Sussex Interclub HFT 2016 - Round 8 Results

[biggles]

Hi All

Yet another great Buxted course for us to enjoy – or not – depending on how you faired.

Thanks to all involved in getting the place ready with lots of new targets in lots of new positions. Fortunately, the forecast wind failed to show up. On the flip side, the light too did not put in an appearance on many of the lanes, resulting in difficulty seeing the plate, let alone the kill zones, specially toward the end of the round when much paint had been removed from around the kills.

In spite of this, young Lewis showed us all the way, finishing a full 2 points clear of the field with a stunning 59. This almost certainly reflected the difficulty factor; that and the total number of Gold Badge winners at an all-time low of 7.

Here is the full set of results …..

Please let me know a.s.a.p. if you spot anything you think is amiss.

Just one new Platinum Badge won today – to Lewis. My apologies go to him and the Round 7 winners. Even delving in to the deepest corners of the SIHFT bucket failed to find the stock so you will have to await at least another 3 weeks.

Prize drawer winners today were :

• Maciek Pajek – the £30 cash prize, and
• Stuart Osborne – the Air Arms goody bag

Team scores today and cumulative points for Rounds 1-8 are:

Club	Round 8	Points
Oaks	277	92
Horsham	266	70
Buxted	265	81
Meon Valley	254	80
Ford	248	62
Swallows	241	54
Iden Fern	240	45
Maldon	131	60

Swallows FTC, Ford and MAD all required lucky-dip cards, Maldon getting 3 cards (the max allowed) although were a no-show for today’s round due to a home commitment. Iden Fern did NOT need extra today and it was great to see you out in numbers

Happy and safe shooting to you all ahead of round 9 of the 2016 SIHFT, which is in three weeks on the 28^th August at HORSHAM. All the best of everything to those venturing waaay oop North to the UKAHFT round at Rivington on the 21^st.

Maybe not, but I will - CompAir has no scruples (just ask Mr Cargan )

Where is the wind when you need it?

Monkey.

[blackscale]

You didn't need it, still a tough course even though a couple of Top Oakie shooters ignored your efforts and just 'knocked 'em down'!

Might have done the same if i remembered to pack my brain!

Aaron top shooting, you are our 'rising star'!!

Shall i update my Sig...or is that too presumptious and darn rude?

UP THE OAKS!!
