Helice,, zz,

[no.1topdog]

I can see the "Shootclay International Helice Shooting (at) Competition" being the biggest Helice competition in the world if all interested parties on here turn up and shoot.  :biggrin:

Should take about 4 days to get everybody through to shoot their 20 targets? 5 per day each, not bad?? Lot of waiting around though.

Pity there's not a ring in the South West as I'd love to shoot it again. I played with it once at West Kent when I lived in Maidstone. Opportunity lost again!!!

Pity there's not more shoots in the South West generally. As we have the highest number of shotgun certificates issued, and a relatively large percentage of unpopulated ground you would think there would be a market here?  :fie:

You don't know much about Helice do you dog?? :laugh:

Well, No to be fair.

It just seems to be a drawn out affair when compared to English Sporting.

Quality or quantity, it's all choices.........  :biggrin:

How many entrants do they get in the largest competitions abroad out of interest? 

 

[Bryn12]

Could have home nations/counties teams :biggrin:

Mrs Bryn would have to choose between shooting for Scotland or England/Notts

I was going to put some text below but something is stopping me I have no idea what it is some kind of self sensoring I imagine.

Right you lot.

I've been talking with John Nightingale at Rugby and he has responded that he is more than willing to host a 'ZZ Try it' day for Shootclay forum members. He has also advised that he is willing to drop the target price a £1 each and will also be hand to offer advice on how hit the little blitters. Might even be able to put some ABT/UT on at the same time to fill the time.

Saturday or Sundays available (subject to regular competition dates ) so lets come up with a date and some numbers. I will see John on Sunday and get some dates then.

So who's coming?

Awesome I will 100% be there.

DogTyred - I'd be up for a trip to Rugby if I'm around.
Do you want to make this the "official" ShootClay Hélice day, or are you (and others here) open to the idea of a second day at A1 next spring?
I'm happy to try to set up the A1 day if there are takers.

Just bingled this....wish I hadn't.........

My Northern sense of humour maybe not to everyone's taste...sorry

What chokes and carts are best for this. Reading somewhere that anything over 7s is to much.

 

[Jaykaysea]

About 3 and a half hours for me so would want to combine with a Registered somewhere nearby to make it worth the trip. Let me know a date...am happy to do both if it's fun...and I am any good....

Heh, hope I didn't offend...probably worth trying at least once I thought

 

[Bryn12]

£850.....cheaper to buy someone a few pints....and it's probably not something you would be able to borrow off a friend........

TBH had never even heard of one...every day is a school day...

Cheaper to buy a wonky washing machine and sit on it. 

 

[Rosso]

Or a WONKO washing machine even.
