How did we get on today? 2009 edition.


Recommended Posts

very true paulos,

Stuck a slab of shells through it yesterday at the shooting club and its starting to feel more natural. I love the 32" tubes, steady as a rock, but they are going to take some getting used to.

 

All my hold points have come closer to the trap to allow me to get the extra length going and sorted out some fundamentals that I used to get away with having shorter barrels. I have to pick my kill points more carefully I cant just flick onto the second bird and hope to get away with it. Hopefully the more measured approach will pay off with more consistancy in the long run.

 

Also had some foot placement issues that the missus pointed out, was running out of swing on some birds and "rainbow" swinging. (she may not be that good but she can pick up my schoolboy errors, some of what I taught her stuck :) )

 

Cant wait to get it on the trappy stuff might even give you a run at the next allround :yes: PW daddy 2010 :good::yes: I can only dream of knocking pdlm of his lofty perch :hmm::P???

My slide in form continues. :good:

 

55 or 56 outta 84 at JJ's. Wondered if I was doing right as it took me 30 seconds to get into my low slung car this morning, should have stay laying on the settee feeling sorry for myself and healing up. :oops:

 

Mungler and Broken Man shot a lot better than I did, but not as good as they can do and ended up on 69 and 65 respectively I believe. :good: T'was nice to meet LV and, Broken Man and Chris.

 

I'm going to take a short break from shooting until my body catches up with the gym routine so I'm not as stiff in the torso, and do a lot of dry mounting (fnar fnar) at home and see if anything has changed regarding gun fit and mounting.

60 ex 100 at Aylesbury. Straw baler but sets some nice targets. A Battue and a couple of chondels thrown in so not just 30 yrd floppers. Did another 50 and shot 36 so its going on an upward curve. So much better than the 37ex100 last sunday :good:

 

No hurty cheek either so I think I might well have found the keeper gun :good:

Went to Gatwick today and met up with Trodgrain and a few others - nice little shoot and friendly bunch. 36 ex 50 on sporting (should have been better but hey enjoyed it and thats what counts i suppose) and 22 on skeet.

 

Also did Shawlands in Lingfield yesterday - again nice shoot and friendly people and well worth a visit.

I got 78/100 at Worsley on Saturday, my mate got 82 and I thought we both had quite a bad day

(on some quite easy stands) :yes: .

 

Usual story, I was very pleased with my shooting on the difficult stands, a couple of which I straighted, then I made a complete **** of some easy shots.

Met up with MC at one of his local shoots. Good company, some testing targets and MC did very well.. (I didnt!)

 

 

That was probably the hardest shoot they have hed there for a while. I didn't think that 39/50 was very good until they read out the score. You did well for that shoot.
