Nicky T Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Are any PW'ers planning on going to shoot it? Just got this email about it from Coniston SG: "Dear Members, This coming Sunday the 19th July, the shooting ground will be hosting this years last round of the England Team Sporting Selection Shoot. Entries will be from 9-30 to 1pm. With the success of our last sporting shoot, we have again enlisted the help of Keith Roe to help with the course setting. The competition is a registered event (ear and eye protection compulsory) but for those of you who are not members of the CPSA we have bought day passes for you to have a go. It will be a 100 bird event held over 14 stands, early forecasts suggest our highest turnout(250! Maybe). We are looking for anybody interested in being a referee for the day, so if you have had any experience before please let us know, either by e-mail, phone, shouting or carrier pigeon! Due to the size of this event the Skeet and DTL layouts will not be open for practise, Kind Regards Peter, Luke, Martin, Becci, Nigel and Simon" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All sorted now, my tailor has knocked me up this little ensemble : I've got a deerstalker hat and a monocle for eye protection Tally-ho chaps. Might as well reserve that spot on the England team for me now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 I have the pleasure of entertaining mumsy this week from Thursday, so my weekends shooting activities are severely curtailed, else I'd have been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter De La Mare Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 too far for southerners, plus the targets will be to hard anyway. Pah, wot rubbish! The targets will all be going away trap type, or the whole comp will be held on a skeet layout, we all know the north can't shoot anything else.
