DTL advice

[chippy]

As I have been coerced into shooting the east-midlands intercountys DTL at the end of the month, I need some advice. I have my skeet choked remmy 1100 and 150 32g clear pigeon shells so that's sorted but when shooting does the ref tell if its a midi or standard or is there a board ? And if the next shooter to me hits a clay do I say" well shot" ? And after shooting stand 5 do I high five all the squad when walking back to stand 1 ? And I need a few topics to talk about between shots how about " I think that clay was 23° to the right " and lastly should I mention ABT is not as good as it used to be.

No wonder DTL entries are dropping. I'am just a newbie to DTL asking a few simple questions and I get called a trouble maker.

PS should I get some blinkers?

The best advice i can give you is" dont do it ".  You will probably never return to sporting .

You could be right, I've heard once the DTL bug bites it never leaves.

Yes it does mate just as soon as you find abt and ot. You will then never be able to shoot dtl without losing the will to live.

Thats an easy one 5mm below your chin :girlcrazy:

Down to the hip if you want to inject any fun into dtl

 

[chippy]

OK so somewhere between the chin to the hip.

DTL. Isn't that the one they shoot over the shoulder using a mirror?

Apparently it makes it interesting that way? Might be worth a try?
