hey peter i reckon then we had a monster of a fish on but just before we landed it a big HERON came and nicked it off the hook !!!!!!!
nicola darling a target is a target whether it be a clay at 150 foot or a pheasant at 150 foot , target both of em , i bet i could chuck a curling clay that resembles a bird all you need is the equipment , terrain and ho yes the know how !!!!
shall we meet up and shoot this one day then ????
dont know where the 15 came from i shot a grand score of 5 in the final
wonder how these top game shooters will cope with my fitasc this week , you can only set proper fitasc targets when you have shot proper fitasc targets and i suspect a few havent , . ,,,,
Hey ...Steve...get chip of shoulder lad.
the 15 was reference to pages this will run to.....
And ....I would never have mentioned how shooting under pressure can affect a score.... :wink: but i know that the 5 will be etched in your memory banks forever :laugh:
In my honest opinion a course setter can only replicate extreme live quarry into a clever clay target if and only if they have...
1. seen plenty of them
2. shot plenty of them .....loads of times...over the years.. so that they know what the characteristics are (and how these extreme phessies work ...which is different each time). then and only then do you understand how to put them onto a clay line.......and that my dear ...could be why people hit them one day and dont the rest of the time.
Great game shots are made over years and years of experience and having the luck or the money to get onto the really good stuff.......great clay shots are made the same way, years of experience....but......... the two types (in my opinion) are only found together in the very special few :wink:
That .....and..... the mental pressure of shooting with a chance of a flash car...knowing you can only miss two.
Have another go this year matey......Like i am doing.....and hopefully we will not have the Epic Fail that we had last year. I only shot it once and needed medication.
Nothing is easy until it is smashed to bits.
Just my opinion of course....you are welcome to your own...but no need to get bitchy about it :wink: (catching a Heron)...or am i not allowed to express an opinion in your world....hey ho...I can live with that.
I am always surprised at you in your 'feeling threatened mode'...it is so gay .
