Another at Barbury for the BO yesterday, was with usual chums, 1 pm start, got around even with two hold ups for trap filling in a very respectable 2.5 hours. it was warm without being hot but boy it was windy, had the added bonus seeing the delightful Ms Hoskins and also Mr Wynno who was reffing, what could go wrong, well for I plenty. Am finding ways of getting things badly wrong at present, it started after when I put near 250 through the gun on a jolly day, been quite tardy since and the British wasn't a place to go when whilst shooting so badly. Oh yes there was some tasty stuff, for me it was the awkward simo crossing incomers on st3, a wind affected r-l high midi on st4, the l-r looper on st5, did hit 2 when I thought Id gone far too much in front then only to miss one of the r-l bin lids that were close enough to taste so to speak, awkwardly I saw them as blue only to be told they are green!. The dropping rabbit on st7, never touched it, never touched the same sort of thing when it was at WM a few years back either, st8 a big off tower r-l went unscathed, st9 had some very inconsistent sumo l-r crossers then St11 a very awkward l-r 1/4ering edge on rocket, st 14 had a very nasty orange l-r dropping midi that foxed most in squad and again all mine lived for another day.
Heard a lot on SM video offerings (mostly from superstars) that the shoot had "something for everyone" I took it they meant from C up to AAA, now on my day there I wasn't seeing much for us steerage class shots, that said, in my opinion its not supposed to nor do I / did I expect it to have, its this years biggest ESP championship and it needs to be a tad (or more) stiffer than a the regular registered, wether it was all things to the AAs & AAAs expectations I know not, nor am I knowledgeable enough to be objective in that regard.
In short despite and getting the expected bum smacking, had a good day out with chums what's more was home for a much needed pick me up tea less than 1/2 hour after leaving.
