What an Easter treat that was, kinda knew it would be a little muddy but was not expecting that
Alpha course was a mud fest fit for a pig, Bravo sticky as toffee meant fighting just to peel your mat off the ground
Organisers did a great job with such short notice & things ran well, some rounds went on for little longer but no way could timings be worked out that well so was to be expected. Moving away from 2 minutes to take your shot to 1 minute made a lot of difference & would be a good format to keep, maybe get people used to it by using that in Southern Hunters & SiHFT, just an idea.
A 'speed shoot' on that scale didn't suit everyone & I expect it may show to the more experienced among us.
I shot crap I have to admit but seeing my lad handle those conditions & not sat all weekend on a console made it all worth while.
Congrats to Simon Vant for a well deserved win & to all the other top shots & competitors.
Thanks to Andy Hope as our 3rd & very good shooting mate, well done.
Moving the event to June would be a fantastic proposition & the Kelmarsh Show as a whole will probably benefit as well with the better weather.
Would I do that again in those conditions...bloody right I would

Atb to everyone involved & thanks for a great event.
