TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 What a cracking event, great ground, great targets, great company, great weather and a great deal of money raised for a very good cause! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul taylor Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Sure was a cracking day. Great to put faces to names, lovely place to shoot and the wind made it a little more entertaining too. I can feel I've caught the sun though! Won a rifle case that Mr Will poon donated and a day's shooting with Fenboy to look forward to as well so a happy boy today. Thanks to all that organised the day and those who gave the raffle prizes allowing us to raise a good lump of cash for a worthy cause 👍 Oh and by the way the NORTH WON AGAIN 😃😃😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course another victory for the North :yahoo: Thanks to everyone who helped organise the shoot and to all the staff at Orston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDog Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 I attended the shoot as a spectator. I would like to say that I had a prior engagement this morning but in reality my late arrival was out of cowardice and fear that my shooting abilities (or lack of them) would be laid bare for all to see. This was an excellent event and a very worthy cause. Well done to those who organised the various constituent parts and to those who travelled great distances to attend. The venue seemed to suit very well. The home made cakes went down a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 JDog you should have worn your cap so we could recognise you. Neil on our squad wore a smaller version and a few thought that he was you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The venue seemed to suit very well. The home made cakes went down a treat. If you look at the scores you will see just how much they vary , I am guessing like myself a large amount of the shooters are not regulars at clay grounds ( it was my first visit to a registered ground ) Hopefully next year you will pluck up the courage to join us.

shoot and be safe Posted May 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 A fantastic day had by all. It was a pleasure to shoot with Old Farrier again and with the other chaps in our squad. Nice to catch up with old pals and meet new ones. A fantastic amount raised and a good victory for the North yet again Although there could be a steward's inquiry yet I was made up with my score, as it is my personal best. The Good Lady also enjoyed the day (only her 5th full round of clays) and with a score of 32. She enjoyed the day that much, I even bought her the gun that OF very kindly lent her for the day. Thanks to all involved in making the day happen and sorry I pinched all Mr Potter's raffle prizes Hopefully see you all again next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Elvis Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Great day as usual, lots of old familiar faces and a few new ones. What a lovely group of people, and an event that's well run and fun one of the highlights of my year for the last six years!!! I shot a 79 which I was disappointed with I thought I was shooting better than that Then my wife pointed out I had only 3 hours of sleep due to getting in at 3 Am from a prodigy gig ( was still buzzing all day)and due to work Commitments haven't shot since the Masters So all in all I'll take it but annoyed that I dropped 4 clays on the last stand!!! DOH Fab day out thanks to Martin2 for picking me up and putting up with my wittering on the way And snoring on the way back!!!!!!

reggiegun Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Excellent day, well done Teal and team. Good to see everyone and special thanks to Shoot and be Safe, for giving my son Gingar the prize of a Forge Day with OF, he was badgering OF all Saturday night in the hotel bar about it. A lot of barracking from the 3 southern guys in our squad, which resulted in my poor score. Lol. Plus I won the stick of OF, result!
