Sussex Interclub HFT 2017 - Round 9 RESULTS
Afternoon All
Big THANKS to what I suspect was a very small crew of Fordies who set out a challenging course for us today, made all the more confusing by turning those lanes on the concrete through 180 degrees; seemed very strange shooting toward the north west and with a wind from left to right, except when it didn’t seem to blow at all. How many points did I drop on that unforgiving surface when daring to place my crosshairs ‘just’ outside the left side of the kill, only to see the pellet land precisely there. Doh and thrice (at least) Doh!!
Just 59 brave souls (the rest had clearly looked at the forecast!) joined in the fray today. Given the conditions, knocking something over seemed all the more pleasurable but the Fordie ‘breeze’ led to the 2nd lowest top score (54) of the SIHFT 2017 season, only beaten by our last visit to Ford for Round 2 at the back end of Spring. For those of you who made an effort to forget Round 2, the top that day was 53 and with an average 5 points lower than today.
My vote for top shots of the day go to Abi – just a single point short of the top score and 2 points above her dad – and to Nick scoring 50 with a lump of a .22 pellet. Excellent shooting both of you.

For achieving their 5th Gold of the season, no fewer than 6 fresh Platinum Badges were earned today and went (excluding those who failed to hang around for the presentation) to Gary Chillingworth, Howard Kalisch, Kev Maw, Derek Watson and Juniors Abi Maw and Daisy Dibbens. Congratulations to you all.
Please let me know a.s.a.p. if you spot anything you think is amiss. Have I misspelt any names? Have I put you in the wrong class? Let me know if you spot anything wrong. BBS PM or email should do the trick.
Prize drawer winners today were:
- Nick Byrne – the £30 cash prize,
- Charlie Grey – the Air Arms goody bag
- And Jean Greatrex won the Compair Magazine subscription
With Buxted taking 5 of the top 7 places, it should be no surprise that they managed to stretch their 1st place lead over Meon by one further point. By my reckoning, unless someone from Meon can persuade Buxted that the final round of this year’s SIHFT is being held at Fort, the latter are looking very safe to take the 2017 Team Trophy, finally shoe-horning it from the long-term grasp of the Oakies. Iden Fern and MAD were today both a few people short of the 5 required to form a team, so benefitted from the ‘free draw’ rule for extra cards to achieve their totals. Total team scores and cumulative points won are :

Safe shooting to everyone ahead of the final round of the 2017 SIHFT, which is in 3 weeks’ time on the 1st October when we return to the cow poo laden Downland at Mile Oak.
When I’ve finished crunching all the numbers, I will post here with a link to the updated overall individual tables. Keep your eyes peeled.
In the meantime, very best of shooting to all the SIHFTers, including those competing in next weekend’s open at Horsham or joining Swallows ‘at home’ or venturing up to the Midland Game Fair. The following weekend, a bunch of us may meet up at Cambridge for the UKAHFT on the 24th
