Melanie sykes

[Salopian]

I think it is all a publicity stunt.

I doubt she will make the Commonwealth Games, never mind the Olympics.

Good luck to her if she genuinely enjoys clay and game shooting. Let's see if she is as enthusiastic during the rain in Mid Wales with all eyes on her and birds sailing past unscathed.

What a load of drivel. Who on earth is that article aimed at?

 

[ips]

Exactly. And you will note the excellently practical attire. Can you imagine any woman turning up too shoot dressed like that. Yes i know it was staged and that says it all.

If that is supposed to encourage blokes to get into shooting then there in for a shock. I don't mean that to sound critical of our women shooters as they are all very attractive but dress accordingly.

You get to Commonwealth Games by shooting the required selection shoots....

For OT you have to submit your best 2 from 3 scores.......one of which has to be Beverley in 7/8 th September.

The other two 'WERE' ....

NCSC 25/26th May.......Oooops FAIL..!

Nutty 22/23 June.....Oooops FAIL..!

For Olympic Skeet.....the same...2 from 3.

Doveridge 4/5th May........FAIL

Southern Counties 1/2nd June.........FAIL

Beverley 17/18th August

So........That is that then..!

Goodness me.......do people not know 'how' one gets selected to our National teams....??

 

[ips]

Obviously not.

 

[Salopian]

I would blame her Coach!

They are obviously not getting their priorities correct.  Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

 

[Supercharged]

I blame Des !!

By the way....Well done on your award for 2013 Supercharged.

Why thank you Nicola ! Its nice to get recognition sometimes as its a team effort

the fact that a person or persons become interested in our sport should be applauded not questioned,especially if they can shine a spotlight on it no matter how briefly.

I see many people take up the sport and last maybe a few months then you never see them again, so what if Melanie Sykes is a minor celebrity, so what if she wants to show off her body, so what if she never achieves her stated ambitious goals. The oxygen of publicity she creates for our sport is priceless, she also brings a fresh much needed realighmentof image that our sport badly needs. A working mum of 2 young kids who is modern in her thinking and outlook with the balls to say at the beginning that she wants to compete at the highest level if she can, good luck to her As for appropriate dress sense I have seen her coach Ben Husthwaite shoot at Westfields in flip flops with his toe nails painted with shocking pink nail varnish !!

 Oohh.....she can shoot on my squad any time she likes! I would even let her use an auto if she wanted  and I would not complain about it!

 

[ips]

An AUTO :fie:  

 

[Kasia To Be Fisher]

.. personally ? she is putting me off the sport..

she turns wonderful discipline in the market where you can just look and  get as long as it doesn`t cost a lot...

maybe she has got god intentions but it doesn`t mean the shooting industry should stand on the front paws upfornt of her..

 

[Les53]

An AUTO :fie:  

Oh alright you win Ian.....maybe an auto is taking it a little too far. :laugh:

 

[ips]

I should jolly well think so

I may at a push be able shoot to the right of a scantily clad woman but I draw the line at some things

 

[Les53]

maybe she has got god intentions but it doesn`t mean the shooting industry should stand on the front paws upfornt of her..

I would stand just about any way she asked me to! Maybe I should invite her for a bit of OT down here at SC!!

 

[Dog Tyred]

I'd give the young lady as many lessons as it takes - for FREE. :hunter:

Well, I'd give her one ....at least !!

I'll get my coat

 Well to be honest about it dear, I'm not bothered that she's a celebrity, she just looks good! I have no idea if she shoots well or not.  :wink:
