    This is one bloke that myself and Jane and plenty of other people will sadly miss, not only in the shooting world but he is someone that me and Jane classed as a good friend.

    A sad loss

    Deepest sympathy to Dave's family - for BFTA I suspect he will be irreplaceable.

    inspiration to the sport, shooters and friends.
    hopefully you hit the bull where ever your destination takes you and im sure you'll be enjoyed by many more in your new resting place!

    peace be with you and your family!

    Being new to the competition scene I only met Dave once at our round of the NEFTA HFT. He had a quick chat about me shooting my TX, and wished me luck as it was my first time.

    My condolences to his family.

    I was shocked to get a call about this a little earlier. I don't remember when I first met Dave, it was several years ago but I remember both him and Pauline as fixtures, so to speak, at the BFTA shoots and then at the UKAHFT shoots as well. He was a bridge across the two forms of our shooting sports and that was good. He will be remembered in SWEFTA and our Dartmoor Marksmen club for his input into the Grand Prix that we hosted this summer. He will be truly missed both as a good sportsman and as a good friend to us all. My condolences to Pauline and the family.
