You will love it. Like being served a fillet steak and all the trimmings when all you have had so far is dry biscuits.

 
But seriously, I have a very nice 32inch 686 sporter you are more than welcome to borrow. It even has screw-in chokes!! Whatever they are?

Greg........please do not encourage him!!!! It's bad enough that he is even going to do it, before we know it he will be shoving posts up asking which is the best auto to buy to shoot it. This is a sad moment in the history of trap as far as I'm concerned, my old mucker, a dedicated tarpie.......shooting sporting!!!! This comes on top of all that "I like everyone and everything" and "I will be polite" rubbish we had from him a few weeks back. I told him not to switch brands of single malt or medication before the end of the season, but it seems as though he has done just that! This latest move is just a step too far as  far as I'm concerned, trap shooting has lost a great shot and a real character......RIP trap shooter ips.  :fie:

Don't be sad Les. It's just a mid-life crisis! Old Ips will be back soon when the medication kicks in.  :spiteful:

Before we know it he will be wearing wellies and bloody camo gear!  The new medication and new single malt are doing him no favours at all from where I'm sitting!  He is also going to use one of his lovely trap guns to wade around in the muck too, that is just not on!!! If he keeps this up he will not be going to the great trap layout in the sky.......EVER!!!!!  :laugh:

One day I will restore the equilibrium in the universe by giving you a call to come and shoot some Trap before Southern Counties closes.

Will that make me some sort of Shooting Transvestite though??  :sarcastic:

Well you could come over to SC a week next Sunday, it's the Dorset OT championships, but you don't have to live in Dorset to shoot it. Have you shot much trap? OT is a fantastic discipline, I was told many years ago that you have to be either gifted or insane to want to shoot it......and I'm not gifted! You either get hooked on OT or you walk away never to return, unfortunately most walk away never to return!!!! :laugh:

I'm off to Mulliners to play with some guns this afternoon, then off to the pub to do some quality control. !!!!

Les,

Do not panic. Wait until he has been clocked around the ear by someones gun, slung around their neck. Dived for cover when some plonker is waving his gun around, in an effort to eject empties into the bin. Dived under the table during breakfast when someone enters the clubhouse with a closed gun, "just looking for the gun rack" Then got mud all over his AuntyNelly skeet vest. Rain down his neck, dodged bits of incoming clay, sprayed with falling shot, his gun stock dinged by yet another unslipped gun, is suffering a headache through thinking about shot size, which choke, pick up point, hold point, break point and even bloody compass points. Has seen more auto's than he even imagined existed, no ribs, high ribs, low ribs, mid ribs and even BBQ ribs......................................Nah, he WILL be back, no probs !

 
That is really selling it too me Wes me old mate :)

 
Also Ips don't worry if you are first up to see the pair and you look around to see a group of shooters all pointing into the sky, they haven't seen a UFO they are just trying to follow the trajectory of the clay. I sometimes pretend I know what I'm doing and point thusly.

 
I'm looking forward to a comprehensive stand by stand report with photos, now that should make for entertaining reading. :rolleyes:

" thats when the fight started "

 
Me too SimonB. I think Ben W should record it on video for posterity.

 
Thanks Sian for explaining all of that finger pointing stuff. I can stop studying the Saturday Night Fever vids. now. Had visions of 'chucking me skeet vest inter crowd'.

I sometimes tempted too!

 
You should be ashamed of yourself! Even thinking about such an escapade is trap treason!!!!
I am only doing it to prove that trappies can shoot stuff going sideways and coming towards, or more likely prove that we cannot, either way it looks jolly good fun and I am looking fwd to it. Will have mrs ips as official trappie tries sporting paperazi. I will of course be taking it very seriously (well a bit) as that is my nature. My aim is not to be last. Gulp.

 
We really ought to organise a Trappies verses Sporters competition over a multi discipline event.    :spiteful:

We should leave out the Skeet guys as they are neither "fish nor fowl" of course. (Only joking guys!!)  :sarcastic:

The only dilemma we would face is where do you put Richard F as he has a firm foot in both camps?    :fie:    Perhaps he would like to host the event so he can laugh at our endeavours!
