Well, shot the stratstone 7 today. WOW!!!!!! When you stand and watch someone shooting it, it doesn't look too serious but when you come to shoot it, christ is it hard! I managed a 17 on my first attempt (and i didn't see one bird until it was gone, only got a quick shot but it was gone), i feel a prat now as on the second go i shot a few birds and dropped some and then started experimenting and shot a 9!!! What i didn't realise is that when scores are tied they use the accumalative total of the two rounds to sort the places so i am now bottom of the 17's and could have done better with a little concentration! We had a great day in great company and we all enjoyed it even though we were very demoralised by the end of it! Had 3 rounds but never improved (shot a 12, 13, 14 and a 15). If you have not shot this yet it is a real eye opener! How the bloody hell George Digweed straighted this is beyond me? I shot the 50 sporting really badly and should have shot 48+ as it's a nice steady round but your thoughts are not with it and your whole focus is on the tower. It was the first time out with my new gun so i guess it's going to take a shoot or two to get used to it. The trouble is that even if 17 does qualify (and i don't think it will) i know deep down there is not a 23 there for me!
