Yellow Bear Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 At least I didn't miss my very first bird of the competition!! t'was a pleasure meeting you. Having just driven 200+ miles and not been fed I think he did well to only miss the first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beretta Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 cheers chard pdlm dissapeared for a while at one stage but when i looked he was at the 'JAM' stall and yes, they did have a jam stall. all in all with all the detours due to crashes on the way down and way back. what should have been a 276 mile one way trip, turned into a 331 mile hike there, and 352 mile return. in all 12.25 hours driving for onr shoot. no wonder i cant be bothered with all that nowadays. like i said before, the shoot was mediocre and im sure someone on form will be in the 113/115 easy enough. nothing to really challenge the shooter. or it might be me just wanting more challenging birds.

I bet he did the PDLM shuffle and you did the Beretta twitch It was a summer boogie Jam-fest you went to really, not a shooting competition.

MC Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 At least Tosspot will be OK if they have got a jam stall, PDLM, I told you to send your brother, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 I suppose it would be naive to ask why they would have a jam stall at the Beretta World thingey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter De La Mare Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 The stall also supplied water, which was the reason for my visit. There was also an amazing ice cream stand, the best I've had....proper ice cream, the vendor was insulted when I asked for strawberry sauce. He said 'this is real ice cream, you don't put ******g sauce on it!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 You heathen I suppose you put tomatoe ketchup on a fine fillet steak as well? No wonder you only shot 87/120. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaseone Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 101 for me but how would you know if you had to go back (I know I dont) but a lad on our squad shot 113 and would have to travel from Suffolk tomorrow If he knew NO WEB UPDATE :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 That's surprising. King George and Ben Husthewaite both shot on Friday and don't appear to have made it through. How strange. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 That's surprising. King George and Ben Husthewaite both shot on Friday and don't appear to have made it through. How strange. No, not at all, when you consider the way they set the shoot out. Everybody ends up getting totally different targets, as one trap runs out, they start buttoning another one alongside it. :blink: Now how fair is that,,?? Cat.

Peter De La Mare Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I dunno about that. I didn't see multiple traps for each stand, of the ones where I could actually see the traps. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beretta Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 i saw most traps and none were doubled up cat but i know what you mean. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catamong Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 George did not shoot it (i was with him) and they had no double traps Well, they did last time I shot it, perhaps someone's told them it's not exactly the done thing. I just had a call from Martin, he shot a 97 , but Chezza did a 106. His verdict............bit of a straw bale shoot, nothing to get at all excited about. Cat.
