Rossendale MTC - refurbished club range now "officially" opened.

The new Rossendale Model Target Clubs recently refurbished range was well and truly "opened" this week by a visit from Robin and Pam Carter who came to the club to shoot with us on Tuesday evening and stayed with us all day on Wednesday to give some much needed 10 metre air rifle coaching free of charge to our club members.

After a long drive up from Great Yarmouth to visit us we enjoyed their friendly good humoured manner and the generous amount of time they were prepared to share with us.

Robins excellent book on air rifle shooting coaching is well known to many (and owned by most of our club members), so to have the author prepared to travel a long distance to see us and stay here with us for a couple of days was indeed a real treat.

Pam Carter is a well known rifle shooter with plenty of national and international experience and she was happy to give us a superb demonstration of 10 meter air rifle shooting so we could all see this "precision discipline" demonstrated in person.

As self taught air rifle shooters it was a real eye opener to see "how it should be done" and Pam's targets are the best that have been witnessed on our club range to date.

No doubt in the future as we all aspire to improve our target air rifle shooting skills we will remember that it was "Team Carter" that gave us the coaching and demonstration that inspired us.

Robin and Pam have an impressive depth of knowledge and experience and their willingness to share this with us was greatly appreciated by us all.
