Championship entries open

[Hawkeye]

English Open + British Open , Sunday slot's filling quickly

 

[snipey]

Stayed up last night, got on 11am squad on Sunday.

 

[Hawkeye]

So did I , and a lot of other's  I'm on at 1pm for E/O + B/O

 

[Hawkeye]

How long will it take you to get to the M4 snipey?

 

[snipey]

Just over an hour from here in Exeter, driving sensibly! .

 

[Hawkeye]

Takes me 3 3/4 hrs to Nottingham SG or 1 3/4hrs to M4-M5junction

 

[snipey]

Oh right, I have never been to Nottingham; so am looking forward it. In fact that will be my first skeet major after moving over to concentrate on skeet.

 

[Hawkeye]

Where do you usually shoot skeet?

 

[snipey]

My 'local' grounds are southern counties, broadmoor, Brookbank and Gloucester all between 1 or 2 hours to get too. They aren't too bad, looking forward to some better weather and shooting some of the bigger grounds as I'm told the targets are 'different'!

 

[Hawkeye]

Target's differ , background's differ. I find the target's hard to see on some station's at Brookbank and Gloucester , so have to change thing's to compensate

 

[WelshKen]

Couldn't book at all Saturday night after 4 hours of trying, but got on there this morning.

9.20a.m. squad, so got to get up before 4.00a.m. to get there on time for a quick rest before shooting..

All good experience hopefully.. :gamer:

 

[Hawkeye]

what do you mean , rest? You will have been sitting down for 3 hrs driving there. ;

 

[WelshKen]

Driving is stressful when you hate to do it Bryan :spiteful:

Hopefully I'll be a passenger.. reved:

 

[Julesy]

Hey Ken,

If you want to come on Saturday instead to break up the driving then let me know.

If you have a caravan or motor home (or even a tent), you would be very welcome to stay at the ground on sat night. Or we can recommend some local B and Bs

Give me a PM or ring me at the Ground on Mon or Tues

Julia

 

[WelshKen]

Just read your reply Julia, and thank you very much for your kind offer..

If I was going on my own, I would go in my homemade camper van and take up your offer of staying on the ground, but I'm going with a mate and he's booked two rooms at a local B&B..  :nyam:

Very kind of you to offer though...
