    Ed Lyons strikes again!

    Ok,so I have fairly good eyes,never needed glasses etc. I found that when I concentrated hard on hanging crows mostly,I would get a slight double vision. Also locking onto targets clearly was taking a little time. After speaking with Ed,I made an appointment to travel up and see him for a...

    90yd edge on crosser

    OK,it has been suggested that a 90yd edge on crosser,can be killed 5 out of 10 times,with a 28gauge,half choke and 21gm shell. Hoping to see if we can set it up and try it out at Owls Lodge soon. Personally I think no way! Maybe you'll get a lucky pellet once or twice in fifty!? Maybe! I'm...

    Barrow Heath

    First visit for me here yesterday. Met up with Nicky T and Henry Hopking,and on arrival was greeted by Phil with a very warm welcome, and thanked us for making the journey. A rarity to feel welcomed at a shooting ground these days since the demise of Wylye Valley. A nice touch on each stand...

    Anybody know what this is...?

    A friend of mine was given this. T Murcott made shotguns,pre 1910 so I'm told. Any idea what this would've been used for...

    Owls Lodge 20/3

    Well,I feel this one is worthy of a review. 11 stands today,instead of the usual 10 and looking to put in a twelfth...and a pool shoot! Menu boards on stands now too! Tougher than the usual shoot,big battue and chandelle,rangey crossers,driven,overheads,diving clays,speed and angles,it had it...

    Gil and Vicki Ash Seminar?

    There was loads of hype and controversy surrounding this. Did anybody here go on the actual training day? Or the seminar? Just realised I've not seen any reviews on it.

    Owls Lodge 19/9

    Very enjoyable shoot. 10 stands of 10,but definitely made the very best of it. A good mix of ranges,speeds and different birds. Shot round with Nicola and Calamity from here and certainly weren't short of b.a.n.t.e.r. Finished up on 86....made a mess of 2 relatively straight forward...

    Giving back?

    So,I spent a very enjoyable day out at Wylye Valley today. Had a conversation with Ian (Wylye) that got me thinking. How many other ground owners actually give something back to the sport? How many just pocket everything? I always see gunshops advertised on top shooters backs,or cartridges,or...

    Westfield 14/7?

    Hair Trigger?

    This has happened to me twice now.....once today and once about a month or so ago. Both times it has been while practicing thankfully,so hasn't cost me any targets. I just touch the trigger,getting ready to take the shot and it goes off. If you're wondering,my finger sits on the trigger guard...

    Wylye Valley 12/5

    I'll kick this one off.... Thought it was very good layout today. A few of the targets looked fairly straight forward,but were very deceptive! There was something for everyone and a nice couple of stands to sort the men from the boys. L/R crosser on 2,looked simple....it took 3 of the 4 from...

    Southdown FITASC Training Day.

Started out,cuppa and a bacon buttie,while going over the rules and asking a few questions to our ref/coach for the day,Ben.....Davis? Moved on out to the first layout around 9:45,it was raining,cold and blowing a...

    Podimore 7/4

    Fairly steady shoot,the wind made it difficult in places. It took us around 1hr 45mins to shoot the first 4 stands because of queues and the amount of no birds was absurd! I think it was stand 6 (incoming mini) my first 7 birds out were 'no birds' and then 3 or 4 more during the same...
