Had a great day of FITASC Sporting at Barrow Heath on Sunday 24th August. It was set up as a County Championship for at least three different counties I think? Anyway, lots of varying and interesting targets, weather was great (unlike this mornings rain which cancelled our golf match), had a...

If not the first, then let me be at least one of the first to congratulate Matt Rutherford on this forum, for a hugely successful inaugural ShootClay Cup. Both Pam and I had a really great day. Shot like a plank personally but hey, who cares. We thoroughly enjoyed the targets, had a great...

A really good registered ESP at Hepworth Hall this weekend. Another great score for me which, two weeks ago, would have been a PB for me but still really, really pleased to shoot an 85, although it was one target shy of another B Class win, pipped on a 86. Still picked up a bit of dosh, so a...

Just received my copy of the much discussed calendar. Very nice. Very tasteful. A good cause. Well done ladies.   :nyam:

Went to Barrow Heath on Sunday 3rd August for the registered ESP. Soooooo excited. Just seen confirmation that my new PB score of 91 (previously 83) deffo won B Class !!! There was a fantastic turn out for the shoot, held in bright sunshine with a nice breeze. We booked on as shooter numbers...

A weekend of going back to Skeet for our annual trek up to Scotland. Had a good time, and me and the trusty CG banged in a 99 at the Morton Skeet Classic held at Morton Clays near Edinburgh on Saturday, which was enough to win A Class outright, and then on Sunday further up the road to...

Some excellent targets greeted the 199 shooters at Barrow Heath today, Really enjoyable day, set up for the Suffolk County Championship, with mixed weather conditions. Personally I shot like a plonker, ending with a 72, and there were two targets that I didn't even hit at all !!! After...

Anybody else on here going to be shooting this on Sunday 29th June? Would be nice to know who is so we can try to meet everybody and say hello !   :thumbsu:

Have had to say our sad goodbyes to our beautiful boy and best friend Charlie. At 17 years of age, many of you will have seen him at shoots plodding around, or sitting in the back of the Jeep. Don't they just break your heart ?

Another FSP at The Highwaymans today in hot sunshine. Found it a bit testy to be honest with a few too many edge on targets and eye tests, and that will be generally borne out when the scores are released. However, I have to say I hit a FSP personal best today with a 70, so still happy. ...

So, here we are in Czech Republic ready to shoot the Sellier & Bellot Grand Prix Practical Pistol Match. Arrived at the range near Tabor this afternoon and collected my SIG.45 Auto, and after finding a spare range, managed to fire 200 practice rounds of Sellier & Bellot FMJ .45 ACP down...

Second visit today to this very nice ground for their 100 reg ESP. Nice variation of targets and just wish I hit more of them. Ended on a 74 but still felt I left too many out there even for me. Also met up with Shaun from this forum and had a nice chat. Real nice guy. A very enjoyable day...

As far as I am aware this is either a totally new, or at least very recently resurrected shooting ground near Risby, Suffolk, and in fact only a few miles from Barrow Heath. It is a very large piece of land, mostly flat in topography, but with enough trees and shrubbery plus man made equipment...

On Sunday we went to shoot a registered FITASC Sporting comp at what I believe to be a fairly new, or at least newly resurrected ground in Suffolk, called Highwaymans. Situated in Risby, Suffolk, and in fact not too far from Barrow Heath. We had a 9.00am start and proceeded to enjoy a very nice...

Went to the Essex CPSA AGM on Wednesday and, I'm sure not to anybody's real surprise, the turnout was dismal. But I mean really dismal even compared to other years. With a free bar and food, I am still amazed that people can't make the effort for one night of the year to at least support their...

In the last 24 hours I have heard of two clubs closing. I hasten to add, as per the title, this is only hearsay and rumour, but hopefully there are others on the forum that may be able to offer more info ? Firstly, I have been told that A1 Club in Barnet is due to close down completely, with...

Got sent this today. Nothing more to say . . . . . can't disagree with this one ! http://www.youtube.com/embed/9WoM2bHfr48

Hi all - just thought it made sense to let all you skeeter people know that I have a couple of ads in ShootBay which I have placed on behalf of my nephew. If Krieghoffs rock your boat but you never thought you could afford one, it might be worth you taking a look, especially if you are into...

Very saddened to hear that John Button passed away today. 25 or so years ago I have many memories of John's devotion to promoting Jenson at the start of his racing career, as a young Cadet Karter around  the regular race meets at Tilbury, Rye House, and Buckmore Park. We have followed Jenson's...

Thought I would start this off. First Sunday of 2014 and, according to weather forecasts, we are due a dry period between approx 7pm tonight and 2pm tomorrow afternoon, so we're off to Barrow Heath for 10.30am Sunday morning for our first 100 ESP Sporting of the year. Got to be better than my...
