Clearing work and planning coming along nicley.


The Main will start at the top of the bank with some nice shots up into the banks, then come downhill (suits me!) and into the Bowl where the Gp lanes were last year. These will be shorter though than the Gp, but a bit steeper. Wont have too many uphill shots though? Main will then continue on past the bowl and finish half way through the woods.
Not too far to hand in cards then?
4 standers and 4 kneelers, set to current Gp rules so combined distance of standers in any 1 lane will be no more than 60 yards, 70 yards for kneelers.
Eight 25 mm kills on the main course (35 yd max) but no 15 ml kills. 15 ml kills on the vermin

Vermin will be a 12 shot side shoot, £1 per entry. Set in the woods with 15 ml kills, and smaller! May have the odd partial full kill in there too.? Always a popular side shoot.


Standing /Kneeling side shoot. Inspired fby East Devon FTC, This set out around the bottom ponds. £1 per entry. Basically 10 targets, you choose which 5 you take standing and which 5 kneeling.

Pistol side shoot will be up by the Zero range. Not sure exactly how many shots the pistol side shoot will be, would have thaught around 15 ish? £1 per entry

Full days shooting though, 2 x side shoot, pistol and Ft main.

Main course more or less sorted now, just a 33.5 yard average so not a long Ft course by any stretch of the imagination.
Lots of nice angled shoots and plenty of short range "gimmies" to keep spirits up

Should suit all classes from Novice to potential World champions!

£6 for 40 shot main entry, prize money for classes C, B + A (AA shoot in A) 1st to 3rd place + raffle prize.

£1 for Vermin side shoot (£20 1st place )
£1 for standing / kneeling side shoot (£20 1st place)
£1 for pistol side shoot


Zero range Free!

Tea and birthday cake on offer, pop + chocolate Hobnobs all free of charge.

Be great to see some new faces there.
