[Kingplinker]

Well I just hope my little rangefinder ( I call it Jack btw ) works properly - I press a small button on his nugget and he blurts out ' 27.5 yards Dave ' , problem is that's for every target and not very useful at all :eek::eek::eek:

atvb

Dave

[biggles]

note to self ..... when planning/setting course, make certain that NO target is at 27.5 yards

Biggles :D

[cackhandeddan]

[biggles]

i will measure targets and charge £1,oo a peg:D:D

Just make sure you get the money from them before you give them the measurement or they take the shot :)

Soon as they've handed it over you can tell them .... "yup - that one's 158mm from its ear to its tail" :p;)

We could borrow carp mats from the anglers. From what I've observed, they won't be using them anyway .............

................ that's the beauty of shooting toy guns, transcends all and qualifies one to remark on other sports ............ you should hear what some have to say on football.

Do Dock leaves keep in a cool bag? I may bring my own.

So apart from nettles, grass that could be taller than me (if it hasn't been mown for a while, it's possible), possible weather considerations (to goretex or not to goretex, that is the question), should i use my new S400 (ordered today) or stick with my S200 which finally showed it's love for me last Sunday, is there anything else i should concern/worry myself with?:rolleyes:

The current Metcheck forecast (http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/dayforecast.asp?zipcode=Lewes&day=5) suggest you may well need the goretex, both for nettle protection AND dampness :rolleyes:

Ahh, come on, can't you turn the sprinkler system off just for once (and the wind machine while you're at it):D.

At least these chaps (http://www.diggerhistory.info/images/recruits/barbed-wire-breach.jpg) have thought of a way of dealing with nettles. Now who will volunteer?:D

Complete and utter twaddle brother hobbit.
Brother MunchMatt from the very far downs, never suffers from such delusions of grandeur.
'tis not the quantity required for acclaim, 'tis the quality, therefore you are very much mistaken.
Three score matters nought, 'tis a clear score that one ought.
A timely reminder ..............

The Bluebell Wood.

In the shire, there is a wood,
A leafy dell, where Hobbits shoot,
When all about is wild and wet,
The Buxted wood is better kept,




A magic place, serene, sublime,
The hallowed haunt of fifty-nine,
One by one, step up the best,
Yet none so far, have passed the test,




A spell long cast in days of old,
To thwart the brave, the strong, the bold,
Words abound and deeds are few,
The three score waits, a champion true,




Will it be me?
Perchance 'tis you.





AGM.2008

arf!

lets have no more of this poppycock and balderdash.

[swallows las]

in a field their is a group,
a grassey dell where swallows shoot,
when all about is wild and wet,
the swallows grass is better kept.

in a field amongst the poop,
you'll find the place where swallows shoot,
where nettles grow without restraint,
the swallows shoot without complaint.


A dreadful place, should there be rain,
And yet you all, came back again,
One by one, we'll stop to shoot,
Amid the nettles and piles of poop,


So guard yourself against the rain,
Against the nettles, they're such a pain,
Enjoy the day and shoot 'til lunch,

Will be off up to the field today to set out the course. This little bit of light rain is useful - prepares the ground for extreme nettle growth as soon as the sun comes out, while retaining a level of dampness sufficient for added discomfort :p

Please DO bring your mats (including the one in London).

Fret not young Buxtedeer. Beth's message failed to reveal that they too managed just a singleton - and that Arnold (:rolleyes:) was perhaps 3-4 months old.

However, in her and the rest of the Hughes' army defence, I'm not too surprised that this was all the bunnies the shot - as there was Beth, her three brothers, her Mum, her Dad, plus two other very young kids and a spotty dog in tow. Wityh that bunch 'creeping' around, I'm a tad surprised that even the juvenile Arnold (:rolleyes:) decided to come out to play.

[biggles]

Bit late in the evening to be posting this, but I know there's always a few of you mad SIHFTers who are either insomniacs or peep in here first thing in the morning before the drive over to Swallows' halcion field.

As beth posted earlier, the course is set. Just hope the rabbits/squirrels dont go chewing their way through strings overnight.

Reckon this our best yet, with a surprise or two to catch out the unwary - specially if there's any breeze ;)

We've been a-strimming (until the engine broke), but I'd remind ALL of you who have shooting mats (or just a spare bit of carpet - Wilton only, please :p) to bring them on over.

And a final reminder - mentioned in the original comp thread in the banter-free zone - that we share the site with people fishing who are more highly valued by our landlord than us lot - and especially you lot !! :)

While not expecting Sunday Church-goer standards of control and reverential silence, I am very aware that it's difficult to avoid hooting with raucus laughter if your partner gathers doughnuts, or if they 2-point the wrong target. However we'd really appreciate tomorrow if you would keep this form of celebration to a muffled snigger :)

..... please do keep noise to a minimum.

Look forward to seeing ya'll in about 9 hours from now.

Very grateful for your enthusiastic help with setting the course today. Pretty darn good for a member who only joined the Swallows FTC 'gang' a fortnight ago. Hope it helped you understand this wiered and wonderful game we know as HFT.

[simmmo]

I would just like to say a big thank you to all at Swallows for a fantastic day. The course was perfect. All those responsible in hacking out the woodland wilderness to make the lanes and target positions there deserve a big pat on the back for all their hard work. In what was undoubtably a mammoth task with the water and thick vegetation to contend with.

Can't wait till the next visit.

well well done to the swallows and all who set it out and arranged it.

instead we had a perfect day

11 out of 10 for the course is appreciated and about right ;); certainly reflects the effort put in by Swallows FTC members (who know who you are guy, galls and lads & las :D). Was REALLY pleased that we managed to keep the Wooded element a fab secret from you all.

Don't think there were any burgers, were there. I'd be the last to know as I had no chance of a look in at ANY of today's catering specialities. Doh :(

Biggles

[MojoCrow]

Now that i've woken up (don't even remember falling asleep:)), i'd like to thank Swallows for an excellent day. I'm still amused by my ability to get stung at my first peg when i went prone....... What a perfect start!:D

Excellent company and an enjoyable woodland addition to the course (especially when a string is pulled and ducks emerge:D).

Bring on the next shoot!

Coming from you, Sir Matt, that almost brings a tear to my eye.

It makes all the hard work worthwhile. There was heartache en route, especially when, half way through our prep of the wood - in the area of lanes 1-7 - our friendly farmer decided we needed some help. He sent in his troops with a himax and ripped out several trees and burried the banks in thick mud dredged form the bottom of the ditch :mad:. Nearly gave up at that point , but I'm very glad we didn't :)

Thanks for the thanks, Jon. Appreciated.

If you hadn't picked up on this, the frequent references to our nettle jungle was part of our trickery/deception, to keep those who have only known Swallows FTC (on our current site) firmly in the belief that the open field was all we had (true until a couple of months ago) - while at the same time encouraging peops to bring mats or at least wear sensible clothing due to the rather rough ground and nettles in the wood section.

Very pleased to hear of the excellent results for you and Spencer today.

well done Buxted for taking the top slot!
Infact well done all the juniors, especially our very own Spencer who practices like shooting is going out of fashion!...great result!

Would like to do a couple of evenings with the juniors, practising 'Off the deck' and 'off the peg' shooting, with maybe a bit of zeroing / friendly comp thrown in!
If any of The juniors parents wants to get in touch...feel free, maybe we can sort something!:D

Thankyou everyone!:D:D

Thank Andy - and Meerkat too (wish you'd change your BBS handle - keep's reminding me of that bl**dy advert, which is driving me mad :p).

Cannot imagine Swallows ever having previously received such accolades. Not that we don't deserve it (;)), but it does help hugely to know that the effort was well regarded by YOU LOT.

Makes me want to do it all over again (but maybe not tomorrow :cool:).

As for your (Meerkat) comment about reaction from the fishermen .... only time will tell. You did all (bar one brief outburst of uncontrollable histeria I heard on the woods course) behave exceptionally well. So .... fingers crossed :)

just popping out to try my new rifle, while i send my Daystate back again!..:rolleyes:...Getting a new trigger finger fitted to it!...Great they are, mine is anodised but they come in all colours, Set them to pull the trigger at the right time...Jobs a good'un!;):D

swallows almost certainly put more into their hosting then any other club!!
Well done..Sleep well.

Dan The Man (http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/09_03/dancowpieDM1609_468x379.jpg), cheers for your sponducious company...you are a credit to the human race fella.

well done Buxted for taking the top slot!
Infact well done all the juniors, especially our very own Spencer who practices like shooting is going out of fashion!...great result!

Would like to do a couple of evenings with the juniors, practising 'Off the deck' and 'off the peg' shooting, with maybe a bit of zeroing / friendly comp thrown in!
If any of The juniors parents wants to get in touch...feel free, maybe we can sort something!:D

Thankyou everyone!
Spongerinamissalotamus!

...... even when i'm a grumpy ol' ####### :D

When are you not ? :)

Well shot today Steve. Perhaps I'll catch you up when I get to grips with this Big Game Mentality thing .. and REALLY check my own zero properly :o. Only put three rounds through my dear ol'd S400 this morning, and it seemed to be vaguely shooting in the right direction. OK ... may have been a tad high; but what's a half inch between friends when your so knackered you've almost lost the plot :)

Thought i was fairly happy today for me, i must have been my face & head hurt, must have been smiling :D
Oh & it's big game temperament Mr B ;)

I'm still amused by my ability to get stung at my first peg when i went prone....... What a perfect start!:D
(especially when a string is pulled and ducks emerge:D).


that was a classic nettle job:eek: and those ducks really were a surprise just when the string was pulled thought for a split second it was a target that popped out of the water :D
thanks for great company
see you in the futurama;)

[MojoCrow]

I must confess to being a teeny weeny bit disappointed when no more ducks appeared when a string was pulled throughout the rest of the course. Ok, not all strings required pulling after a shot (mores the pity;):p) but i did have my hopes up about the ducks:D.

[Siobhannyon]

:DThanks to all Swallows members for a great course, and what a beautiful day :D although i did forget the sunscreen and ended up burnt :(. Such a lovely course, didn't like the queueing at peg 1 though.... other than that such a lovely day. :D:D:D:D

According to google, another practice that's not a good look either and it's advisable to keep your eyes closed ...............

Well, Luv-A-Duck, that's one in the eye for you, then :eek::confused:

There are various forms of eye ......... and not just the beholders!
