Hi All

Well done Cap’n Cutthroat and his crew - a great course with some very challenging target placements unless, of course, your name was Sam or Eric, or Rudy, or etc., etc.. Superb effort on the part of all Gold badge winners.

However, for most of us more ‘normal’ souls I reckon that today’s wind would have been more welcome if we’d moved the event a few miles south ….. and competed on board sailing vessels! On the plus side, it helped to chill what would otherwise have been a 3rd SIHFT round on the trot in almost unbearable heat. Not at all a typical British Summer

Here are the full results – in the usual format – and with the usual request for you to PM me if you believe you spot any errors or omissions.

Winners of today’s draw prizes were Ashley Poile (£34 bonus bunny ) and Graeme Cargan (Air Arms goodie bag ).

Round 8 coming up in two weeks, to be hosted by Horsham Hawks on Sunday 18th August.

As promised when posting the results for Round 6, as we have reached the point in the SIHFT 2013 series where those of you who have shot in all 7 rounds to date will begin to drop your lowest score in an effort to build something worthy of the top places in the Individual Trophy results, I will shortly arrange for some form of readable league table to be posted on our (SIHFT) web site. Keep looking there, but I will post briefly here (BBS) to announce the launch.
