The Jackson Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 I've had e worst day for years shooting today. I've been out roost shooting with mate and I couldn't hit anything.

I've come away wanting to get rid of my auto after today.......aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh For sale 1 immaculate Hatsan Escort semi auto in great condition only a few months old Rant over.

Cannon Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 You're some sportsman. If you can't enjoy or appreciate the bad with the good, shooting might not be for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jackson Posted February 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Don't get me wrong I always enjoy a day out shooting. Just had an off day with my own ability to shoot. Disappointing when I'm normally notma bad shot. Frustrating might be the best word Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Gould Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 every one has off days, not all of it may of been your or your guns fault. if you had extra layers on for the cold weather may of changed the way the gun is mounted, if you changed choke or changed from your normal shell this could also change the out come of things. i never get p***ed off with down days i just put them down as a learning day Happy shooting Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaxiDriver Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 I have taken the view that "I just enjoy getting out and making a noise" Keeps the pigeons/rabbits on their toes and the landowner hears that I'm about Doesn't seem to frighten the clays though.
