    Talking GP 4 at Tawd...

    Just a quick post to say thanks to the team behind the shoot...it was a shame the monsoon dampened things (and i couldn't hit a barn door standing inside a barn)...but all the same. Good grub as well.

    No pics from me, it was too wet...

    Well done to Andy Calpin with his afternoon's 48, closely followed by James Osbourne with 47 in the same session, and Ian Taylor and Andy Gillot's 47s from the morning.

    Great course as always from the Tawd crew. Think my day was about the same as your Rob, doing ok in the fairly calm conditions till about half way round and then couldn't hit bugger all !

    The mud slalom was fun too up the back end of the course

    Still had a great day though and nice catching up with everyone...

    Cheers
    Tony

    GP,4 Tawd Vale.

    Big thanks to the folks at Tawd vale who put on a great coarse.
    Wish some had put the lights "on" as just finding some of the targets was a big challenge in its self.
    Big thanks to the gents I shot the coarse with Steve Hebblethwate and Paul Eaton, thanks for all the advice and I will be following it.

    Well thats my 3rd GP and each one has been very different, gp1 wind, gp2 had everything! so what next.
    Bit disapointed with score as started so well but just goes to show me loads more to learn and what a great sport this is.

    Thanks for fantastic day.
    Except for people who crashed on M6 and put 2 hours on my trip home in soaking clothes, thanks!.

    All the best see you soon Steve,S.

    You'll not be wanting your stickers then Rob?

    I reckon Scotland is a bit far for me, although I really want to get more FT done as I enjoyed myself and learnt loads. Possibly see you at GP6?!
