Ive got off to a rather bad start in the competition. Im shooting outside in the garden so have to wait for more favourable conditions being as its blowing half a hooligan across Anglesey this last week or so. Anyway I decided to have a go and started with a warm up session. First five shots at the target I only shot myself, luckily it was a bounce back that caught me just above my waist and not on unprotected flesh!!! On close examination Id hit a large knot on the 2" thick plank Id attached the target to. I have now modified the way Im mounting the target by including several layers of cardboard between the target and the timber back stop so that wont happen again. Anyway I then settled down to my second set of warm up shots, I got three shots into the taget and it starting to really lash it down with rain, the ink on the target isnt waterproof and is now running down the target.
Thankfully there are still 21 days left to complete the shoot.
Wet Roy
