Charliedog Posted April 30, 2022 Report Share Posted April 30, 2022 I shot it (poorly) with my son who shot it really well, been a few times and i thought it was lacking interesting or varied targets compared to previous, still enjoyed it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasper682 Posted May 1, 2022 Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 It's all up on Facebook. Mrs keeps me updated as I'm not on it . Winser had shot some phenomenal score which prob won't get beat. Jasper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wylye Posted May 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2022 Some not very complimentary reports circulating today from people who shot it. Maybe it’s had its day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance of some elaboration/quotes? I’ve shot it the last four years and other than the price increase at the last minute and the cost of the food offerings I found it just as good as previous years.

Smokersmith Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 I heard quite a lot of negatives yesterday ... lots of repetition, very little gun movement required, too many 1/4ering away targets etc ... consistent feedback from all I spoke to.

Poor targets was the main complaint. A lot of quartering away stuff and not much effort made apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm fair enough, everyone has their views/opinions I suppose. It’s the old “you can’t please everyone”. As I’ve said before I found it to be a good event with a good mix of targets and enjoyed it, I’ll be booking in again next year too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylye Posted May 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 I suppose the trek from the West Country didn't help. Its not the easiest of places to get to from this part of the country. Then the expense of overnights etc. etc. Then if you shoot badly its always the shoots fault don't you find? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree completely, I can understand with the long journey’s plus the expense and then not performing as you’d hoped would leave a sour taste. I have the advantage of it being on my doorstep but the lack of knowledge and skill to put in a competitive score 🤣. I’ve done my fair share of travelling to shoot competitions and I stick to blaming my lack of skill (or the people talking behind me ruining my concentration 🤣😂) rather than the course/targets. I made the choice to attend and pay out the £’s and then I didn’t perform….that’s on me 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bostonmick Posted May 8, 2022 Report Share Posted May 8, 2022 i have seen reports saying boring targets all close just like dtl or skeet nothing to make you think.yet i noticed none of the people saying this were in the winners list.as usual they are clever targets that deceive they dont need to be distant or supersonic.

Johnny English Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 I spoke to a couple of guys that had been and said there was a lot of quartering away targets. We've not shot it the last couple of years, just struggling to justify the 4 hour drive. Its not the shoot it was 6 or 7 years ago, back around 2014 to 2015 when we first shot it it was an awesome shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umney531 Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 All people moaning about easy targets did anyone of them come in the top of there classes if it was that easy just wondering I have shot it last six years and it’s still the best shoot of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
