Hello Dave hope you are well? I'm home for the first two so shall get a few of us south cumbrians up with our bang sticks to have a play
Cheers Daz
 
Now then Daz, sounds like a plan to me chap.

The old crystal testical has no idea what the weather will bring, but, fun should still be had.

All the Pest.

We are considering presenting a prize for the Pool Shoot at the final event of the year, based on accumulated points over the three shoots. This may descend into a Pillow Fight for bragging rights.....

The Free Prize Raffle for a bottle of Whisky, was won by M Bell (kindly donated by R Gillespie)

I would like to thank the Ratwife and Bear for their assistance in running the event, and all those who very kindly donated prizes.

The next shoot is on Sunday the 19th of June.

Regards.

We were delighted when Hubert wandered into view, and once more stirred everyone up.

Please note:

The shoot on the 19th June has had to be cancelled, due to the need to hold a County Championships for the CPSA on that date.

A replacement date should be announced shortly.

Hello having only zeroed rifles,what does the shoot consist. of ie.type of target and distance .many thanks Chris
 
Mornin' Chris.

The shoot is formatted on the DSC 1 profile, with 3shots at 100mtr sitting in simulated low seat, 3 shots at 75mtr sitting or kneeling on the floor with the aid of sticks and 3 final shots at 45mtr standing with the aid of sticks all at a Roe Buck target. There are also 3 shot taken from the simulated low seat at a Zero target.
All shots to count, and in the event of a tie, the best (group/nearest the bull) score on the zero target takes the day. (£5 for the comp' which is a single chance event. and £3.50 thereafter for practice/fun)
We also have a two shot pool shoot at 125mtr £1.00(always keenly contested) and a zero (three shots) card available £1.00
We start at 10.00hrs at the Penrith Shooting Ground (Bowscar) and end at about 15.30/16.00hrs

Regards.

Ratty.
