Good shooting there Jon..

 

You shoot at weekends and in the evenings?

 

Must be loaded :hmm:

 

Shooting during the week doesn't happen very often lol

 

 

Well done Jon, hopefully that magic ton is just around the corner. :yes:

 

You'll have to think of a new challenge then. :hmm:

Hopefully in the next year or so, have only shot 1x25 straight in the 14 months i have been shooting, think I need to get some coaching. Still shooting swing through and keep being advised to shoot maintained for skeet.

 

 

Shooting another one is a challenge in itself!!

 

Well shot Jon :good:

 

Cheers Paulos, I agree, shooting a second will be a mission, let alone a first.

Jon, if you want some proper coaching at skeet, try Alan Warren at Bisley, he's a dedicated skeet shot, you'll learn a lot from him.

 

For what it's worth, I shoot maintained lead on skeet, I never chase the bird, 'cos my barrels are always in front of it, (on singles of course). :blink:

Went to Spennymoor today for the North of England Sporting Championships and shot with Chard and Timps. Nice to see Paulos and Auntie there as well as meet Azzuri too :yes: Anni was supposedly meeting us there but must have been kidnapped :)

 

As expected it was a relatively tough layout today; nothing disgustingly difficult but a combination of illusive angles and speeds made for a no-gimmes style round. Interestingly out of the 24 targets shown (12 stands in total), 17 of them were presented edge on :yahoo:

 

Having left a very wet Manchester, the weather at Spennymoor was kind to us staying dry in the main and consequently scores on the doors were as follows:

 

Azzuri 89 - another cracking performance :sick:

Auntie 82 - very nicely done with the new gun :lol:

Paulos 80 - ******* student :yahoo:

Nicky T 69 - some out of body experiences on some stands :sick:

Timps 68 - started off on fire but a couple of delays hijacked a potentially good card :lol:

Chard 63 - not his best day but will be back with a vengence when he realises that he needs PW in his life :yahoo:

Then a shoot off for 200 carts, 1st place, 150 for 2nd and 100 for 3rd - only managed 3rd but won another 100 carts in the lucky dip so not a bad day - £35 and 200 carts

 

Good to meet JonD and Reefcat as well

 

Also Saw Evil Elvis, Dangerous Dave having a go at Skeet, auto ball trap and Sport Trap

Well shot chaps and chapettes :sick: Especially Auntie :lol:

 

I enjoyed the shoot today, a lot of edge on stuff, but enough variety to balance it. I can't put my finger on what I was doing wrong though, just missing too many daft ones here and there :hmm:

 

I went down to Marne after and won it with a 54/60. Shot a 25 straight on the newly souped up ABT as well.....which was nice :)

Enjoyed the shoot at Spennymoor today, bumped into Nicky T , another face to a name and well done considering you're still jet lagged mate :sick:

Also saw a couple of mates from the north east and beyond that i haven't seen for nearly 10 years :sick::lol: How time flies !!

Had a laugh with Chard following his Everest Ascent up the hill with the dodgy steps (i think my mate built them ! ) then i went and missed three of the going away targets on the stand near there :yes: managed to hold it together pretty well after that to finish in the money..... a fiver in change :yahoo: Can you beat that one B :):yahoo::lol:

Targets were pretty good although a bit edgy in parts but on the whole would have been enjoyed by most people.

Kingsley Moor today -- I usually walk to far end to start and on way bumped into Ron who has started shooting again and Nicky T - this was on stand 10 so I joined them for 11-13 and just felt I had to show them how to do it - then it was back to stand 10 for me as they went off -- this was start of slippery slope and it gradually got steeper the more stands I shot untill I got to field and slope became a cliff face and I fell off - :yes: - never shot so carp for ages so I gave myself a kick up backside and went home.

 

Dave :good:
