Getting sunburnt wasn't an issue this year, and when you have ginger hair and pasty skin...any day out without getting toasted by the sun is a good day! I had a fun crew to shoot with and enjoyed their company, plus got to witness some impressive shooting! My own shooting was less than impressive, but we all have our good and bad days, that's just life. I tried a few new things and they didn't quite pay off, but that's the price of education

I would encourage anyone to come to these days, even non competitors, as the knowledge from the more experienced guys was freely shared and you only stand to learn from such people. But shooting is even more fun if you can.

Once again, many thanks to all involved.

Absolutely, as a first timer, I'd recommend this shoot as not too demanding or intimidating.

My big fcuk up was not checking my EL binos, they were set on yards, (and I forgot how to change them )so guesstimating TBR using my yards displayed and Simons ranges in meters did my head in......PPPP,..... preparation prevents piss poor performance.

Huge thankyou to the organizers and hosts from me.

Enjoyed your company too Kim, Cheers,

Bevan
