    This is untrue.





    I can be a shit shot WITHOUT practising, practice just confirms how bad I am.......!

    My usual excuse is "I am just shite." Not only is this statement true, it also puts fellow shooters off watching my performance too closely. My eldest sons usual on the HFT course is the old favourite "parallax error." Load of b-----s. He is just shite as well.

    'Poor' shooting needs no excuse, we ARE shooting and without us there would only be about 10 shooters at most events, so next time you see someone miss remember to tell them, "Well done mate, it's shooters like you that make this sport what it is.."

    It's some of the top competition guys who should be making excuses, ........for wearing those flippin' gimp coats....
