Hi All
The Buxted boys did us proud (again), with a superb course set entirely in their two areas of woodland, with added lakes, drain pipes and tricky baffle boards to shoot over, round or through.
Very little breeze to contend with, but some wonderful range traps out there. Sufficient to confuse most of us except the extraordinary skills of the likes of Tugglet and Charles, each coming home having dropped just a couple of points; fantastic result, you two. Well done all guys … and ladies … among the Gold badge winners. Commiserations to the rest of us; just have to take home lots of (hopefully) learned lessons.
That’s all there is to this HFT game, lots of shooting and lots of learning. I just to need to stop the ‘forgetting’ bit. Doh.
Here is the full set of results …..

Please let me know a.s.a.p. if you spot anything you think is amiss.
Prize drawer winners today were :
- Richard Chase – the £34 cash prize, and
- Mariusz Morzuch – the Air Arms goody bag
Team scores today and cumulative points for Rounds 1-5 were:
Horsham and Iden Fern had to rely on ‘lucky-dip’ cards for the shortage of team members. And pretty lucky indeed they were, pulling a 52 for Horsham and a 50 and a brace of 48s for Iden.

Happy and safe shooting to you all ahead of round 6 of the 2016 SIHFT, which is in three weeks on the 10th July at Ford.
In the meantime, best of luck to the SIHFT participant crew returning to Buxted next weekend for Round 4 of the UKAHFT. For the rest, happy and safe shooting wherever you may be.
