TIGHTCHOKE Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 The new owners of Orston Shooting Ground in Nottinghamshire have created a new competition for September. I wonder if it will rival the Essex Masters? https://www.orston.com/hk-cup-2025/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two 75 bird courses shot on the same day. Both courses supposedly of similar difficulty. Looks like great fun. Would be good if we can get a PW Squad booked in.
