Had a less than brilliant day today. I was shooting UT in probably the worst light I have shot in very grey sky and cold. I only managed a couple of 19's and an 18. But what was doing my nut was I was shooting very well on my first barrel just nothing happening at all if I missed with the first ?
I was advised by one of the regulars that I have a low gun hold. I hold on or just above the front edge of the lid, he advised a hold about a 400mm or so above that I tried but it was a no goer for me. Which prompts the question what is a good hold point? I have always got my best results from just on or just above the front edge.
The other thing that I have a question about is this. One of todays shooters was having several miss fires on his first barrel I think he had four in one round how many would be allowed before a ref would step in in a comp? Not a complaint just an enquiry

I think he just thought my misses were down to head lifting more than anything else. He did say the light conditions were not good... we are so used to an azure blue sky down here but today was a bit like a dull day in Scotland!
