:fie: Nic, do you think that you can get an audience with the "Don" Monsuir Palankas this week to clarify all conditions regarding this shoot to end all speculation?

Cyril. If you want to know about this shoot you need to contact the Arabs as they are the ones owning and running it.

Well JM0911, It doese'nt look good at the moment! :fie: I do all the entries for 4 of us for overseas Fitasc shoots.
Thats me, Jamesy, Turv and the "smurf, Jamesy and the smurf have cried off because of the lack of info on this shoot ! opting for the "World" in Portugal because they have shot Portugal 3/4 times at different venues and all were exellant!
Turv is in limbo at the moment as he has just had a 5 week break in Oz and cannot make up his mind again as there are no details on this shoot?
That leaves me, I will not bother to go on my todd! :fie:

Shame
Its worth taking the risk, I know lots that are.
I've had phone calls and emails that give no doubts about the shoot.
It's in its first year so wouldn't expect the slick booking and information flow that we are used to from Fitasc.

Yes Jem, I agree with you but look back at the Russian shoots when they joined Fitasc! good prizes at the time, reasonable information on the shoot but with problems like high end guns missing betwen London and Moscow? a shooter was accused in a public toilet of "soliciting"! 2"secret police" and given the option of a $50.00 "fine" to each of them or being hauled to the nick! Now vertually no one goes there?
just saying.

@shootinguru - What details do you need?
I've seen loads - all over the website, facebook and even here..
What specifically is missing that would make you comfortable to book this?

Ok folks..... i have made the call...here are the facts...!
1) UAE is 'not' a current member of FITASC (as of today's date 13/1/14 at 1pm). Fitasc are happy to consider any application being made by UAE.
2) This situation may change within the next 7 days I understand that Dubai want to play this game using the Fitasc sporting rules.....but it has also been explained to those concerned, that only member states of Fitasc can do that..... (but until the signatures are on the documents....I can add no more).
3) And this sweeties......is why you all have to be patient and wait because this is a work in progress.......The application to be made then considered.
What ever path the UAE choose....I am sure it will be a fantastic event.

If i was in to sporting....i would have no problem booking this.
But peeps.....for those that have not been to Arabs countries before....please adhere to earlier advice given on here. You do not get into arguments or show strops if you are not dealt with on UK time at the airport.....sometimes one person gets through without problems and sometimes they do not....but one thing is sure......you need your 'Sunday Manners' the whole time you are there. They will not tolerate any ianapa pissed up Brit behaviour......just saying.

I think if you want to know more about the actual shoot then i suggest that you email any questions to the email addresses given. Only Dubai can tell you about the shoot.
You asked me if UAE was a member of Fitasc. I made the call....the answer is no.
But in another 7 days it may well be yes. I will let you know when i know.

Just come off the phone to Steve Scott.
He is promoting the shoot here in the UK
I am after my invitation letter earlier than published and he is helping me with that.
There isn't anything untoward with the shoot.
Its Gun up 'Fitasc style' now what that means I am not sure but to be honest I don't really care.
Steve mentioned that one of the main organisor was a 'Janus' from Cyprus, anyone know him?

:fie: Shoot Clay admin, I read the two "information" websites that tell me nothing about the shoot! e.g new system? number of parcours?
number of pegs per parcour? terrain? any parcours shot on trap or skeet layouts? nada! nothing Zilch!
Jem, Steve Scott ain't doing a very good job at promoting this shoot! Yes I know of Janus or Yanis as Greeks say he is allegedly setting the targets but Cyprus has the best terrain in the world to sett Fitasc targets with all its natural gullies, hillocks etc., a blind man could sett targets there! I also hear that Costas and 2 of the Cypriot referees are there? 4 men don't make a GREAT shoot maybe 50 experienced guys could do so?
Remember the old term "You only get one chance to make a first immpression"!
