Sussex Interclub HFT 2017 - Round 6 RESULTS

[biggles]

Hi All

Mahoosive thanks to the whole (small but special – as it is at so many clubs) Horsham Hawks crew for putting out a great course for this 6^th round of the 2017 Sussex Interclub HFT series.

Excellent nosh too, with bacon or sausage butties for breakfast and some delicious pulled pork or burgers (or a 2^nd breakfast if you chose) for lunch.

Weather wise we had very little sun and not too much breeze, but it sure was dark in some of the woodland – accounting for 28 of the 30 lanes – and humid too.

In the conditions, we might have expected at least one clearance from a large field (86 entries) and many top shooters present from all 8 participating clubs, all of which managed to field a team of at least 5 people. But the best that could be achieved was a pair of 58s leading the field. Well done to Graeme and Steve for those scores. Big question has to be …… will Graeme be using the same kit in a week’s time for the double header UKAHFT at Maldon? I suspect that, this time, the answer will be “yes” (unless it’s a “no”)

Here is the full set of results …..

Three new Platinum Badges won today - for winning 5 Golds - by Roger Dibbens, Nigel Wood and yours truly - Mike B. Well done us

There was one score card which failed the Simmo scrutiny today, for a shooter whose fellow competitors had seeming changed a 1 to a 2 but failed to get it signed off by a marshal before handing it in. Please, please check and check again, for anything which could be construed a change, even if only due to wrist or pen slippage. ‘Only’ one point, but that could be vital at the end of the year.

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:

• Jill Cochran – the £43 cash prize,
• Kev Wickson – the Air Arms goody bag
• And David Henderson won the Compair Magazine subscription (his name pulled 2^nd out of the bag immediately after Nick Byrne who, for some reason, felt it should go to someone more deserving )

A little more shuffling among the Teams today, with Buxted stretching their lead by one more precious point. Total team member scores for today's round and cumulative points won are :

Club	Round 6	Points
Meon Valley	282	64
Buxted	276	68
Maldon	276	49
Oaks	273	62
Iden Fern	266	44
Horsham	265	49
Swallows	257	40
Ford	254	40

Happy and safe shooting to you all ahead of round 7 of the 2017 SIHFT, which is in three weeks on the 6^th August at Swallows FTC. In the meantime, very best of shooting to all the SIHFTers, including those competing in next weekend’s UKAHFT double-header at Maldon.

For those pot hungry people, as we have now reached the ‘magic’ SIX rounds mark of the year (remembering that it’s your best 6 of the possible 10 rounds which count toward end-of-year results) I will be publishing the total ‘league’ table so far very shortly – later this afternoon.
