Widdington today. All flowed well, some long targets. Shot 87, nowhere near HG I imagine, which is ok, I'd had a layoff.
Sporting shoots. Where - and how did it go?

Westfield, had a bit of wind / drizzle / sun, shot round with bro who started like a train then fell well and truly off the rails, one had a most enjoyable shoot, despite dropping some incomers (again ?) finished on 78 bro 62 and told his Mrs to hide all electrical appliances, two on 92 when I left, not busy, would add that it's been the only time I've shot the ground where I've not heard grumbles of sorts, no doubt some superstar will bang in nearer the 100 however as before out of first 50/60 scores only two in the 90's and all shooters seemed quite taken with the course.

I wish I could say the same. First time shooting there and had a nightmare. Had a lesson yesterday so was trying gun down but was not doing me any favours. Even managed to blank stand 4. Went back to gun up and dropped 10 over the last 5 but the damage was done. John Heagren was following me and seemed to be hitting a lot - looks like he got a 97. The one positive is my score of 66 will get dropped.

Chip Smith. Lesson went well. Just gotta make that decision whether I go through the pain barrier and scores going backwards to ultimately get better. Mr Heagren said stick with it as will pay dividends.

Well they are both better shots than me. In fact they are so good they have overcome the disadvantage of shooting gun-down. ?
But seriously, when I shoot FITASC I consciously have to change hold points and timings on some targets. It's different and I still feel a definite disadvantage on some shots.

Err.. dunno I counted 13 misses.. I think I shot 4 pairs there though.. Shot 5 pairs on the horrible big sim pair that the wind played havoc with. Can't recall another 5 pair at the moment.. aargh I did say to my mate on way home that it's the first time I hadn't looked at my card at the end. He handed them in.

Just checked my card and only 5 pair stand was 2 soba total of 98. How hard is it to count to 100.

Shot the Jack Pyke Open at Sporting Targets yesterday, much more enjoyable than the Premier League shoot.
Finished on 111 which was enough to finish 13th, nice little goody-bag for every shooter as well.

I shot it today and after shooting in the fifty's and sixty's for the past few months I was more than happy with 111 and joint 2nd in A
Enjoyed my weekend shooting. If scores are up to date, I came 4th in Ladies at Jack Pyke which as Dan said was better than the Premier League shoot they held and bonus got all my driven. Then after such a long day on Saturday got up early to get to Southdown for Sportrap and felt like a bag of poo, not enough sleep which for me means mega headache. Took pills and soldiered on to enjoy testing Sportrap and Sporting, at a massive breakfast in between those two and came away with South of England Sporting Lady and South East of England Sportrap Lady.

Shot the Jack Pyke on Thursday and put a 105 in B class to come joint third with two lads on 106 in first and second. Only did a 105 by doing 8 straight on the driven on stand 15 which wasn't in the script.

With respect to everybody who shot it, did ANYBODY shoot less than 100?

Looks like Widdington either added my score up wrong or just decided I missed the pair I didnt get to shoot as taken 2 off my score. Will message them now but seems everyone has been scored out of 100.
