Mungler Posted April 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I would be happy with a 51% strike rate i.e. more hit than missed I understand it's a very tricky set up and have heard this from all over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 I think I said 70% on the easier shoot and 50% on the harder, which I will stick too. If I shoot well I should do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 If I shoot to my average I should do a 175, however I've never done it at that ground, and my score is usually in the 160 - 165 range. The weather forecast for next weekend looks good already, so that's one excuse I can't play. Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I will be aiming to hit every clay. I believe that if you aim for 100% you will hit 75%. If you aim for 80% you will hit 50%. I will be happy by beating Mungler in all truth so 52% will be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pin Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1531 Summary: Colder (15c) and windy (17mph westerly) on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Well folks, the event is now underway, and the early scores will soon be posted. Jonsey & I have used a complex mathematical formula to accurately predict the scores of all the PW members shooting this Friday. This method is based upon certain known factors such as age, Body Mass Index, number of PW posts, ability to spell correctly, and whether there's an "r" in the month. :blink: The predicted scores will be posted on Friday, once you guys are at the ground and out of laptop range. Have a good day. Cat PS - I can't believe Jonseys prediction for Munglers score - will he be using a single barrel .410..?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I think you should post the predicted scores so we can see them prior to shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonsey Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Oh God, I really wanted to change my Mungler prediction..............I'm scared for my life now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 I think you should post the predicted scores so we can see them prior to shooting :blink: 'Fraid not, we don't want to accused of match fixing. As we've both shot the event before, we both know what to expect, I'm sure other factors may well influence the outcome, such as the quantity of alcohol consumed the night before, and whether Mungler really can get through 2 Mega Breakfasts at the Cafe in Halstead.

Mungler Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Don't worry about me, I have my lucky hat.... but more on that after the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Early indications from my sources at the ground indicate that it is a real toughie, Jonsey's predictions of a dire outcome for all may well be about right. Take you prayerbooks..!! Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 But what is deemed a toughie to one may well be simple to another. I shot a local club shoot tonight and got 31/40. The ones that most were struggling on I shot well on and the ones that looked easy I missed loads. I am under no illusion that it is going to be easy but as I have said before, I am going with the positive attitude. It would be easy to say that I am aiming for 40% and then be chuffed with 50%. I have set my sights alittle higher than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gully Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Cat, you don't say whether Body Mass Index counts for or against a high score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonsey Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 I would just like to say in my defence that BMI or age did not feature in my complex algorithm for predicting the final PW scores. That would just be rude after all I am no Kate Moss myself. I didn’t own up to Cat but I was already in receipt of the morning’s scores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Just out of interest what are the scores and are they up on a webby yet for all and sundry to see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonsey Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Nah there's no website it's just a straw bale shoot, on a grand scale of course. 1 big tent with a few scrappy tables in it, a burger van (not much cop) and some portaloo’s and that's your lot, oh and maybe the GMK stand will be there. Some friends of mine shot it yesterday and they kept me posted on how they were doing and some other peoples scores too. On the whole they said it was very enjoyable. I wish I was doing it now, I was originally booked in for the Saturday but then had to cancel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put as out of our misery, as to whether we stand a chance of hitting something SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 No point missing them before you get there. Turn up and shoot at every target as well as you can, thinking about how hard its going to be will only make you miss more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonsey Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Arh Pin you're absolutely right. It'll be a great shoot I assure you, you'll all do well and more importantly have a great day out. We are just having some fun predicting the scores that's all. One of my friends is AA and he shot bang on his average, he said he could have done better. They all said it was very enjoyable and well worth the journey. John put on some excellent targets as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
