    Exclamation August 10m Competition starts today

    Whew - this one really seemed to come around quickly!

    We are past the halfway mark now in Season 3 with only three rounds left to shoot after this month.

    As usual, scores must be in by 2200hrs next Sunday 29th August.

    Good luck and have fun, everyone.

    Thanks for the reminder, Mike. Yes, these comps do have a way of sneaking up on you.

    This will be interesting. I picked up my new specs today. Never shot with glasses on before. It will be interesting to see what effect it has, if any. Probably just mean I can see how much I'm missing by without walking up to the target.

    Scores submitted Mike

    Jef, I found that glasses made me shoot about 1'' high.

    Well, varifocals are out, depending which bit you look through you get a clear bull, fuzzy front sight and two rear sights, or slightly fuzzy bull, clear front very fuzzy rear or two fuzzy bulls fuzzy front and clear rear. But, as I suspected, I can now see the holes in the black from 10m away, trouble is only 3 out of 5 hit the black

    So, glasses off and start again, ah yes fuzzy bull, clearish front, slightly fuzzy rear and only one of each, back to normal. Oh, and all five in the black too. I don't think I'll be using these glasses for shooting. I'm due to get a single vision pair for driving so will try those, it is nice to see where your pellet goes.

    Spring result sent in Mike, SSP to follow if I get a chance one evening.

    Shot today you should have the scores now. Best ever CO2 score and best ever 10M PCP target. Everything else was junk!

    Thanks for all the work Mike. If you're wondering where Noddy is, I dropped him into a wheelie bin last week and he's still stuck.

    Do the RSPCA know?

    Thanks for all your scores, I've been in the Lakes for a few days but all emails have now been replied to.

    It's a bit breezy hereabouts for the final day of the competition, and if the weather where you are is anything like here, you'll have to dodge those squally showers. Good Luck to everyone shooting today.
