I quite agree that to attend and not shoot is poor, and the charity would not benefit ! Looking forward to finding out the location and date of the 2015 shoot.

Will Poon Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 There's plenty of women shooters at last years charity shoot, so there's no need to feel awkward if you think you may be the only one there. All abilities are more than welcome as its a fun charity day shoot for a worthy cause plus lots of raffle prizes to suit everyone. Usually there's quite a number of us staying at a hotel nearby the night before to meet up and have meal...and a drink or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoot and be safe Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 The good lady attended last year as my cheerleader/cartridge carrier/loader. She wasn't a member on PW so all she could do was spectate. She did buy raffle tickets on my behalf though:ninja: Hopefully I can persuade her to join in this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want the southern contingency worried, I'm not thinking of joining in Thinking about coming to watch. Don't be shy , come and shoot. The scores out of 100 are between 30's and low 90's, so space for everyone . We usually attract around about 80 shooters with the top 10 on each team's scores to count. It is a very good fun day out with lots of ribbing. Have a look on the web site for the history and scores of the past years.Perhaps someone could put a link on 'cause i'm thick. from Auntie.

I actually thought it was two teams NvS competition. And yes I am that bad at clays so didn't want to burden the southernern contingent. Thanks for the explanation.

But us ladies aren't even remotely interested in boobies and I'm sure there'll be a lady or two shooting ?You gonna come along Ali? New, extended clubhouse at Hodnet more than big enough for the PW massive. Agree that they let us down re. markers/refs but I'm sure that could be addressed for future visits. Mr Potter Indeed, by far the best clay ground!! Edited January 20, 2015 by Paul223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud dog Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 If you need a good pub afterwards the Stanton arms 5 mins down the road from Hodnet is very hospitable. Colin does cracking food, had a couple of late ones after shooting there. Brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I really enjoyed last year, albeit I'm rubbish on the clays and don't shoot a shotgun enough (around 75% rifle 25% shotgun I reckon). I scored 46 which I was chuffed with for me, (only done clays a few times before) The hardest bit was shooting infront of a squad of people watching my every move - and on the first stand which was an easy one I missed nearly all of them like a true muppet - but then by stand 2 and getting to know everyone on my squad better I started to feel comfortable and in fact seemed to hit the ones people struggled with more and missed the easier ones... odd! I was also using a old under and over shotgun that until just before the event was broken (firing pin snapped) but even then I had offers from members on here offering me the use of their spare if I couldn't use my own - which was very humbling and lovely. This year I might do the night before and have a few pints and get to know some people if it's further up north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
