It will do your Sporting the power of good. Enjoy your day. Post your results and a review of the shoot. :biggrin:
Shot this today (Reg 100 ESK) and survived.
On the whole I enjoyed the experience, and respect to the men / women that shoot this to a high standard. I was in a squad with 3 internationals and witnessed some great shooting today.
Not having a scooby what the format was, i just went with the flow. Very different world to sporting. Interesting to see the various styles of the shooters, and the little quirks / ticks that made up their pre-shot routine. I notice the stance of most was not relaxed, leaning hard into the shot, head clamped on the stock, body twisted, feet looking awkward, very robotic. I had my usual stance, a-la waiting for a bus, and probably looked a bit camp in comparison. That said what they were doing clearly worked, they were not missing much.
What did strike me was the noise. The silence was deafening (no talking) this was the most odd part of my experience and probably the bit i struggled with the most. It was a major difference to sporting (the bit in between shooting) and i just didn't have a plan to deal with that aspect of the shooting (in silence)
Scored 18 + 22 + 19 + 21 to finish 80/100 on my first outing. Enjoyed it and will do another next month.
