First time

Yes it’s finally happened, after six very long months I’ve been shooting. A 100 birder at Ferndale shooting ground, nothing fancy just a great bunch of blokes and the fluffy rabbits between everyone was brilliant.well it’s impossible to mention it here but Bernard manning would have been proud.

It all felt a bit odd at first, just like I was starting out for my very first time, rusty doesn’t go far enough,timing and gun hold positions were all over the place, which often led to me over leading and missing in front. Still first one done now it’s onwards to the next.

Fluffy rabbits..... where did that come from

Some of the words such as profanities are auto corrected to another word.  The B word you tried to use is included to stop derogatory comments being excused as that word.  

Great news that shooting is open again un wales. Enjoy. Thankfully, Not long to wait here.

Just hope that the covid spike doesn't cross the channel. No longer in the EU so it shouldn't.

Off to Park Farm next Tuesday to pick up cartridges and have a couple of rounds of UT practice.

The last time I shot was 30th December, I reckon the next few days will pass like the proverbial 'watched kettle'.

I have to admit Phil, I never really settled with UT, no idea why though. OT and ABT fine, but not UT. Having said that, they mucked about with ABT a few times over the years as we know and I still preferred it the way it was 30 odd years ago. ABT was always my favourite discipline by far.

Now this is intriguing to me!! Ive never understood why some people make a distinction between abt ot and ut,i shoot them all and can only see benefits as the steadier abt and ut help me gain confidence on the slightly more dificult OT.Its always a pain to get OT shooters for the countie from abt and ut even though they are pretty similar styles of shooting.
