Bigweed Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 The alternative listed in the email. 3 x man team shoot consisting of 50 bird sporting and a 75 bird 3 x man flush (total of 225 targets per team). won't that mean changing all the teams - thought we were all set with 5 man teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Let's do the white bear shoot, I like flurries :blink: I get to do an Arnie impression Yeah.......right on......when they all sail over your head unbroken.............I'll bet you shout....................."I'll be back".

Bagsy Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 To hell with it, let's all go on the pi$$ instead. Pub crawl up Sarfend seafront then wake up next to some crocohorrordogapig, suffering from a chronic headache, dogs breath and feeling a bit itchy. Second thoughts, Dartford or the White Bear shoot sound much better :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigweed Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 What's it going to be then - we gone a vote on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Yeah.......right on......when they all sail over your head unbroken.............I'll bet you shout....................."I'll be back". Cat. Better that than doing an impression of the black guy in Terminator 2 and being a coward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markio Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 What's it going to be then - we gone a vote on it Yeah come on, we need more venues before we can put it to a poll. So far: 3 Man Flush, Dartford, Highlodge, Fyfield (Aug 22nd). Any more suggestions? They can't be our only options?! Flushes might be fun but just like my sex life, it's all over before i've loaded both barrels. Personally i'd like to stick to a 100 bird sporting format.

Peter De La Mare Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Southdown have registered 100 Sporting and 100 Sportrap. They allow non-cpsa guns to take part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Southdown? Too many miles and on a bank holiday weekend? Pete, you must just love traffic jams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigweed Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Well it looks like it's coming down to Dartford then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Is there any reason why we can't do the White bear shoot? surely 3 x 5 man teams just become 5 x 3 man teams? I don't know about anyone else but I would rather avoid the M25 on a Bank Holiday weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I think the White Bear will be poop, but I would do it to support Glen De doo dah. It's a real shame the May's team shoot has fallen through. Rumours on the jungle vine are rife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyoftheboy Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 HERE nasty stretch of the M25 on bank holi weekend then..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter De La Mare Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 It's not as bad as you all make out. I've driven that stretch over the holiday weekend loads of times without issues. Besides, from Bigweed's location, there are 'backroads' to take to get there. Besides, on the Monday the traffic won't be bad, as the rush is on Friday afternoon or Sat early, and then late Monday. Everyone is where they want to be already on the Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 You would have to be certifiable to consider the M25 or any M road on a bank holiday Monday. Failing all else the return trip would be awful. White Bear first thing followed by Dartford - could get 100 ESP in easy and then if the old men want to then do skeet it's all laid on? I will of course be obliged to shoot the skeet with my pump action to prove a point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatcatsplat Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 From memory, i think Dartford has a compact layout as well with 5 stands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigweed Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 4 Skeet layouts (one Olympic), 4 trap layouts (one Olympic, 2 DTL and ABT), Sport Trap and of course 100 ESP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 I know a couple of grounds in Cornwall and then one in south west Wales, How about we do those instead. One has a 25 bird compact and the others are DTL. In case you hadn't worked it out I am not really taking this seriously Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
