bostonmick Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 a serious question do you think there is any value to forums like this or is it just a place for wind ups and light banter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchy trigger Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I have found that there is some very good information on here, along with some very helpful members, just ignor the ****s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Lots of value I would say , you only have to see the amount of people helping each other out in various ways Then there are the get togethers such as this weeks clay flush. Lots of newbies get loads of good advice and help . And lots of new like minded friends can be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Made a fair number of friends on here and have had a shedload of brilliant advice. Whatever the subject, someone on here can cover it. I appreciate there are some wind-ups. I have been in a couple myself, but that's forum life. Show me a better forum and I will plait sawdust, whilst juggling soot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I have found loads of very useful information on all maners of shooting and more from here. I speak about the PW forum all the time and would love to meet more of the members face to face in the future. Yes, there is some biccaring - but that will happen a lot when there are lots of people from different walks of life on one forum. however just take it with a pinch of salt :-). I certainly wouldn't have achieved all I ahve with shooting so far without this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfireboy Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 It can be entertaining, I think some people on here know what they're talking about, some want to argue, more so on here than on some other forums. Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beanieboy Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 This forum is an excellent source for information - I have been shooting for 35 years and am amazed how little I know compared to many of the chaps here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 A bit of light hearted banter is great. Can't be serious all the time just like in life. A laugh with mates can be a good medicine that's needed sometimes. Plenty of good advice and info freely given and received. Great forum and members.

JKD Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Agree with all the above,,,, PW is the best shooting forum I'm a member of, full of very helpful guys with help and info on ALL subjects going both ways. A bit of teasing amongst it all keeps things light,,,, IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRNDL Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 This is a great forum and it connects people from across the UK. Without P.W I would not have had the invites out shooting and most probably still be shooting clay's only at £50.00 a 100. Thanks to, Pigeon Man Sean Rico Caeser philmypower Archie1234 (Date TBC) For their invitations and the opportunity to spend a day with them shooting.
