    Cool General Shooting

    Easter Sunday! naughty..

    Either Richard @ Ford or The oaks are putting on a shoot!..TBC

    Plus;

    Next Weds evening, we shall start our Sillhouette shooting, no official start time.
    If you are travelling any distance, it may be worth phoning, Me, Charles, John, Terry...?

    I shall be there as early as possible but if you are there first please feel free to set the targets out...only 4X.
    I think without looking, they are set out at;
    45yds Rams
    36yds Chickens
    30yds Pigs
    20yds chicks
    Can anyone correct or fill in the spaces?

    We have stopwatches 2mins to shoot 5 targets.
    Four banks, shot twice, just for fun but feel free to compete! ..Last time i hit 4..

    I Rather think this needs to take place in the Field...bit concerned about Ricochets in the wood!

    Thanks everyone, the Weds eve shooting will be open to all, free to members and £2 to guests...

    20 Yards- Chicks (approx 15-20mm)

    30 Yards- Pigs (approx 35mm)

    36 Yards- Turkeys ( Nope, not members of the Oaks, shamefull failures of Sussex, but the type that made Bernard Mathews (rip) say "Booootifull"-approx 25mm)

    45 Yard-Rams (approx 45mm)

    Great practice for kneelers and standers-lets face it you oakies need it

    Never go off half cocked....

    All lies matter

    If it's Ford I can't make it to far away to be back in time
    If it's Oaks still might not be able to come unless I can be away by midday,so more than likely I won't make it,so I guess it will be Swallows SIHFT next for me, see you there.
    Charles I will take your cylinder to Swallows unless you say otherwise.
