Have any of you heard the story of Shropshire Trap shooter (legend?) Brian Bradley and Bisley?
About forty years ago Brian and a few Shropshire Trappists decide to go down to Bisley, in Brian's new posh Jaguar, well Brian doesn't like to speed so at 60mph it took a while, finally arriving at 1.25p.m.
The gentleman booking in exclaimed "you've left it a bit late but we can fit you in just "
" What scores are in please ?" asks Brian "100-299" says the man " Oh you've left the door open then " says Brian.
Brian shot 100-300
Then there was the time at Sealand where he was absolutely on his game and Bob Braithwaite was there and being celebrated for his Olympic victory and tied with Bradley. But there was no shoot off because it was put back and delayed for no apparent reason until the daylight failed.
Still active at Bridgnorth Gun Club, always got a smile on his face and always willing to offer advice. But don't have lift off him unless you have flask & sandwiches.
