Well shot that man

 
Cheers guys! I'm not really fussed about the money, I'm sure there are some bigger sandbaggers than me out there! I'm just happy that I've shot well, I've been so pi$$ed off the last few weekends; having messed up the first 2 county sporting selections!

Snipey, did you hit the right to left crosser off the cherry-picker (rabbit was on report)? Stand 4 IIRC

That was one of the stands I didn't get to grips with just a 3 on that, but I'd been out for 3 hours at that point and 1300 squads were jumping in so I'd lost a little interest by then!

Well shot snipey,winning C class by 7 clays
 
thought the shoot was pretty good

i think its set up to reach your average - dropped 12-16 left to right looping crossers - other than that i was pleased with how i shot

we had a bit of delay and quite a few no birds which was a bit distracting. i think we got round in 3 and a bit hours which is about my limit for 100 bird sporting

really enjoyed the company and some very good shots, i think young Jake hit an 82 which he was dissapointed with :huh:

overall because we shot it friday i think we got away with not too many hold ups - this was my third big comp and although i had a good day out im not sure the extra cost was worth it

 
just seen my score at least im not last, have me listed as targets only which i dont remember booking under, maybe because my classification hasnt come through yet.

on a side note I thought the Shootclay Banners were awesome :D

 
Steve Clarke winning on 92 (Stuart shot 90).

Dissapointed to hear it's down the lane; was hoping it would be in the valley... As it's not, keep your eyes on Cheryl and George- good bit of home ground knowledge should help!

thought those 2 were over sea's shooting compak ??? will they get back in time !!!

 
Ok, so it's 15 stands and they're all down the "lane" on either side. We (GavB) started on stand 10 and finished on 9

Lots of 3 pair stands which I don't know if I like or dislike. A few rangey ones which I can't hit at the best of times and no surprise I still can't hit them.

I liked our squad. Father and son and the son, Jake, is one to watch. Must be about 12/13 I guess and lovely shooting action, very little gun movement, shot an 84 I think and made it look like shelling peas.

Can't remember all of the other's names. Roy (Cherry?) from Oxford, another very good shot. He reckons a mid-90s should win it

Jake is a bit older than that, I think he's 17 this june :) he's a cracking shot but up there with the juniors now so 82 would of disappointed him as phil and harry are still in juniors till next year and I think Nathan skinner is going up to juniors any time now and I would imagine they will shoot well, I'm not sure if that will be enough, he does look a tad younger tho :)

If you scroll down on the day one results link I assume all those names are the people entered? If so, it dosn't look like George or Cheryl will be there........
