Fitasc or not Fitasc!

[Darkside]

ips and Les53...now I'm now being nasty, unfriendly, or anything else, but...what have posts #11 #12 #13 #14 got to do with FITASC? You pair have a nack of draging every post off topic talking a load of pish like a pair of old women (sorry old women) Any chance you two could swap phone no's so as the rest of us don't have to read drivel about pie's, motor home's, crap jokes or any other "Jack and Victor" patter...just saying!!!

proper shooting(well as close as you will get with clays),and a full day out with nice folk.

 

[Darkside]

You'll need deep pockets as well, around £45 per 100, or so I heard.

Look at it this way...without being held up, I can shoot 100 ESP in 1-1.5 hours, 100 FITASC takes most of the day. Even with 14 stands 100ESP is still only 28 target presentations, FITASC is normaly 40+ target presentations (you could argue 100 unique target combinations) so I would argue FITASC is good value!!!

 

[Les53]

And mine Les, although I have tried it once, and really enjoyed it.

Costs a fortune to set up with all the traps and the labour needed, thus the high price.

I will stick with OT !

And back to FITASC.......it's bloody great! Very sociable, some tough targets, but as Bob said, when you watch the boomers break, there ain't nuthin' like it!

Get out there and play, you won't regret it.

Still dont really understand the difference i take it that its just a harder discipline than bog std sporting ?

 

[Will Hewland]

Tempted to say 'shut yer trap' )))))

Yes it is. Like normal sporting but with your laces tied together.

 

[ExSCA]

No its not - its not just 'harder' - let me summarise the differences as I see it:

• More & different presentations / I like the 4 or 5 singles followed by two doubles
  
• Less impact from a 'bogey' target
  
• A little bit of a memory game for remembering 4 or 5 targets before you step in the hoop
  
• More use of footwork
  
• Gun Down - although I think that's a red herring to scare newbies off
  
• Most importantly - I think its more of a social sport than ESP where the aim seems to be get round as quickly as possible. With FSP you spend the day with a squad of interesting people, bonus if they are your friends.
  

 

[ips]

Thanks, but to be honest as a die hard trappie this is difficult for me to get my head round so i better give up trying.

 

[ExSCA]

What bit isn't clear to you?

 

[EdSolomons]

Shooting in front of something!

 

[ExSCA]

To be fair - I'm a fan, and I get that wrong sometimes ;-)

 

[ianmaney]

I actually like the off topic fluffy rabbits, I love pies, not so keen on motor homes, but crap jokes I love, so if you guys want to talk about it you go for it, it's your forum too !!

Anyway, back to FITASC before I get told off!

It's not the easiest and you have to be damn quick on some traps or they'll be gone before you've seen them.

Don't buy the best cartridges because you'll go through them at an alarming pace with full use of gun on the singles.

And most of all, don't be too upset if your scores the worst you've had in ages, it happens!!!

And anything I've said here was not mean to offend anyone, so don't jump on me, it's called fluffy rabbits ................. Just saying !

Cheers les, currently packing the motor home off at 5pm

dont worry about me pal, i have packed me spam

"What"Spam Spam Spam Spam wonderful Spam?

 

[** Pending Removal **]

Just thought I would ask the question! To try Fitasc or not? What are your thoughts on the matter?

First Jason you would have to say which FITASC discipline you are talking about.....?

UT

Sporting

Helice (the hardest of all of them)

Compak

Combined Game Shooting.

You cannot refer to just 'FITASC' as it does not mean anything.

.....true story..!!
