I thought a clear was when you knocked over all 30 targets, not 29.

That's right, and the question is?

IT's not a question,i just wouldn't go around claiming a clear round when i only knocked down 29 targets.

[blackscale]

One target was pulled and as I set it take all responsibility.

Judging by the first round splat marks it seemed a good portion flattened it so it wasn't that hard for a knowledgeable shooter to know the range and adjust accordingly and kill it.

29 targets knocked over and two points from a pull is still a clear.

Was'nt that Guy Gillies bullying people into pulling targets again was it?

[ateallthepies]

I didn't see him all day but maybe that was because I wasn't near the burger van much?


Boy that man can eat!!

I think you're being a little hard on yourself there Steve. You were one of a group of people who finalised the course and a few more checked the course over.

This was the first external comp that many of us had been involved in. I think 1 pulled target and 4 stoppages was a good result.

It seems only certain people have to miss it for it to be pulled.

Sorry Dave but that is uncalled for. I have known Mark for a few years and I have never known him to cheat.

Are you actually saying that he had a target pulled so he could get his clear?

From what I have heard the kneeling target was illegal and as such it was pulled. The target was at maximum range and as such was shot at 35yds; this is because it was a UK spec course. Why would anyone put there 40 yard marker in a kill that can only be 35yards? You would put your 35 and 30 yard marker in the kill.

FOR THE RECORD...

Soon after the first session had started, I was walking the course, checking things were OK as I approached peg 14 Steve Light and his shooting partner were at the peg and Steve said he thought it was a bit long, his partner agreed and mentioned that he thought another target was also dodgey.

I went to check the distance of peg 14 and look at the other target. The distance to the target on peg 14 was 40yds and thus illegal for a kneeling/standing shot.

I went and found Mark as I was unsure how to pull the target.
Other than telling me to chuck the string over the firing line, remove the peg from the ground and tell the remaining shooters the peg had been pulled. He had no input/influence to the target being pulled.


I doubt the truth will ease your feelings or change your opinion of what constitutes a clear but hey ho we are individuals.

Happy shooting.

Well done Mark,now you can relax and see the 'maxies roll' .
Its supprising once you have managed a clear the tension comes off and others follow in quick time; a bit like uncorking a bottle .
