    Shoot reports and news 2024

    Same for me, great round, decent weather, my shooting left a bit to be desired, my lad shot the course well, must have suited a left hander, always friendly in the clubhouse and the sausage and bacon bap was much better than my shooting

    Miss fire!

    You could try a box of different brand cartridges and see if similar results.

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    No idea what the comments were but he is still a young lad trying his best under his fathers shadow, whilst there may be some perks I doubt its as easy for him as some may think.

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Barrow for me and the weather was pretty good, didn't shoot the quartering away targets very well which cost me several today, the rest pretty happy, just about scraped my average but felt should have been better, good round of targets though.

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Barrow for me today, early start, and I thought it was as good a round as I have shot this year, shoot average was a testing 70 and it did feel a bit stiffer, never hit the b bird battue on 5 but shot the rest steady although not enough straights overall, pleased to finish with a score starting...

    Cone height

    Don't worry, just shoot slightly under the targets

    Tightest patterning fibre cartridge

    Not a great fan of fibres but for me, the best I have used for a tighter pattern were Cheddite Smart Strikes, price probably eye watering now.

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Well the unseasonable weather put pay to the plan to stay local and slow down for the rest of the year, 3 hours each way to Westfield, a new ground to us and what a stunning part of the country it is. The land topography and space available enables a great variety of targets, no eyesight tests...

    Noob Again - Lead

    Thats pretty much sums up the problem with trying to explain/agree lead, we all see it differently, I am not an instructor but can generally tell if someone is in front or behind, to try and get someone to adjust my go to is to double or half what they were giving it, usually helps a bit...

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    I find there are always lots of angles on the targets at Barrow and for me limited gun movement is key. I missed the first Battue on 3 in front, it needed less than I thought initially and did take away a 7, very chippy on the A birds which really surprised me. I dropped 2 of the A birds on 4...

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Barrow again yesterday in unseasonably mild conditions, good turnout and as usual all flowed well despite being busy, jumped around stands a bit and felt the variety of targets on show were excellent. The round, to me felt softer than the average of 76 suggests and scored well past this and...

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Barrow again yesterday, again a very enjoyable round, many variations but nothing that could not be hit, shoot average again suggests on the softer side at 78%. Felt I shot it pretty well and only really disappointed with what felt the easier bird of the pair missing the first bird 3 times on...

    4 months, that don't sound like any sort of service to me, hopefully not gone deaf in the meantime

    Yes I said it usually takes a few days (for the list to be published) and then the cheques follow?

    Sporting shoots 2023. How was it?

    Barrow today in glorious weather, the round felt softer than normal and the average stats at 78% backs that up, dropped 5 on stand 1 (it was very straightable) but shot the rest pretty well and finished well above both mine and the course average, lots of good conversations with shooting pals...

    British Open, Garlands

    I kind of felt the same and tried to explain the process and my perceived unfairness to my other half, she is a keen athlete and basically compared it to the heats leading up to the final, 4 heats, top 2 in each heat makes it to the final, some slower runners qualify to the final and some...

    British Open, Garlands

    Shot it today and thought was a very decent round, despite shooting what I would consider 3 of the easier stands poorly I still managed to achieve my average which was pleasing. Although my score would have qualified comfortably for the final for the previous 2 days unfortunately not quite...
