    Thanks for a great day. You guys did wonders in arranging for the sun to shine and the rain to stop - shame you couldn't do something about that wind.

    Nevertheless, really enjoyed the course and the day, but think I'll return to shooting right-handed for the future. Might improve the scores a little!

    ATB,

    That was very enjoyable! Think I've caught the sun

    The long range scores are as follows;
    I clearly won with 3, yes 3! certified 75yard knock downs. Mike, Chris and Jon didn't do too bad. Simmo and Sam tried for bloody ages and still no joy, it was like watching my mum throw left handed, actually she would have probably got it

    Sorry i dispute that Mr shorty pants!

    We all sat down together and i knocked it over twice before you two got near the kill!

    Then you knocked it over twice and Andy walked off in tears.... at which point i stopped with you.

    Then before we know it you are running back to the target with gun in one hand, mat in the other (or something) little white legs pumping, giggling like a little child cos somebody else wanted a go and you wanted to join in!!

    The results are;

    Me The best

    You nearly the best

    Andy and the rest crap!!

    Great fun Si! must do it again!! XX

    I'm giving up on Falcon 7.3's in the wind! Three donuts on trot in field including large pigeon on peg 26 where I aimed left of faceplate and saw pellet curve round to miss the right hand edge!!
    And yes I know some of you warned me - you were right. I shall now carry AAs for fields and falcs for woods

    Bloody typical !

    2 out of three chance for an extra point, and I still missed the wrong 10 targets.
