Evening all,

Cant believe no one has said what a great shoot windrush was today!! My first time there today lovely weather and some bloody clever targets well done steve enjoyed it and will be back for more..

Couple of stands let me down a white low standard caught me out to start with but found the last two so happy ish...but the bloody teal come missile up the tunnel really stuffed me!!! 3/10 :( still a few straights and managed a 78/100 pleased with that..

Met up with shortlegs and joined stew(sleephollow) and lord sandy(tiptop) and enjoyed good company and a bit fluffy rabbits too..poor old mk was struggling too stay with the three Italian's today... ;)

Thanks for company and well shot lads..

 
Evening butty you bloody beat me to it, good to shoot with you sleepy and lord sandy today you Italian musketeers showed me the way today well shot all of you :yes:  , have to agree with you mate great shoot, great ground with good targets that tested all abilities the targets in the cut coming out in under your feet I think would put pay to quite a few cards.

The two teal there really messed with your head but came off there with a 4/10 :wild:   but then the two pink targets in the field did me as one looked like it was going away but it was really crossing you and only managed to chip two of them as totally misread them .

The white target in the front field fired into the tunnel caught me with the big crosser as I didn't hit the white at all :hunter:   but managed to hit the big crosser to get 5/10. But as you and sleepy said I get in stand blow up the first couple of pairs then seem to loose the plot so will have to work on getting more consistent. Bit disappointed with my score 59/100 :hmm:  as I know I could/should have hit more but there you go onward to the next one as still enjoyed the company and the day !

 
Nice set of targets which is and has been the norm here, with out doubt some of the finest scenery as a back drop ....started like a good-un 2 away over first 7 stds teal in the railway line cost me 3 missed one of the report birds too, balls up the pink crossers,under led and over led, and lost 2 rabbits which took off as I pulled the trigger ! turned in a  91, never checked scores before I left anybody know what did the classes ?

Evening matey thanks , not beating myself up mate just a bit frustrating as I know I can do better, .... really enjoyed the day good to shoot with you to butty looking forward to the next one .... !

First time for me today and 10 out of 10....and a ground to watch I think as lovely banks and tunnels a proper sporting ground... :)
Its a great ground with terrific terrain to throw all types of targets, hope Steve will put more on there, speaking of which forgot to say earlier well done Steve great entertaining shoot thoroughly enjoyed being tested by your targets.

 
Great targets and company again :)

Shot the left hand field first didn't fair to badly there dropping the odd one and two, then over to the right hand field and the cutting.

Didn't find the first pink target on stand one, and dropped a few of the rabbit's on stand two, managed a 4/10 on the teal in the cutting,over lead the first few of the second bird under your feet on stand four.

Good enjoyable shoot from Steve yet again and managed to scratch a 74 so pleased with that. :)

 
Not yet shot Windrush - glad to know that it gets pretty much universally good press. Now on the list :)
Windrush is a gem of a shoot & Steve makes great use of the terrain, if you haven't shot it give it a go today's shoot would of been a great England qualifier shoot good mixture of targets and well set out ☀

I second exactly what you chaps said. Although wasn't on top form, great shoot, great targets and great scenery! Nuff said!
