I am up for it.

Shot it today. Great course. 63 on first round, 77 on second. Just shows how you need to concentrate!!!

Had the misfortune to follow an A class shooter who on every stand until stand 10 insisted on seeing the clays from the front of the stand even though on most occasions he had watched at least 3 others shoot the stand and then insisted on seeing the targets from inside the cage. When challenged...

Had the honour of shooting with Steve today. Shot like a complete novice but following him saved me an absolute disaster particularly on the overhead sim pair. Watching him on the tower with the left to right was awe inspiring. I think even he would admit to dropping at least 6 shots so a 94/95...

Try Mainstone Hill. Its on the military ranges at Purbright Military Camp. Only about 8 miles from you. Friendly ground but need to contact them for your first visit to arrange entry. £90 a year membership, then £25 per hundred birds. Also have a good compact layout. Can shoot on your own if you...

I work at Churchill's and referee on the CPSA shoots when work permits and only get paid the minimum hourly wage. Only exception was the World Sporting Championship which was £80 a day. The first 4 hours just about covers my travelling costs after the taxman has had his share.

Matt Many of us at EJC are shooters as well as refs/scorers. Any chance you can arrange with RF for us to have a go at the competition. Thanks in advance

Will 95 was top gun.

Sian It was nice to meet up with you and tony and many thanks for the kind comments. Makes the job worthwhile with me to look after sporting shooters. I hope you enjoyed your visit to EJC and enjoy the world championships. Graham B

Unfortunately like Mainstone Hill (Pirbright) on the hill opposite the site is classified as one of Special Scientific Interest - Triple rating - so Natural England now demand that only fibre wads are used. At Pirbright we have had to have organized clean ups so the ground can stay open. Just...

When you book just ask for Graham B to take you round. I will give you tips on each stand before you shoot. Remember its all about enjoying the challenge!!!

Would you mind if I joined in. I know Will and Matt so would be some familiar faces!!

Please don't forget you all have the right to appeal your scores with the ground/cpsa, hence a reason for the slight delay in pay out. With 12manned stands the overheads increase. Bear in mind that clay and ground staff costs equate to at least £28 per 100 excluding the scorer/referee costs and...

Don't forget Mark Marshall at E J Churchill

Only 5 are full size, the other 20 are midi's. It fools you into think they are higher than they really are. Play the percentage game on the pairs by staying on the same clay if you miss it with the first shot.
