The dates have not changed for you customers,so stop panicking! I was talking to Steve about the date of all the other shoots which messed up our original timings.

( I have had 4 calls today)

Steve is the other person short with curly hair?

 
Booked in for the Feb and March shoots. Can't wait as absolutely love the grounds at WLSS, must practise gun down, so if anyone sees me premounting give me a slap!

 
Nice to hear a girl say that!

Pity more of them didn't just do this and get on with life rather than expect the rest of the world to fight their battles for them.

Sorry for the thread drift but I am so p***** off with all this c*** on the go at the moment.

If a man oversteps the line of common decency then they should expect and get a jolly good slap whoever the hell they are!

It would save a lot of time and trouble!

 
His hair is only curly when it's raining chubby , are you going to join us ???

We had to change to start at 9 am now as we fly to Dubai that evening !!

Well done Calamity - been trying to encourage you to shoot from your holster for a while now.

 
Simon, I knew you'd like that - gonna try your Todd Bender style! and you know how I like to be slapped!

 
Looks like it's going to be a sunny day tomorrow and looking forward to my second go at FITASC. Hopefully no gun warnings and with any luck the refs will forget to bring those yellow and red cards!

 
Have no idea of my start time or squad for tomorrow.... Should be fun.

Yes very encouraging weather forecast, I am on at 9.45.

Should be a good gathering.

 
Well, that was a long day. Left home at 7.50am (the surrounding traffic to WLSS in rush hour is fugly) and got home 5.50pm, with no hanging about to socialise afterwards..

Superb day for the time of year, although bright winter sunlight is actually not ideal for spotting certain clays at times. Very nice for standing around in though.

WLSS did another good job broadly, although for me, my day went gradually downhill. Started on the Hull layout, which was pretty easy going. Mainly long graceful targets, which sometimes ended up near to you if you let them come in. I missed the very first target (unforgivably) and hit the next 24.

Next up was the CCI layout, which again wasn't too tough but was a bit technical in places. I missed a single in each hoop for a 22.

Thirdly we shot Musto, which was a tougher layout, especially from the second hoop, especially as the sun made a big looper really tough to see around lunchtime. A bit sloppy for 19 here.

Then, a long wait until West London Gunroom layout. Scheduled for us at 3.45, it wasn't ready until 4.10; so a two hour wait. I was getting cold and fidgety by this time as the light started to fade a bit. Ben Davies on my squad hit a stunning 23 on this toughest layout. I made it look harder than it was with a fading 16, nearly doubling my losses from the first three Parcours. So the day ended on a bit of a low for me after a very enjoyable first three layouts.

Maybe I would have adjusted the course to toughen the Hull layout up a touch and slightly backed off WLGR one? I know I sound like a moaner, I am not, but I always think 'how do we improve this'? (A business related mindset I suppose).

I need to suss out timings if I do it again (I think some squads were finished two hours before we were). 8 hours at a ground to shoot 100 targets is not a mind set I am used to.

another good shoot yesterday, it was a long day and like Will didnt have time to socialize afterwards. Very good targets with some nifty footwork needed at some points. shooting in bright sunshine and reasonably warm weather made a welcome change.

struggled on most of the tower targets, especially when trying to work out distance and line. Three stupid misses on CCI layout when I just lost the plot, prevented what could of been a comfortable 24, and being docked a target for barrel selector being stuck in the middle and not being able to fire then proceeding to miss the next easy bird meant a 20 became an 18. Considering some changes to gun and really poor form recently I did show some signs of improvement, especially with a 9 on the pool shoot with a Kreighoff!

great squad , plenty of laughs, looking forward to the next one.
