Nicky T Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Rangey stuff, eh? We'll have to give that a go. Good day out at the Promatic beanfeast at Kegworth today. Very good shoot, if you like loopers Scores on the doors : Azzurri - 87 Fantastic shooting again, chap Mr Potter - 81 Good stuff Chard - 75 better than yesterday, at least. Timps - 75 Copycat Anni 55 Not a looper fan I had a really duff start, then started shooting a lot better but the damage was done. I hit some stonking difficult stuff, but missed too many bread and butter clays Had a nice chat with Azzurri, top bloke. That's what I like about clay shooting, everybody seems to know everybody Nicely done chaps Bad back on the mend then Chard :o Glad to see that Anni is alive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azzurri Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Chard, I think a dark horse could have shot that looper better than me today but it was a good shoot with a good mix of targets. Nice to put a face to the name If it was another 10 yards further it would have broken Azzurri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to put a face to the name If it was another 10 yards further it would have broken Azzurri Good to meet you today, and well shot. I managed 2 out of 4 of those nutter ****** things in the car park. Didn't that want some lead? :hmm: Trouble was though, that I was so shocked to see the first one break, that I missed the easy going away thing I don't think I've ever shot that far in front of a clay It was like shooting empty sky Edited August 30, 2010 by Chard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timps Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Timps - 75 Copycat Matching tops & matching scores people will talk about us ..... Started off well and finished well just a shame about the middle 3 traps, my excuse was I wanted a wee real bad on those stands ..... The car park stand was just unbelievable I could not get my head round the amount of lead I had given it and it broke, I was very happy with 6 on that stand. Overall a good day out with some nice targets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azzurri Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 I've just checked out Roundwood's site,the place looks just like it used to..... Brilliant !! Just corporate and tuition now by the look of it, shame really. Does anyone know anything different ? Azzurri. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant !!Just corporate and tuition now by the look of it, shame really. Does anyone know anything different ? Azzurri. Cat would probably know, he mentioned Roundwood in an old thread a year or two back - HERE. He didn't mention that you couldn't go there and just shoot a round. I must say it doesn't look as though you can on their website though I fancy a go at that tower, I reckon I could hit them, it's the close stuff I can't hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmsy Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 74/100 at Longridge today for me. A very diverse mix of targets with some nice rangey intermingled; Chard would have loved it Very enjoyable day out; beautiful ground/setting, pleasant and friendly staff and glorious sunshine Well worth the trip out and will definitely be on the calendar again keep going Nicky if you want rangey make sure you go to his extreme shoots, your see 20+ft of lead on some stuff. i blew it, dropped 4 floppers on the stand in the field round the back and finished on 91, 92 won the shoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
