Count me out boys.....I always get far to issd and would end up in The Pool after you barstewards put my on a wrong train....just saying....!!!

 
What about a midweek shoot at a convenient ground? I regularly shoot with friends midweek at our local ground and have noticed several other groups of shooters doing the same thing. Midweek the ground is quiet and you can shoot at your own pace and have the choice of any stand or discipline. The cafe is also quiet leaving space and time for a chat over a cup of tea or coffee. You can shoot for practice or be competitive as required.It seems to be sustainable as I see the same groups come week after week.

 
Oakedge, Wednesday afternoons, then dinner at the Wolseley Arms or Milford?

 
I like that idea - I'd be happy to invest in a day off work to come up and join some peeps... needs to be a decent dinner it for me though!

Afternoons arnt enough time needs to be start at 10.30. Shoot a lot. Spot of lunch. Shoot a lot more till dark. Spot of dinner with good company and conversation all about shooting. Home

Sounds like a good day out and worth while for people traveling.

I go to sleep shooting practice. To make it fun with mates, I have had a side bet on who can perform best, relative to their CPSA average. Very fair; good fun, keeps you awake!

 
Maxum,

An excellent idea. Oakedge 11am start, 100 Sporting or 150, Pastie or Pie lunch, 50 Compact. Dinner at the Wolseley.

I will gladly make all the arrangements if there are enough interested.

Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuullllll

 
Due to overwhelming demand by a Lady with a paraplegic stock, whilst we are having our pasties & pies, there will be a 1000 DTL set up on the Compact layout ( yes I did say 1,000 DTL) to enable Maxum to get his recoil fix.

Compak.........just saying (from the old dear who knows her FITASC and is picky about it :.: :.: :.: )

 
Whenever there is a demand for it. I don't mind organising it but I will not organise your diaries for you.

Compact:- Having parts or units closely packaged or joined. As in having traps and flight lines closely arranged to simulate a Sporting Clay Course.

Compak a nonsenical name thought up by French bureaucrats. ( Sorry just a bit picky about FITASC from an old boy who hates interference from FROGS) (Mrs. ADMIN apologies)

Inventing disciplines now Salop :) :)

 
Nic,

I would have thought that my 'invention' was more sensible than the Frogs description.

Oakedge doesn't have to be a Wednesday job. Only day that it can't be is a Monday.

But realistically teepee, would you venture from deepest 'ampshire? Can't even get them interested from the West Midlands.

The problem with socialising is it normally involves drinking and guns , alcohol and driving just don't mix.

 
I'll go anywhere if it involves shooting clays, Salopian! :cool:

And I like to see new grounds.

And I don't drink anyway, although I do eat a lot...!

And it would be nice to meet a few more guys from here, names to faces etc.

So if it pans out to everyone's satisfaction, I'm in! :D
