Markio Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I went to Parkford today on my jacks as I had a day off, I went on skeet as it suits my novice eye, had the remote control so had 3 second delay, shot from the gun down position, shot really well felt relaxed, oddly enough I felt like I had all the time in the world to see the clay rather than having the gun in the shoulder which seems to "Tunnel" my vision, what does everyone use to count missed birds ? Pen and paper, unique design, caused many a stir over the centuries. I had the day off too, if i'd known i would have joined you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted August 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 74/100 at Barrow Heath today, maybe 3rd in C(abbage) Class. Quite a hard layout there today, only two guns in the 90s and one was Ed Solomon on 92.... he made stand 9 look very easy by straighting it after everyone got 5 or maybe 6. I sucked out loud on the last two stands to ruin a likely 78 or 80. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) Went to Catton Hall today, with Anni and Timps. Load of old cock We all shot badly, in fact nearly everybody I saw there shot below their usual capability. Perhaps it was a tough course, though it didn't seem so to me. Rubbish scores on the doors : Chard - 76 Craig - 69 Anni - 63 Saw Mr Potter there, he only got 78 which is rubbish for him, though interestingly, Mr Potter Jr. got 90. Well shot that man Bumped into Ron again :look: . Don't know how he did, I'll check out Claysporting in a bit. Some good targets there today, and some dreadful refereeing. I got a moody on the first stand, which lasted for the next 4 stands as well, then I snapped myself out of it and shot the rest of the course very well. If anybody needed proof that sulking affects your score, then I was a prime example today Most of the stuff I missed was on those first 5 stands Edited August 31, 2009 by Chard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 A very lowley 68 ex 100, must and will try harder. Babyface managed 81 which was credible, although he was disappointed with the last layout. 97 was the winning score from lee jackson.
