EdSolomons Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 good man. slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Keep working at it and scores will go up and consistency will start poking its head out! If you dont have enough strength in your forearms I found that 4 hours of masturbation a day builds it up. Hard work but success dont come easy....

SidneyG Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Did the Olympic Trap GB shoot at bisley on the weekend. First time I have ventured into a GB shoot for a year or two. Light was pretty bad, and it was pretty cold which didn't help. Shot a 74 on day one, 81 on day 2, 155 ex 200. Pleased with that for a 'Wheely'. Forgot how friendly and how much fun the bigger shoots are. Shot next to Ed Ling all day, really nice guy. Exceptions to every rule no doubt, but im sure in this shooting game the bigger the star, the nicer they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Well shot Coniston today, the targets had been set by Keith Roe and were trying, with maybe a tad too many distancy, hanging in the air type clays which proved difficult. I think Phil Rowbottom won it with an 89, Martin Mayers and Graham Sturzaker 84/85, I think top lady had a 70 which i believe was Linda Grayson second i believe was Rachael Carrie on a 68 and i struggled to get 65 but i don't know where that put me in the ladies. I then drove back to Marne Barracks for a 40 bird charity shoot where i only managed a 24 and just scrapped by to an embarressing win in ladies . I think Steve Masters won the shoot with a 35, but i.m sure Mr Potter will post soon with more up to date scores from Coniston and Northern Gunner will update us from Marne. from a tired old buzzard Auntie...

Wake up Auntie, Scores update from Marne as follows: High Gun: Steve Masters 35/40 Joint Second: Mike Foster and John Hutchinson 33/40 Veteran: John Ord 31/40 Ladies: Auntie 24/40 Junior: Tim Flintoft 21/40 99 entries and total raised from Shoot and Raffle for Organ Donors Charity was just over £900 Many Thanks to all who attended and also the helpers on the day. An excellent result apart from having to handover the High Gun to STEVE :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted April 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Attended the charity shoot today at Park Lodge.. What a beautiful gang hut. The targets were good and varied, and the rain held off untill around lunch time. High Gun was Shaun Bramley on 110/120, 2nd was Mike Pennington on 105, I shot round with Mark Wild and Shaun Gory, Shaun and I ended up 90/120 which earned Shaun 1st in class and me 1st in ladies. I think "cant hit a thing" got a 2nd in class. A good time was had by all and hopefuuly lots of money was made for the charity. The weather put a bit of a downer on attendance with around 90 shooters on the day.from Auntie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
