    My Son would string me up if a I came along to this, it being his birthday and all.

    I still get crap off him for going shooting on his birthday 4 years ago, and that was when we were in the states and shooting pistols, AR15 and a Barret .50 cal, I even asked him to come along.

    It looks like it's going to be a good time for all, maybe next time

    Ok Guy's, Quote this thread and add your names to it, that way we don't have to hunt through all the threads to see who will be attending. If your name goes down we will be asking for your £6 admission in advance as we have to book the range, details of how to pay will follow shortly.

    Thank you

    TROPHIES now, you say? Well, that changes everything: we don't want to forego the chance, slim as it is, of winning a trophy.

    I'm up for it. Any decent clay grounds nearby and would anyone staying over be up for some clays on Sunday morning, make a weekend out of it?

    Trophies

    Hi Jim & Jan
    Let's be fair, you two are currently the ONLY entrants for the virtual shoot so you must get a one two on the scoreboard.

    OH YEAH and before anyone else asks we want to try this as an experiment before we go large on it but if Jan (the brains of the outfit) and Jim can set this up we may have some hope for other no shows due to prior commitments.
    (OH God what have I let myself in for?)
