Stu S Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Ok, lets talk days then! 9th February 16th February 23rd February 1st March Please indicate which three you can do, that way we can get most people to attend! Stu Can't commit to anything in Feb yet as I have not finalized my vermin shoot days as you are holding it on a saturday. Otherwise I will keep a look out as soon as I can confirm. If it works better, we can always look at Sundays as an alternative. The only issue with Sundays at Lakenheath is that they have NSSA skeet comps every fortnight, so they may or may not be interested in doing something on those days.

AAA MAN Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Would love to be involved but its 200miles away from me, if you were to make it a little side event a biggie everyone would go to, i would def be interested and more p/w members would be likely to be going to that shoot anyway!

dunganick Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 The problems i have had with this are the following: Its very difficult to get the same group of people together at regular intervals, the essex lot are ok, but the rest of us are a bit spread out. Its not always easy to make sure people shoot the same setups (button system at brain tree jumps to mind) To get a proper comp going you would need to make this a monthly type of thing.

Stu S Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 any more takers? I'll set the cut off for date suggestions and availability forn Monday next week at lunchtime. After that, the date will be what it is! Shall we have a bit of variety in the competition just to make it interesting? Perhaps sporting, skeet and DTL?

Markio Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Shall we have a bit of variety in the competition just to make it interesting? Perhaps sporting, skeet and DTL? Good idea, makes the day a bit varied. What are you suggesting? 50 sporting, 25 skeet and 25 DTL? Or more? I'm not so much into the idea of firing off 200+ carts in a day, more into the meet up, bacon roll and a 100 clays in whatever guise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Thats what we did when I organised it in Feb/March this year. From Memory 100 sporting, 25 ESK, 25 Compact Sporting (Which is pants), 25 DTL (Set-up is pants). Still a good day out though.

Mungler Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I am up for it. Has a date and venue been decided (just pick them - you will never get complete consensus). So then, what now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronan nee Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I think this is a good idea you know each winner from each region competes against eachother afterwards and then we will see what part of the country has the best shots. i am up for that regards ronan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavman Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 As I am **** at clays may I suggest we have a comp for peeling shrimps, I am quite good at that and stand a fair chance of winning PS I am in Suffolk and can make most weekends, let me know what you think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu S Posted November 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 I will be finalising details of all of this hopefull by the end of next week. Still need to speak to the range to make sure that they are OK for this, and hopefully i can get a better price out of them for it, or at least throw in some freebies for us!

Stu S Posted November 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 As it now transpires, i am at Lakenheath on Sunday shooting 100 reg English & 100 reg Doubles skeet, so i will have plenty of time to talk with the owner about our little competition. Is this a competition being 'endorsed' by Pigeon Watch UK? I only ask coz it may make some difference! Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu S Posted November 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I think regional competitions are a great idea, especially as that could mean a national competition for the best shots at the regional ones, would be a great idea! Not that i'll make it to the national as a shooter anyways! Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
