MC Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Last night I met up with MGman at a local clay shoot, Suprising he was a human being, and a half decent one at that. I don't know how he finished up as we were going different directions around the ground. I finished up on 26/30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJN Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I had a distraction on my first stand that cost me dearly if I didn't count that stand I hit 16/24 (in otherwords 17/30) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 The clay off the high tower wanted a lot more lead than it looked, I reckon about 2' 3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four stands took 1/2 hour in all, a very pleasant evening with good company. M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJN Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) I had a distraction on my first stand that cost me dearly if I didn't count that stand I hit 16/24 (in otherwords 17/30) Ah, so if I don't count the three numbers that I got wrong on the lottery last week, I actually won a couple of million? (in other words F/A). if you'd only got three numbers wrong you'd have won £10 like I did :-) anyways as I said I hit 17/30 from all 4 stands. M.

MC Posted July 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Well technically if I hadn't shot at the 4 I missed I would have straighted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJN Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 If the ball had gone in the back of the net it would have been a goal, Yep I missed 13 yes 13 easy ones. theres always next time, I expect I'll miss even more :-) especially if we have pretty distractions walking around.

Andy 01 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Sorry for a bit of a thread hijack, but would any of you Colchester guys be prepared to let a complete novice come and have a try one day ? Just so you know, I'm a 40 year old family man, and the safety officer and committee member for Iceni-Marksmen. We use the ground on a Sunday for Field Target Air Rifle, so I'm no stranger to shooting sports. Always been curious to try, and would be willing to pay for carts and any other expenses. I have a cabinet, but never sent off the SG application form, as I would like to know its for me before spending any money on it.
