Stalking Directory / H4H Shoot 2012.

The proposed date of this year's shoot is the weekend of the 23rd or 24th June. The location will be the same as the last two years which is the tunnel range at Monmouth and the format will remain pretty much the same although different targets may be used this year. If you are seriously interested in attending please let me know if the dates clash with anything else of significant importance and suggest alternative dates. Also let me know if you have any suggestions for improving the shoot in any way and we will see what we can do.
 
Yep agree with Roedinator. Great event I'll be there. Be sure to call or pm if you need anything. Lot of work for one guy.
 
I fancy a trip up there this year and I'm free for that weekend (just checked with the house commandant). Anyone else from the Somerset/Devon border area want to share a lift let me know.
 
The ball has started rolling once again and I will post details of the shoot in the next couple of days and look forward to meeting up with you old friends in June, with perhaps a few new friends this year also. Roedinator has yet once more plunged straight in with a very generous offer of a day roe stalking as a prize with the winner being able to take the carcass home with them. The stalking in Somerset to be taken at a date convenient to both. Roedinator has been extremely generous to this event over the last two years and it is very much apreciated as has the other donations made by site members that have made this event a success. I just ask that you don't applaud him when he does his moderator projectile trick this year, and I promise that it was pure coincidence that he should win a moderator in the prize draw. The feedback that I have received so far indicates that the site members want to keep things pretty much as in the last two years. If anyone new to the site wants further information and can't wait until I post the details in the next few days can I suggest that they might like to look back at the information posted for the two previous shoots. Now lets get praying that the weather will be fine towards the end of June as although an indoor event it will make the week-end more enjoyable.
 
Well guys we have got off to a very good start allready with Roedinator yet again donating a day roe stalking in Somerset as a prize. The stalking to be taken at a date mutually agreeable with the winner and also the winner gets to take the carcass home with them. As in previous years this will be a prize in the draw to be held at the shoot. Any site member wishing to buy tickets for the draw will be able to buy them from me and we will hold them on their behalf, details to follow shortly. Got to rush now, I'm going to see a man about a dog (GWP).
