    Ford is like.....

    Ford is unlike most courses, lift a string and it snakes left then right.
    Presumed ballistics count for nothing, predicting a path can be a real tough fight.
    The draw is not the shooting per se, but the welcome that meets all on the day,
    So do yourself a favour, come down for a flavour, of HFT that makes the spirit feel light.

    My hero...

    ....and he is from Salford too

    He actually wrote a poem about HFT shooters...Action Man...

    give him scars and khaki to wear
    remove his balls, he'll go anywhere
    he doesn't speak, he doesn't dare
    death sneaks, he isn't scared
    minus balls, he doesn't care
    jacks beware, action man.

    he can ack-ack Ackrington, bomb Berlin
    reduce your car to a heap of tin
    wage war, what's more - win
    punctured skin means nothing to him
    the human grenade minus pin
    that's him, action man

    a chin with a thin Kirk Douglas cleft
    squad by the bleeding left
    don't shout he's deaf
    head over heels in love with death
    beware of the wrath of the man bereft
    no marriage plans for action man

    No mention of the eagle eye or the grappling hand, how on earth is he supposed to grandstand?

    Should I leave my rifle and pellets at home on Sunday and bring a quill and paper instead ?
