TIGHTCHOKE Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 Arguably one of the best shooting ground in the country, they may even leave the same targets on from the English Open which is being held there two weeks prior to the PW bash!!! Hope you've tied them down to exactly what you want though Teal, I thought their treatment of us at the inaugural PW shoot was nowhere near as good as the subsequent grounds. Not enough referees for the numbers advised and the distinct impression they couldn't wait to see the back of us during the raffle (which, due to the huge number of donated prizes, went on for a very long time!) Targets were brilliant that day but I think it will be forever remembered for the RAIN. See you all there Capt. Potter Great ground and the lack of referees was always a problem there. Let's hope that aspect has imptoved as the targets presented were some of the best and the way they use the ground is wonderful to behold!

derfley Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 In two minds about it for this year, it's about an extra hour for me over Orston from last year (2:45'ish from Hull) and a overnight stay is a non starter due to work Anyone else from Hull or the surrounding area going this year? Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoot and be safe Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) So then, who is coming for definite. A few are booked into the local knocking shop Premier Inn, one is struggling to find somewhere that hasn't been warned about him and some of us are travelling in the morning. So then who's in? The list so far:- SABS The Good Lady Shaun4860 Bunnykiller PhilR Salop Sniper Smokersmith Leeds Chimp (if he can find digs and quarantine allows him past the M1) Fenboy Danger-Mouse James 1983 If I've missed anyone please add yourself If I've added you and you can't make it, shame on you please make your excuses below. Anyone else care to join in the fun for a good charitable cause? Edited January 27, 2016 by shoot and be safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentalmac Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I'll be there :-). Might actually do a bit of practise before this one too.... I'll have only been back in the UK for a matter of a few hours but that's ok as it'll double up as a good excuse for missing a lot Edited January 27, 2016 by Mentalmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenboy Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 3 hours travel! No excuse I do not relish the thought of a 3 hr drive after being up best part of 20 hrs and I would be cutting it rather fine to get to the shoot on time . Hopefully I will come up with a solution .
