Superb result, well done Growl and everyone involved!

No problems mate, I too have only recently got back into this game so learning all the time, best of luck with your forth coming shoot! Steve

Funny you should mention that as this has been playing on my mind so booked an eye test this week to see if my suspicions are correct, good idea with the mini mag though will try that! Steve

Some great replies and ideas guys, thanks, unlike Dave, I am definitely left eye and left shoulder mounted but my dominant eye got damaged a few years back so although close birds are ok it's distance, straight down the rib it's when there's background distractions and distance involved my...

Many thanks Ed, I am going to remove the bead completely first and go with that, it's probably a case of more practice for me but birds against backgrounds and two pairs, same direction, are my downfall at the moment, possibly the white bead throwing me out as I seem to be out above them every...

How do find these beads, although I am shooting from the left shoulder and definitely left eye dominant I struggle with the odd pairs against backgrounds like hedges and some crossers, i have the standard white bead which is rubbish imo, so been thinking to get one of these easy fit beads but...

Hello & welcome!

I am left handed naturally, definately left eye dominant but have to keep both eyes open to hit anything, tried closing right eye but miss a hell of a lot more that way round, but then probably hit more with both eyes closed! :biggrin:

Probably a silly question but if you wear glasses normally do you still need to wear safety glasses too as they state on some grounds? I know the glasses are essential not only for protection but for low/bright light etc as coming into this from a fly fishing background, I tend to use clip on...

Just had the FEO out yesterday afternoon, got the all clear on cabinet etc, really nice fella, had some good advice for a newbie like me, he has said I should receive my cert in the post in the next 2-3 weeks, I handed the application in on the 7th jan so all told not too bad a wait.....as long...

Happy birthday for yesterday! lucky b*gger ;o)

Cheers Darkside, I will be on Clays the most so you are probably correct.....here goes more money! ;)

I was toying with membership for the CPSA as a lot of the time I will be shooting clays this year to get back into the swing of things and practice BUT I also have the opportunity to do some rough shooting with a good friend who is a headkeeper of a big estate so question is should I opt to join...
