And Kent came second to Oxfordshire who beat us by 10 points!! Well done to all of our team.Well shot both of you , when all the dust has settled I'd be keen to find out how many of those who found it easy won their class.
hammy, i think you need to visit some other grounds if you thought this was on the medium to firm sideThis isn't going to be a stand by stand break down but just to say myself and a friend shot this today and whoever set the targets up did a grand job.
We were expecting to see just a dozen cars there being Saturday but it was packed without having tedious waits and had quite a good atmosphere, 14 stands in all with maybe no more than 3 of them steady and the rest all on the medium to firm side with lots of speed, edge on crossers, good loopers, fair rabbits, fair window pairs and next to nothing outside half choke capability. Thoroughly enjoyable and very well set I thought, the only drawback was the entry fee of £41 which I think is getting on the steep side a bit and that horrid track of theirs.
I'm kind of glad I don't live 20 minutes away because that is a car breaker if you do it every week. :mellow:
Plenty of AA's shot 90 ish or less but I have no doubt someone like yourself can hit them regularly at 75 yards, but this was good enough for me.hammy, i think you need to visit some other grounds if you thought this was on the medium to firm side
10 targets above cpsa averagePlenty of AA's shot 90 ish or less but I have no doubt someone like yourself can hit them regularly at 75 yards, but this was good enough for me.
I think it's fashionable to knock shoots sometimes and pretend everything is easy these days, funny when their own scores are no different to their own average ! Oh yeah, I forgot, it's the boredom kicking in. What was your score by the way compared to your CPSA average ?
That takes some doing even on an easy round, well done. Mind if I ask your CPSA average and score ? It's just that 10 more sounds a lot, there must be other reasons behind such a vast difference, for instance if you're a B class shot and currently finding form and getting good tuition then things can seem an awful lot easier than before but if you're AA and usually shoot 85 at tough grounds and managed 95 then yes we could safely say this was a lot easier than what you're used to.10 targets above cpsa average
Probably because there were only 30 entries from C class shooters. Whereas there was 122 entries in AA. I imagine most of the C class shooters opted to shoot elsewhere because it was an England selection shoot,and as such would probably be a bit on the stiff side for them.Didn't go so maybe / probably shouldn't comment but the view from this member of the great unwashed in C notes that in this in quite a few eyes was a soft shoot where C class was won with a score of 70?, locally to win C class shoots around here scores are usually over 80! Can anyone who shot this throw any light as to why the C class' shooters found the selection shoot more difficult to build a score than the rest of the entry?
...because all the realy good C class guys were at local shoots!!! B class was won on 91...Didn't go so maybe / probably shouldn't comment but the view from this member of the great unwashed in C notes that in this in quite a few eyes was a soft shoot where C class was won with a score of 70?, locally to win C class shoots around here scores are usually over 80!
