Compair Charity Shoot at the Oaks - Results

[Charles44]

Once again very many thanks to everyone who came along and gave generously of their time and money.

We did well last year, we did better this year - the grand total raised is £1204.47 which considering we had 57 people shooting is outstanding - Paul and Helene from Cancervive are absolutely delighted.

I must say an additional thanks to all those who donated raffle prizes which did add considerable to the takings - notably Claire from Air Arms, the team at CH Weston for their voucher, and Compair for the subscription voucher (but then I would say that). It is worth saying a particular well done to Rex who managed to raise a significant amount for Cancervive by prising cash from those he has met over the last few weeks!

Finally many thanks to all the Oakies who helped put the course up over the last few days and Isobel, Paul and Helene for feeding us today.

Particular well done to Kev and Nigel both of whom posted the highest score in their class and had the foresight to shoot together - unstoppable.
Finally well done to Andy for showing us how he would have done it if he had not listened to Chilly.

See you all next week, and the week after and the week after.......

.... to all the organisers and entrants for a great day and great outcome for a great cause.

Well done to the top shots, but especially to the PCP & Boinger pairs scoring 98 and more

Note to self - must get the Prosport out of the cupboard more than once every 3 years

That was a brilliant day! Thank you to Charles and the rest of the Mile Oak crew for hosting a superb shoot, to the guys and girls for Cancervive for keeping us all fed and watered in such style, and to everyone who turned out, took part, and supported such a worthwhile (and sometimes over-looked) charity.

As Charles said, for 57 competitors to raise over £1,200 is a massive achievement - a figure that was bolstered in no small way by the hard work and sheer persistence of one Mr Rex Bennet; Rex, step forward and take a huge bow - that was an awesome contribution!

That was a fantastic shoot, to end off a really great Sussex weekend for me!!

Thank you Charles and all the Oakies for setting out the course; and Isobel, Paul and Helene for providing such delicious food and excellent cups of tea!!

Huge thanks to Chris Tyhurst who nursed me round the course (not to mention put up with me on Sunday too!!), and helped me score my pb with Sir Galahad!!!

Wow! what a fabulous sum raised for Cancervive!! Rex won his £10 challenge by coming in with more than 50, well done!!

Not forgetting, congratulations to all the winners - well deserved!

See you all soon.

That's it........I am turning to the springer side..well my lad is at least (one of us has to be a guinea pig) as I feel we 'kind of' missed out on something special today.
Fantastic idea, shooting for a charity, worthwhile cause at that.

Had a brilliant time & the weather holding made it all the better, to top the day off the wife never gave me a slap as I shot three days on the trot....phew!!!
Thanks to all the hosties, setters & chefs for making another day go without a hitch.

Well done to all the winners today especially to Kev Hills & Nigel Wood who showed us all how's it's done.
