Thanks Doug, will try 

First time at WMSG, excellent venue, weather was tops, warm, no wind and hardly a cloud in sky lots of sun but no target affected by it anywhere.

Start time was 12.54, we started ar 12.45 and bar a few no birds, just 1 battery change and short wait for re-loading the monster lift went without a hiccup all done in a sedate 3 hours. 

This chap had a slow first two stands then shot next five, the type of which usually egg my face as well as Ive shot anywhere recently, even a welcome  on St7 a big driven pair a 7/8 was just begining to think it was going rather well then wheel(s) fell off, again l-r targets my downfall. A habit then of pair dead,  pair dead, pair lost, loss - kill stands, odd and cant explain it. I did benefit though on one stand where an eagle eyed ref saw some very small chips off a clay or three, will take them. 

The already infamous st15 dropper from tower I found once, its teal not at all, so a damp squid end, 78 which is 65%, cant be dissapointed as Ive recently shot a lot lot worse than today and was really pleased with myself on a number of stands.

Do all enjoy your day, WMSG really have put on a great event

oh twitters amongst you theyve gone an put out an image of me, & having just seen Day1 scores on CPSA web theyve used same image Im a star, dull one yes but a star

Good report Richie and well shot. Looks like stand 15 has took its toll on many.

I assume your Perazzi choke combo was enough for the whole course? It appears we may get a wet shirt on Sunday now looking at Hodnet on BBC weather. Hopefully it will hold dry all week.

Perazzi MX2000S 30” choked 3/8 & 3/8 used 12 F3 Bior, 70 F3 Piston & 38 F3, I didnt miss due to choke nor wrong cartridge, I missed because Im simply not good enough on some and a very big on even more

You all enjoy, its a very good shoot

Well done Rich and good report  :thumbsup:

Its a new trap that throws a clay striaght down from a cherry picker,then on report is a going away teal thats tasty.

 

[Turkey]

Is it edgy or big distance?

 

[paul b]

No but its fast and seems to get faster as it gets lower,i got lucky on one somehow but no idea to be honest.Last time a saw that target was 20 years ago but that had a cliff behind it so you could spot shoot it using reference point's behind but this only has sky behind.

Edit, ps ,forgot to say its going a bit right to left so its easy to pull off line aswell.

Another edit the above is the way i read it others may well read it completely different.
