Another pistol competition

[pollythedog]

Added this last bit just in case you thought that prone (even with your toes behind the line) was OK. If you were not aware of this, and if you happened to be 7' tall and with long arms, you'd have something approaching a 2 1/2 metre advantage

and possibly bad neck ache!

Thanks Brian, scores on site updated.

What happened with the 17? Fairly consistent otherwise.

I've not had the pistol long - bought it second hand - using Napier power pellets, but in any session always get a few go astray. In this case had three that missed altogether (B).
I'm saving up for a HW45 .

I have started to transfer my shop and hence the results page to a new host.
The results are still accessed using the same url of http://www.shireshop.co.uk but the link to the results page has now moved to the left hand side of the page, inside the "Information" box. I believe you can now bookmark the actual results page when you get to it.
Sorry for any inconvenience, but the old shop software was a pain and losing me sales.

Evening all

Here's my effort for February

10,10,9,8,7 = 44
10,10,10,9,7 = 46
9,8,8,7,6 = 38 (Doh)
10,9,9,8,7 = 43

A very scrappy 171.

The extra (but not much) practice I've been putting in doesn't seem to be making things better, if anything I seem to be getting more erratic. Just before this comp card I shot a 173 - but with a 46, 2 x 45s and a 37. The 37 was 2 bulls, a 9, an 8 and a doughnut Without that stupid mistake, this should have been my first 180+ score. Admittedly I only print my bulls out to the 6 ring (so anything outside this scores zilch), but even allowing for that the doughnut shot still was an inch and 3/16th from dead centre and exactly at 6 o'clock.

Thinking cap back on again before I consider March. Or perhaps I should just stop the practice sessions

I am more than happy to get into the 170's so don't do your self down Biggles.

Hi G
The rot seems to have set in a little, both with Pete and I.Hopefully just a temporary glitch
We consumed the usual magic herbal potions but perhaps we need to 'up-the -dose'

Pete's excuse is that he was wearing new shoes and had a lot of loose change in one of his pockets. He is old enough to know that sloppy preparation like this only leads to failure

Scores for Feb are as follows:


Pete:
FAS 604 ---31/40/39/38 = 148
HW45------40/29/42/30 = 141

Myself:
FAS 604----38/39/40/42 = 159
LP53 -------35/39/41/41 = 156

Could you pop a bag of hay in the van, next time you are coming
Many thanks

Scores from yesterday.

10 10 9 9 8 = 46
10 9 9 9 8 = 45
10 10 9 9 8 = 46
10 9 9 9 9 = 46

Total = 183

I am going to get some 6 yd targets for next month as the wind outside will be less of a problem, and I'll be able to see where I have hit

Cheers

Thanks guys
scores now fully up to date on the website.

John, I will leave the hay at the cluib on Saturday, I will also leave the old scope just in case you want to full dismantle it for research as it were, I have already had some bits apart but there is still more you can disasemble.

Have I missed something here? Is your (pennineway) 'magic potion' based on an infusion of HAY? Sort of Hay Tea?

[Andrew R]

hi Biggles
The herbal potions are special, fruity and decaffinated teas that used to make such a difference but unfortunately our old abused bodies no longer respond well to them (or to anything else for that matter.)

Some stronger medicines will have to be researched for Pete and I to keep up with you younger guys. It's time the rules allowed us to rest our weary forearms on the front of the Zimmers

The hay is for a couple of scruffy rabbits that live in my utility room
