    Thanks very much, the same to you.
    I assume you were on a 55?
    I really thought things would be much,much closer.
    I must say I felt I'd shot better than my score says.
    I guess that just shows how tricky things were.
    Just imagine how much fun it would of been with a stiff breeze.

    See you all at Ford.

    All credit to you Mr Wells, a fantastic performance.
    Sadly for us Hobbits, we tend to put so much into the course, we blow it on the day.
    Our philosophy is to build courses to beat the man, not courses for man to beat.
    A few tears and tantrums, I had a bad one .. on the day, that's how it is.
    Glad you enjoyed it, as evidently, did many others and made the few successes all the more outstanding.

    Gary.

    Fantastic course Buxted, probably one of the hardest I've ever shot, some real thought must have gone in to that. The standard just gets higher and higher.

    Thanks for all the praise chaps.
    I do enjoy a good tricky woodland course.

    Just checked the date for Ford next month and realised I'm
    going to miss it! I shall be flying to Spain that very morning.Damn and blast!!
    I'll have to get one of my illustrious team mates to pick up my medal.

    Cheers.

    Note to self, check your top turret isn't 14 clicks out before you've shot 10 pegs


    Checked Daniel's zero last night and it was bang on, checked it just now and it was shooting half an inch high so I managed to sabotage his day as well

    Slinking off for a kip on the sofa and putting this all behind me... until next time!

    There was a lot of snapping going on brother and not a picture to be seen.
    Evidently it may be prudent to dredge the stream for some unwanted ironware though I hear a lot of it wasn't up to much in the first place.

    Roll on Ford, the home of the bouncing branch.

    arf!
