Both courses are out.


30 shot Main is using some Gp lanes and some new, good balance of long, average and short full kills with a small helping of minis. 4 kneelers + 2 standers.
If the forcast strong wind is indeed a bit savage Sunday Morning, then some targets will be braught in but the course has a gimmie 1 in evey 5 targets as is so most should score well?



EASY FT

30 shot course out via 9 lanes, mix of kills from 15ml (x1) 25ml (x3) and then some 40 with most 45ml. Ranges not too far so should be hits for most, hope to see a few having a go at it. Ideal First Ft course and one where Spring guns could easily outscore Pcp.




Extreme side shoot

Using above Easy course, 3 points for standing, 2 for kneling and 1 for sitting. multi entry


hope to see some of you there Sunday, suggest an early 9am start before the sun comes round, top tip of the day!

Booking in open 8 am onwards

[piemanlarger]

All looking goood for tomorrow.


anyone who wants to pop along and have a go there is the option of using the Clubs S400 set up if you dont have a gun

Top day at tondu with only downside another low Wafta turnout!

Weather was about right though, nice cloud cover, slight breeze early on then a good dollop of wind later (Thats when Little Jack and I shot so thats my excuse lol)


Only one whistle and I think that due to someone mistaking an easy 27yard target (full kill) Re-set cord for the start of a tug of war Match. No names

Taken on baord old Man Doz'es comments about a stretched out course, it was yes for 30 shots but we restricted the main to 30 due to the 30 shot Easy Ft course / side shoot.
Least the Extreme side shoot was popular, be great to see more clubs put on Vermin / extreme side shoots?

[piemanlarger]

Ft practise course is back out.

20 targets, re-setters so shot twice for a 40 shot course.

Black plate = sitting shots, of which there are 12 good targets, some high up banks, most flat!
White Plates = Kneeling, 5 targets of varying distance and differculty.
Yellow plates = Standing, 3 targets at varying distances and angles



Hope to start putting the Easy Ft course out Saturday so there is a 20 shot easy course as well to practise on.
