    Sussex Interclub HFT 2016 - Round 7 Results

    Hi everyone

    Well …. That was a long day after a couple of even longer days, but I hope you all enjoyed it. Not a specially difficult course and a few ‘lost’ points won back after 3 targets (lanes 3, 16 and 20) got pulled for which I apologise. Guess Swallows FTC needs to visit the target shop to replace some of our aging Knockovers. Pleased to say that NOT among the ‘pulled’ lanes were a few of our very ancient handmade jobbies, produced long before there were any commercial targets.

    On the plus side the breeze across the water saved day as far as a string of clear rounds might otherwise have been achieved. And for the rest of the competitors, I heard of many new PBs providing a welcome morale boost.

    BIG thanks go to the small but very special crew from Swallows and another to all those visitors who helped set up our dining area and the practice range and helped again after the shoot was over with deconstructing the courses. Extra thanks to Wurz and Jacks (Jax?) and their hounds for preparing great grub for our breakfast and lunch.

    Entry number for the day was back up to a very healthy 70 – or was it 69 or even 68; ‘admin’ seemed to be a tad confused by the two people shown on the results list below both recorded as Did Not Finish. Do either of you recall booking in? No cards found whichever.

    Many thanks Swallows for a most enjoyable morning shoot. Had a great day with a new P.B thanks to Aaron for the company and to nick with his weird sence of humour !!!!! I say no more.
    Just because I'm shooting mad in the .22 class does not mean I have sold my ftp900. @@@@@@ lol

    Have a good week.

    Thank you for all your hard work Swallows, all that blood and sweat was worthwhile

    I couldn't believe the strength of the wind along the bank of the lake.

    I take my hat off to your 59 Mike, how you managed that while organising and marshalling the event is beyond me. Just out of interest, which one did you miss?

    See you all at Buxted.

    Weird sense of humour??? That's rich coming from someone who openly admits to drinking Bailey's Cream Liqueur!

    A hugely enjoyable day, and big thanks to Mike and the crew for making it happen

    Can't recall the exact number - across the lake somewhere around peg 9 to a target partially obscured by a piece of board on its right side. Breezy and gave it a dot of wind, aiming just off the wooden board. Actually needed nearly a dot and a half. Charles shot it after me and wind died - he was able to take crosshairs on. Doh!

    Hey ho. Maybe next time
