Hi Wynno, OK Steve was a bit harsh but he and Will do have a point.Â
I say to all those who speak of soft shoots (which are a fact of life) just get over it and accept the fact there are also tough shoots, it all averages out which is the whole point. It is quite literally impossible for ALL course setters to ALWAYS get it 100% right and always manage to put on shoots that EVERYONE acknowledges as the CORRECT balance between challenging and fair.Â
Why is it we rarely hear moans when a shoot produces a 92Â HG ? I'll tell you why, because nobody wants to be the guy who says something was too tough. Too "soft" means nothing as you've still got to prove your mettle and beat others in your class, those who manage to fill their boots on the "easy" stuff will get the high scores they deserve.Â
Yesterday I shot a 95 and thought top 3 was in the bag, ten minutes later James Bradley-Day slaughters it with 98, then a 13 year old blasts in a 96, was it easy ? I will pay to watch most AA's get a 96 there, sh*t happens.Â
