Catamong Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 The CPSA have just posted up on their website the entry forms for all of this years major championships, the English Open Sporting is at Doveridge, Staffs, in mid May, and the British Open Sporting is at High Lodge, Suffolk, at the end of August. They are both very good grounds and will put on superb targets, so if you are thinking of having a go this year, get your entry in quick if you want a weekend slot, because these fill up fast. Cat.

dunganick Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 any chance of a bit of info? price? number of birds? difficulty in your experiance? all that sort of thing, i fancy a shot if its not too rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Nick, If you have to ask the cost, you can't afford it matey. They're both 100 bird shoots, probably over 14 stands, with an entry fee of £49, and they will both be relatively hard shoots, with plenty of fast, zippy birds, (whoops, sorry, non-pc, that should read targets), that will catch plenty of people out. I had been shooting for about 15 years before I entered my first major event, I had a very long apprenticeship shooting Woodies before I took up the clays, I simply couldn't afford it. Yes, it's expensive, and you also have to take into account travelling costs, or for many people, loss of earnings if you have to take time off work. Cat.

Suffolk shooter Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Hmmmm?!?! Might give the High Lodge one a go, though don't fancy the birds of the tower much When you up this way again Catamong? SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 No plans to come up your way, I went to Barrow Heath near Newmarket on Sunday, Jeez, was it cold..!! I'd like to come to the Lakenheath bash on 2nd March, (only for the pole dancers.. ), but it means time off work, and I'm pretty busy right now, I'll have to see how things are nearer the time.

Jonsey Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Booked in yesterday for both English and British. Just hope the CPSA get their act together this year with the internet entries. What an almighty cock up last year, even though I booked in months in advance the week before I still hadn't had the paperwork through despite having the email notification.

Jonsey Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 are there no skeet shooters on here? nobody up for the english open at lakenheath in june? Yes I normally enter one of the Skeet Majors, but it'll probably be the British Open at Bisley because it's closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
