    Well done to all who competed. I shot appallingly, many thanks to Neil & Barry for their many words of advise & assistance round the course, Gentlemen both!

    GP2 MAD a GR8 Day!

    Your were right Kilty! Only my 2nd GP since last year, but this one was a great one. Dopper, fellow orgainisers and helpers, well done, a great shoot. Having shot there before, I have to say it was almost of mill-pond proportions on the day compared to it's name christened by the wind itself, MAD, but still, retained some wind that only JC could know which way! The wood shoot was indeed magical (and dark) carpeted in total with blue bells, the scent pervaded the scene. Marshall's fab, grub and company tres enjoyable, and thanks to my partner on the day (who sorted my kneeling apparoach) Mic Brown, a true shooting gentleman, cheers Mic. Once more big thanks to Dopper, MAD members, and those who also helped from Springfield & ETL and others I'm not aware of that contributed, it's this kind of shoot that pushes a novices interest (like mine) on to the next one!

    Well Done MAD.

    Well done chaps,
    Fantastic coarse best I have shot to date "it had it all"! Been new to sport it had me thinking all the way around. Good food and " cheap " and good company.

    Did a certain Mr A,G manage to get a fight then? thought at one stage he was close with a certain "Lady". LOL.

    All the best Steve.

    Firstly I would like to thank Mr Richard Woods and all the gang at MAD for one of the best GP courses I have ever shot. If it wasn't for 2 big Welsh ogres (Mark Basset and Dorian Falconer) standing just over the little bridge, I thought I had walked into a fairy tale wood.

    Greg, you will get there mate, it's early days for you yet, there are a few little things you recognise yourself, work on the weak points and I am sure you will get a lot better.

    Thanks also to Barry Warren, a true gentleman of the sport, I have shot with him a few times and it's always a pleasure.

    Thanks again to all who had a hand in setting the course, and the chap doing the food, it was cheap and very good.

    The wooded area will host some 15 lanes or more and will add interest and variation to a well thought out course. Less testing perhaps???
    The only club in the area with Flushing toilets for both sexes and one of the best plinking ranges...thanks to Jennie, Essex Bird.

    See you there on the day.......27th April

    Everybody welcome

    Barry
    And EVERYBODY I spoke to enjoyed the shoot. that was 137 out of 138!!

    I think the whole "MAD Family" got it just about right or nearly puurrffect!

    btw The wind was DEFINITELY stronger in the morning

    might be that we get another one at MAD sometime??

    Its not stopping me shooting m8, never planned doing many of the GP`s anyway. Family commitments etc, winter leagues are not a problem though..
