    Bluebells

    I hate those sod*ing bluebells - they're even worse than the twigs sticking out in front of all the kill-zones. I always end up connecting with two or three of the bug*ers, which sends the average .177 pellet spinning off into the next county. I may bring along a .25 bluebell-buster and see how that works out. Either that or a .30 loaded up with a dozen .172 lead balls tight packed between felt wads - that should give the wretched plantlife something to think about. Anything in the HFT rules about duplex loads, air shotguns, burst-fire capability, etc?

    I plan to stamp a small line through them when helping set up, just off the peg so it is not too obvious. Although now I have said that I suppose it will be.

    Any chance of getting 2 zeroing positions available? I know the log is big enough for 2 (depending on size), but last time I used it I fell backwards off it and it may have upset the concentration of the person next to me.

    Well the moral of this is don't be first to go around the course

    Let Messrs Nemesis and Fred_Bear loose to harvest the offending flora, thus leaving an easier run for the rest of us

    What do you think
    I need to practice more to have more lucky shots.

    sorry lads

    I am afraid that as i am a nature lover and that the bluebells are lovely
    when they are out, we will have to tread gently when setting the course
    out.

    THW 19th

    Ooops, I put it in the forum we should not be posting in, but won't this forum simply change into what we used the other one for?


    Cannot think of anything useful to say so this will have to do.

    ... A young man from the city went to visit his farmer uncle. For the first few days, the uncle showed him the usual things - chickens, cows, crops, etc. After three days, however, it was obvious that the nephew was getting bored, and the uncle was running out of things to amuse him with.
    Finally, the uncle had an idea. "Why don't you grab a gun, take the dogs, and go shooting?"
    This seemed to cheer the nephew up, and with enthusiasm, off he went, dogs in trail.
    After a few hours, the nephew returned.
    "How did you enjoy that?" asked the uncle.
    "It was great!" exclaimed the nephew. "Got any more dogs?"
