shaun4860 Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hi Guys, It seems to me that it is going to be a pretty big PW group of shooters. Victoria and I are happy to drop out as we are really, really new at this and don't want to cramp your style or mess up what is bound to be a nice shoot. Dave, Im not going to this but have been to all 3 of the charity shoots, Its great being able to put faces to names, nobody takes it too seriously, the banter is what its all about. Its the meeting thats the important thing not who hits the most clays. Come to next years charity shoot, you will have already met some PW'rs by then and its a chance to met a lot more next years is back down south, (to be honest they are down south for some of us ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxfordshooter Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 I'm easy, if people would rather meet at the ClayShooting R Us event on 16th Dec then I'm happy to go along too. I've been to the shop there a couple of times, but not to any of their events. There isn't a lot of parking space though - do they open up the field at the back for this? Also there isn't a lot of info about the event on their website, so shall we wait for more details then make a decision closer to the day about which would be a better shooting opportunity for a group? The ClayShooting R Us and the Crazy Bear sites are only 10-15 minutes away from each other in case anybody is wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE_B Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 We use the shop quite a bit, but like Oxfordshooter have never been to one of their shoots. May look at the possibility of doing both as they are so close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huffhuff Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Shoot at the bear, then shop at ClaysRus, followed by a beer somewhere else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxfordshooter Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Great - sounds like the plan is the Crazy Bear followed by the event at the nearby Clay Shooting R Us for those interested. I’m looking forward to meeting some fellow shooters. I’m not sure about the pub option though - I’d feel anxious about leaving my gun in the car as I’m sure that the police wouldn't be impressed if it got stolen whilst I was inside enjoying a cheeky half. Out of interest, what do other people do with their guns if they’re going for food/drinks straight after a shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super sharp shooter Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Take it with you or take part of it with you or park your car where you can see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitchynik Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Sling it over the shoulder like I'm waiting at the next stand and go in and order a pint. In all seriousness it stays in the boot of the car locked away from public view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilR Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 You could remove the forend and keep it in a small bag (wife's handbag) and take it with you. Secure the remainder in the car boot with a bicycle security cable looped through a tie down loop on the boot floor and trigger guard. I think reasonable precautions and if you take a phone pic you've got proof if the car gets nicked or broken into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerdeor Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Have we decided a time and way of meeting yet ? atb Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxfordshooter Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 How about 9.30am in the field out the back of the Crazy Bear where they do the shoot - not the pub car park? I'm happy to get there a bit earlier and put a print-out of the Pigeon Watch logo in my car window (a beige Citroen Xsara Picasso). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxfordshooter Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 For those of you who are planning on coming along tomorrow, the weather forecast is perfect - sunny, dry, mild, with only a light wind. I'll get there before before 9.30am and will have PW signs in my car windows, plus my mobile number in case anybody gets there late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
