Nicky T Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Couldn't stray too far from home today so went to Worsley this afternoon and stuck in an 87 on a decent layout featuring a diverse range of targets. Nice to see Yellowbear there too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claybuster Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Chard how did you finish up at Doveridge today ? I finished on 87 but had a disaster on my last stand & missed 5 which was not that hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) Chard how did you finish up at Doveridge today ? I finished on 87 but had a disaster on my last stand & missed 5 which was not that hard. The whole thing was a disaster for me Keith. I can't shoot Doveridge at all, definite bogey ground. I found the British Open completely demoralising and it's affected my confidence badly. I got 51 in that and today I got exactly the same disastrous score - 51. I hated every minute of it and never got going at all. I think it's a lovely ground, cracking scenery but I hate shooting it. I just can't get any kind of score going. Very odd. I am normally totally unaffected by the difficulty of a shoot or otherwise, I'm usually consistently mediocre but at Doveridge, I'm absolutely useless. Anni was **** too, but better than me with a 60 and Timps did OK with a well-earned 74. I get no pleasure from that, so I probably won't bother with it again.

Ian E Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) 60 Here, it was a tuff shoot, but some great targets that rabbit was awesome ! Should of done better, missed some real bread and butter stuff, but then again did well on a few stands I didn't think I stood a chance on Edited October 31, 2010 by Ian E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azzurri Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Kegworth for me today. It was a really good shoot,the hardest i have shot there for a while A fair few interesting targets that needed thinking about especially the pair over the pond. I was pleased with how i shot,second time out with the new gun,two away on one stand and then seven stands with one away on each of them finishing on a good 91 Azzurri.

Rich, dont get despondent, I missed 2 on the driven because you get complacent. But I bet you missed more in front today than behind (which you was on the driven) But who am I because I bet you shot that simo pair better than me on on the lefthand side starting up the hill Ho but 5 away what would it have been (92). Still theres always next week at Shuggy. Even better I am looking forward to 3.5 weeks in Tenerife shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the pair of L - R looping away ones, I got Loss/Kill, Loss/Kill, Loss/Kill, Loss/Loss I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulos Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Timps and Chard kindly offered me a lift from Manc to Doveridge this morning, however I stayed local and did the skeet and ABT at Spennymoor. Did a 44/50 on the ABT and a 48/50 on the skeet. I don't shoot much ABT so will live with that. Skeet could have been better, but I haven't been shooting much of it lately so can't grumble with that either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesnns Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Hello Mates, I'm new here and from across the pond. I woke early only to find my best friend had to cancell our trip to the range today so i went by myself. I had to find some other shooters to join as I brought my Remington 870 to shoot some clays with and I don't have an electric thrower. I found some great guys to shoot with and popped off over 150 rounds. I averaged 95% today, which is good for me. Rem 870, 28"VR mod choke Winchester game rounds 150 rounds fired, 144 clays hit. Here's my shotgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Shot the Essex Clays (Phil Moss / Scott Greenfield) shoot with Evil Elvis yesterday. Nice little shoot and 5 minutes from home. Some very testing birds and nice scenery. We put in some terrible scores but at least mine was one whole point higher than Bazzas (even with his dodgy adding up) They had the only tea van that didnt have hot water ready so no tea or coffee :blink: and the sausage bap was pretty ropey too. (pretty important clay ground considerations in my book ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Gutted I missed the Phil Moss shoot. I reckoned it was going to be: 1. local 2. testing 3. set up with some thought I understand it was all of the above and I'm gutted I missed it. However, I was taking one for the team this weekend in Centerparcs. Oh hang on, I forgot, if you actually want to type the word "Centerparcs" that will be £10 per usage of the word. I made a silly mistake of 'saying' the word Centerparcs just now and they took £5 from my debit card for each time. My wallet is empty and my bottom sore from the shafting I took. Mind you, that's just any old weekend in Suffolk Oh no, hang on, my wallets not empty - where there was money there is now a big stack of debit card receipts. Centerparcs, the modern euphemism for being "nickel and dimed". I digress.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillmouse Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 I shot a few sporting clays at Coniston and broke the first 21 targets straight then missed the second of the overhead minis on the Pendle layout. I shot a few stands on the other layouts as well and hit 43 ex 50 overall. This is about as good as it gets for me. First time out with my lovely new 682 Ltd and I am a very happy bunny.
