We had much the same, a few bits of snow, a few drops of rain, some bloody hail storms, at times it was sunny, at times it was almost as dark as night, we also had gusts of force 5 to 6 according to the weather people. It was without doubt the hardest shoot of my entire life!!!!Cos that's what we had, and you think you had it tough Les !!
I wasn't going to mention that!!! OR the prize money!!!! :biggrin:LES, LETS HAVE A PICCY OF YOUR CUP!!!!!
:drag: Cheers Fred, a pretty good description I guess! Now everyone is going to comment on the bloody gloves I suppose! It was nice to meet you too mate, you looked exactly as I thought you would. Very down to earth, dry sense of humour and very wise! AND a bloody great trap shooter too!!!!Les' path and mine crossed for the first time yesterday - it was good to meet him after all this time. He takes his trap shooting seriously and I spotted him shooting first - a 21 in the worst of the conditions at Southern Counties. DT11 check, castilani vest and hat check, glasses with RedShot blinders check, gloves [white!] check. Must be him. Rolls funny baccy into Rizla papers, laconic outlook on life. Check.
Well, now you mention it....... :mosking:Now everyone is going to comment on the bloody gloves I suppose!
Oh that's it.....Fred and Garry have dropped me right in it now!!!! :laugh:white gloves !
You are a dandy my old mate
What's this about cash and trophy, spill.
Greg I bloody knew this would happen!!!! I have worn golf gloves for many years now and they are most commonly found in white for some reason! I could probably order black ones, but I normally get the things in the sales when they are cheaper, so not much choice!Well, now you mention it....... :mosking:

When I had my last MX8 I made the mistake of using some of that horrible Perazzi grease they give you with the gun. It's a sort of graphite grease by the look of it, anyway I got a bit of it on the gloves I had at the time, what a bloody mess!!! White gloves and dark grey grease do not go well together! :fie:Listen mate you don't need to justify your taste in posh clothing to us if you want to wear wine waiters gloves that's entirely up to you
Chill out Les. I too wear golf gloves when shooting............................................................just not white ones. :sarcastic:Greg I bloody knew this would happen!!!!

I tried those MacWet things, didn't like the things and golf gloves are half the price! Here is a pic showing the WHITE gloves! :laugh:Chill out Les. I too wear golf gloves when shooting............................................................just not white ones. :sarcastic:
I know what you mean though. Why do golfists seem to like white gloves? I have tried to find a pair of plain black leather golf gloves for ages but they are very rare.
I've been using a pair of Under Armour all weather gloves for a year but they are wearing out. Haven't found a decent replacement yet.
And before anyone comes back with MacWets...no thanks.

Footjoy gloves are really nice, but I've not managed to find any that aren't white.I've been using a pair of Under Armour all weather gloves for a year but they are wearing out. Haven't found a decent replacement yet.

But they're not breathable and they are a bit like wellies for the hands.......so they should be good for the hedge monkeys! :laugh:What about marigolds, waterproof good grip and available in a vast array of colours.
Suits you sir.
Dunno really Ian, it won't hold much beer I know that much! Maybe it's for wine or something!Ooh nice. What's it for mate ?
