    Cool Sussex Interclub HFT 2016 - Round 10 results

    Hi Everyone

    Well, what a day. Looking and feeling the weather – lots of sunshine and seemingly no wind – when we arrived I do not think there would have been too much surprise at a whole bunch of clearances and high 50s on the cards.

    WRONG!

    You forgot to take in to account the almost invisible breeze in the top field. And no one would have thought that Charles and the Oakie gang could have set out such beastly range traps in the woods. I believe there has been only one other round in the year with a lower top score (56). Well done chaps; the rest of us shall have to learn from you for 2017.

    Here is the full set of results …..

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

    Three new Platinum badges issued in this final round – to Kevin Hills, Graeme Cargan and Adam Longhurst. Well done guys. Apologies to Kevin for calling out a.n.other name when the Platinums were issued – put right in the clubhouse after the crowds had dispersed, but you deserved the round of applause.

    Prize drawer winners today were :

    • Paul Chantler – the £30 cash prize, and
    • Charles Peal – the Air Arms goody bag


    Team scores today and cumulative points for the 2016 SIHFT Season are:
    Club Round 9 2016 Total Points
    Meon Valley 266 102
    Buxted 262 103
    Oaks 255 114
    Iden Fern 253 62
    Horsham 236 86
    Swallows 228 66
    Ford 216 74
    Maldon 186 74

    Today only MAD – which sole representative was Lady Jean - required lucky-dip cards up to the max 3 allowed by the rules.

    Just in case it needs pointing out, the Team Results table above are in order of those winning Round 10. If you scan across to the year’s cumulative figure, you may spot that just sneaking in to grab the overall Team WIN for the year is ………. Mile Oak

    With the unmissable Grand Finale still to go that is otherwise ‘it’ for SIHFT in 2016. It was announced today that the GF is to be hosted by Horsham Hawks and the date (9th October) should already be in your diaries. Given the idea worked through today during discussion with Hawkies head-of-state (Phil J), there will be much fun to be had as well as trophies to pick up and major prizes to take away, but only if you are present on the day.

    I will be posting the full set of end-of-year individual class results here (or nearby) very shortly, but can announce now that there have been quite a few moves in the trophy winning places …. And down the tables too. Keep your eyes peeled for the post.

    I woke up this morning turned to my smart phone looked up the weather for Mile Oak on the Met Office app and thought to myself "I might have a real chance of getting my third gold of the SIHFT"

    Well how wrong could I be I mean honestly guys, some of those traps were just genius, you would walk up to a peg and think "How easy is that?" but when you got down you soon realised a lot of thought and adjustment went into setting up the shots. Making maximum use of the dark woods, the slopes, bumps, undulations, targets and even the pegs was very, very clever.

    So, after all that, all I have to say is, I HATE YOU I HATE YOU ALL ........You will all suffer in kind when we return the favour early next year at Ford

    In the meantime, while I wait for my sweet revenge, can I just say a huge thank you to Mike and the SIHFT club team leaders for once again being the drivers behind the success that is the SIHFT, it is a real pleasure to be part of such a wonderful competition.

    See you all on the 9th of October.

    Oaks Summer Open leader board

    As today's SIHFT round also counted towards the Oaks Open summer league I have updated the leader board - its still Roger out in the lead but plenty who could catch him!

    Scores are on the attached link - look at the last entry on the thread.

    Very many thanks to all at the Oaks who set the course today. Really clever and very much enjoyed!

    Thanks also from everybody at Horsham for the series; with a special 'thank you' to all those who made it possible. It ran really smoothly and was an absolute delight from start to finish.

    We're very much looking forward to hosting the 'end of season finale' and are looking forward to seeing you all there.

    Very best wishes,

    PJ

    Thanks to the hosting club, course setters, restaurant staff & office people for a well thought out, albeit tough, last round.
    Having only made three rounds this year as I was a little late starting me & my lad shall try to make it to a lot more rounds next year.

    Target placement was pretty clever & I now have less hair after missing those 'oh so easy' shots I thought I would have nailed, my lad chuckled like a muppet when I trod in a cow turd, made his week, sorry he can't comment he went to bed early for some strange reason , he did a lot better this time as we had a change around with his stock so he will hone his skills for next year.

    Great weather & atmosphere made for a very nice day cheers to all involved.
