Winners ETL80
ETL 80

A few of us had been looking forward to this shoot knowing that the format of 40 targets in the morning stop for lunch and then shoot another 40 in the afternoon would make for a long day. Anyway four Midshires shooters attended myself, Helen, Andrew P and Simon, we where joined by a few of our fellow Fenland shooters. The day was forecast to be very warm with little wind. We arrived with plenty of time for a chin wag and a plink Helen disappearing to the plinking range ahead of me and Andrew and as usual we both spent to long chatting and nearly ran out of time for some zero checking.
With the whistle being blown for the briefing and us still in the car park filling rifles and preparing ourselves the score cards where handed out to our shooting partners, Helen being paired with Peter Edwards son of my partner for the day Peter Edwards know to us as granddad, Andrews partner was Dan Ely one of the UK’s top shooters so a chance for Andrew to learn from a master, i can't remember who Simons partner was.

There was two 40 shot courses and both me and Andrew started on the yellow course and Helen and Simon on the blue course. I started on lane 11 and well bagged the first two targets then on to next lane a long one and a closer one the long one i assume i under ranged and got the wind wrong as it landed low and right the shorter one fell so 3 out of 4 so far. Andrew started on the lane ahead of me and showed Dan how to knock them over getting the first two and then knocking his rifle which actually had the effect of knocking it back to his original settings. Anyway it wasn’t long before Dan was knocking over the ones Andrew was missing, so we finished the morning session as follows me 34, my partner 28, Andrew 32, Dan 39, Helen 33 her partner 32, Simon on 36. Off to the car we go for some lunch and a review of our performance, so far it appeared that the yellow course was proving to be the tougher of the two with many of the good shots having had problems some of it associated with the heat because most of the course was out in the open in full sun. Lunch time finished and after a few minutes chatting to our fellow Fenlands shooters we started the other course. Helen and Simon in the wooded area benefiting from some shade for a good proportion of the course, myself and Andrew out in the sun we both started badly in a hit one miss one fashion

Andrew then cleared the knelling lane while sitting on his bean bag so had to take two Fat zeros for that lane. Fortunately my positional shooting did not let me down missing only one of my positional shots all day. Then we get out into the bowl in full sun with a nice cooling breeze every now and then. I managed to finish the yellow course 7 down for a 33, Andrew 30, Helen 31 and Simon finishing with a fantastic 36. So after adding our scores together me finishing third with 67, Helen 64 and Simon 69 in A grade, Andrew finished second on 62 in B grade. Simons score got him into a shoot off for 1st and 2nd place losing out to Simon High on a standing shot.
