MC Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Have you been there? It is quite a good shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter De La Mare Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 77/100 at Dartford on Friday. Nothing else this weekend I think, as I'm getting my *** kicked by a cold type thing at the moment. I'm blowing gallons of watery snot out of my beak all day and feeling like ****.

MC Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I have just shot a 33/40 in the most horrible of conditions, one minute pouring with rain, the next as humid as a tropical jungle. Mosquitoes included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tosspot Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Chard I am of the opinion that you do indeed have "sky" in your part of the world it's just that it's obscured by smog most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catamong Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Wow.........Chard, that's brill, I had the '06 & '07 versions by MC, but I never realised the '08 version was out already, it must be selling like hot tax discs on flea-bay, perhaps if I turn up tomorrow and card a 49 ex 50, MC will give me a signed copy when he cards a 32 ex 50......???

Cat. Cat, Of course I will give you a signed copy, after all you did help me with 99% of the content. The other 1% came from talking to Digweed and Faulds and they told me the excuses you came out with when they kicked your **** at the 1949 World Sporting. OOOOPPPSS Sorry I forgot name dropping is your style. What does it matter If I do shoot a 32/50 today? at least I will have had a laugh with a few mates.

Edward Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I got 40/50 sporting at the South Worcster shooting ground. most of the misses werre from the high towers, so I probley need to choke up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 No youre rong, you need to sort out yaw speling, but once you've done that I suggest you get back there with no more than quarter choke and give it another go. You were probably "off line", so you need to be swinging along the correct target trajectory, it's very easy to miss "over the top" as the target dips away. Choking up is NOT the answer. Cat.

Emmsy Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I got 40/50 sporting at the South Worcster shooting ground. most of the misses werre from the high towers, so I probley need to choke up dont worry, they dont change the targets there much, so you can improve next time. half choke is plenty for any of there targets just get on with it and dont try to 'make sure' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
