I still haven't seen anyone actually put their finger on what it was they didn't enjoy?! A few complained there were not enough long range birds, possibly, or that there wasn't enough variety; I can't personally think of a single stand that was the same as any other. The organisation was pretty faultless on the day I shot and the winning / overall scores seemed to suggest it was plenty hard enough. Shockingly the Ladies category was won by what I consider a low score given what we have come to expect form this outstanding shooter.
So just asking those who shot it, what didn't you like specifically?

What a wonderfully simple view of the world.............. :huh:They just bitch because they got a crap score, always the same. If they score well, it's the best shoot ever. If they cock it up, it's a rubbish shoot. You get bored reading it. We went on the Friday, nothing wrong with the organisation at all.
missed this one ? so can't comment .but tend to feel a little let down at bigger shoots these days, but if you have ever put on a shoot you will soon realise 70% of shooters have different ideas on what is good and bad .......no win situation to set a layout to suit all 4 classes over a 100 birds is tough enough let alone 200 would like targets to return to resembling something real , but don't hold your breath....What a wonderfully simple view of the world.............. :huh:
Scuta,
Totally agree with u on that one, I have shot the Essex for last few years and this one wasnt my cup of tea ., all this slow dropping stuff has got its place but not on most stands, personaly the last stand on the red course was the only stand needing a gap, this shoot straight at stuff is not what shotguns are designed for, after travelling for 4hrs u expect to be entertained not demoralised with missing birds crashing to the ground at 10yrds or floppy birds where the 32" gun has no place . ???????? Roll on Westfields
