RBSS Handicap Classic 2013

[Will Hewland]

An annual must-do event for me. Much discussed on the 2012 thread for those that don't know about it (so see that rather than ask the initial questions..)

Starts Jan 14th.

Yep - I shall take a trip down again for this, was a great course last year - unfortunately I picked one of the coldest days of the year to shoot it....brutal.

This is always a interesting shoot,BUT the boys ,and girls at RBS for get that if 1500 people shoot this comp we would like to see more prize places,Eg down to 10th.This is the norm for the Essex Masters so why not here.
So any people comment on the fact each year and still they do nothing.
In hard times like these we would like a little back for all our loyalty.
I'm not bitter,I'm just saying what a lot of people are thinking.

 

[Will Hewland]

Don't disagree, but of course the top 60 get a free shoot and lunch at the final..

Also, to be clear, they have about 1400-1500 'entries'. This contains a few hundred that have multiple attempts. Some do it 20 times. I estimate perhaps 700 discrete entrants? This year, after me badgering them horribly, they will do a website scoreboard with 'sort by headers' so such data will be much easier to discern.

I'm still paying off my loan for coffee & cake there.

 

[Will Hewland]

Anybody here want to meet up for a weekday go at this? Squad of 4 or 5 would be ideal. Bit of brekky or stay for lunch would be good.

 

[ExSCA]

Myself and NickyT are booked on for March 13th in the AM - happy if anyone wants to join us. Please let me know.

 

[Will Hewland]

I may be sick of it by then. ))

 

[ExSCA]

You should be getting it right by then Clever ;-)

But yes - I appreciate you may have shot it before then...  this was just a good date to coordinate with Nick.

 

[Will Hewland]

Ill probably be there, if there is space! Will suss the diary and the weather nearer the time..

I might shoot it in the PM as well; depending how the morning goes

 

[TobyM]

Should this be in "reviews" if it hasn't taken place yet? Missed it last year so will try harder to make it this year.

 

[Will Hewland]

I promise to review it before long; thus transforming the validity of the placement. )
