MC Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I did a 25/30 at my local club yesterday, I then shot a 2 man 40 bird flurry with another young lad and we straighted it which was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking forward to hodnet at all I'm sure the freezing rain didn't help matters - the weather gradually got worse as I was going round too You'll be right for Hodnet; must have been the fact you were off PW over Xmas that caused today's blip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Potter Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Went to Catton Hall today with the boy + 5 heathens (non PWers) The boy shot quite well, was on for a 96 with only 3 or 4 stands to shoot but faded (pressure??) away to an 88. More than respectable score but probably nowhere near enough to get a pick-up, a couple of top shots turned up as we finished shooting (they had either come from Doveridge/Kingsley Moor or had enjoyed a lie in and a cooked breakfast) Even so the boy put me firmly in my place, I started well enough just 6 away after the first 7 stands but then started missing 3 birds on a succesion of stands. Only dropping 1's on the "harder" stands, the 3's were on the bread & butter stands Finished on a disappointing 79 so, as usual, went home swearing but soon forgotten and am already looking forward to Hodnet, weather permitting. Bumped into Yellow Bear and had a good chat but he was well gone by the time we finished so I don't know what he finished on.

Mr Potter It was that bad I am not saying , however, but the time I got home my throat was raging, and my nose running like a tap - hope I did not infect you Mr P. :blink: That's my excuse Of to the hot toddies now, need to be right for Thursday Edited December 27, 2009 by Yellow Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulos Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 As Nicky said, Doveridge was fairly tricky yesterday - a lot rangier than all of the shoots I have been to there in the past. I was gutted with the way I finished, I started strongly and had only dropped a few by the time I was half way round...then I had a devastating few rounds which completely sucker punched me. I dropped 15 over 3 stands and that knocked me for 6, the confidence just drained away Finished somewhere in the low 70's. I'm not doing any more for a while, I need to improve drastically otherwise I am just throwing money down the drain Good to see Nicky and Ron kicking about, sorry I didn't stop and chat Ron, but I was just about to step into the cage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonD Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 20, 18, 20 & 16 today on the skeet. Consistently hitting more so hopefully the elusive straight soon Cold and horizontal rain didn't help, I was frozen by half way round the last round Need the practice, next reg'd on the 10th Jon.

JonD Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 20, 20, 17, 19, 18 on the skeet this morning, lots of stupid misses.

Bigweed Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Shot Southdown registered this morning with PDLM and his mate - that had to be the toughest shoot I've been to. 49/100 - says it all really. What a way to start the year. Still got a lot to learn. Don't think i read much of anything correctly other than the first stand we shot.

Catamong Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Southdown generally put on a toughie. although I would have thought they might have eased up a tad for todays shoot. I'll bet the layout was set by Sean, (Daves son), he puts some silly targets on, no need for it. Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tosspot Posted January 1, 2010 Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 Gave up the will to live at the above shoot started ok then two trap breakdowns ho hum (no change there) three more stands and another broken trap, so i went home simples pity how the place is going only really went to play on the compact (pool) shoot but that wasn't running missed a trick there as there were over 200 shooters there Northall tomorrow anyone?

Peter De La Mare Posted January 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2010 As Biggers said, southdown was a little tough today, plus I think I was off form after not much sleep last night. As a guide, A Balham who normally wins AA class there with 96 or 95 only shot a 86. High gun when we left was 90. My 63/100 was disappointing, I didn't even bother some of the birds. A bad start to the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
