Shot it today first squad out, follwed Hammid, so guess that is you Hamster ? I nearly asked if it was you as the name was pretty obvious. Mark here (mate of the other Mark).

Well it was a bit cool and misty first thing but we never saw any rain and it got out with a few sunny spells. Shot the red course first, and I managed an 86 which is the best I've shot for a while. Not such a great 79 on the black course to give a total of 165 which I'm fairly pleased with given recent form. Overall a great shoot, some tricky ones and nothing at extreme distances, nice freindly squad and a great day out.

Good luck to those still to shoot.

I've never seen a competition before, is it possible to turn up just to watch the action?

 

[ExSCA]

I think you could easily turn up and walk the course to watch...

Nice shooting with you Simster , you did great on the Red course.

The Essex Masters gets a bit better every year, really good target set up, great variety, great distances, effortless organisation and lovely Land Rover lifts too. The odd thing is that the vast majority of the stands look for all the world the same as what we see week in week out at regular shoots, in other words totally straightable, yet somehow we keep letting ones and twos slip. I honestly think it's the sense of occasion that gets to most of us?!

I did 82 Red, 83 Black, really got punished on two stands that I will state as more trick shooting and unnecessarily hard. The course in the main as I mentioned already was tough but fair, every stand was either straighted or very nearly so by someone in our squad showing their hittability. Not so for the pair of flat, fast and distant Teal which proved to yield an average of 4 x 10 , not my idea of savvy target presentation, nor was the simmo going aways on the Black course, again fast, flat, edge on and distant. These need a lot of dedicated practice with specialist heavy guns to get anywhere near straight regularly, and so again I don't personally like them, nothing but lazy card wreckers. But still, that left 22 class stands to get your teeth into. :smile:

I shot 84 on both courses. I really let myself down on a few targets as I didn't think there were many overly hard stands, I just kept dropping ones and twos due to wandering concentration. Such is life.

 

[Chard]

I got 83 on Black course yesterday, but only managed 77 on the Red, because I was cream crackered

160 total, which will get me **** all in A Class :.:

Great shoot though
