage with a full pre mount, will add that there does seem to a growing trend by some to have such for every target, which I do find odd

Well MrH as that simo pair outfoxed a wily old AA such as yourself you can imagine the faces us duffers pulled 🥺😠😡🤬

Another that went to Barbury, yes lovely weather, arms quite red this evening which for me is a most rare occurrence. 1pm start, already a AAA had made it known he thought it was "steady", well steady for AAA most probably yes, this old duffer soon made a hash of things. The one stand that...

You are correct, there is no Super Final, highest score wins, will be quite a few shooting off for 2nd & below at present 

Even a duffer like me thinks that is all “wrong” with multiple selection shoots & two ESP majors in year there must be a way of generating funds so a significant contribution can be made.
