Catamong Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Some hot news on Reuters & CBS tonight, Jonsey's won the Wiltshire Ladies FITASC, not only did she pick up the Sporting crown a couple of weeks ago with a stunning performance, but she's gone on to win the FITASC cup on a very tough layout today at Wylye Valley. What's more, she did it without me tutting over her shoulder when she missed an easy quartering away bird..!! :blink: Keep it up Jonesy, hopefully you'll make the England team this year..?? Cat.

pin Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Especially well done as I think I heard she doesn't shoot much gun down these days. Well done Jonesy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonsey Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Especially well done as I think I heard she doesn't shoot much gun down these days. Well done Jonesy! Thanks guys, I hate gun down. I got two gun warnings over the 5 layouts for mounting the gun before the clay was in sight. Damn 3 second delays I heard the trap and that was it. I was the only person to get any. Another warning and I would have been disqualified. The shoot was really tough, I shot the first layout into the sun, and then the last layout in the sun, what can you do. You pay your money get your squad time and that it. Luck of the draw I suppose. I didn't go cakeless yesterday Mungler I had 1 piece for each gun warning :blink: We started t 9.30 and I got home at 6.30 it was a long day, couldn't have done it without the cake. The hardest thing for me yesterday on one of the layouts, it was on peg 3 we'd shot our singles and then we had a simo pair and a raffael pair. The simo pair you actually had to move 180 degrees for the second bird, it was already in the air and it was orange against blue sky. Really hard to move yourself 180 degrees and then spot the bird and shoot it. and then raffael pairs, long rangely high birds, straight afterwards. All you can do is hope for the best. I'll do the Inter-Counties FITASC and then that's it until next year for that. I'll stick to sporting. I think you have to learn to shoot FITASC and you can't do that with only 2 shoots a year. it's just too difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
