BRING IT ON!!!
I'd say most of ye lads beat me already. You've more experience at this kind of shooting. It's amazing how bad someone can be, or more to the point how much you can rely on rests. I was genuinely struggling. It really opened my eyes to how difficult free handed shooting can be and how much practice i need.
Still i'll shoot this, and then spend some time over the holidays to prepare for next year. Really looking forward to it. It's a style of shooting i haven't done and the craic is better than i've had in other disciplines in a long time.Forum Charter - Useful Information - Photo thread: Hardware - Ranges by County - Hunting Laws/Important threads - Upcoming Events - RFDs by County

So today marked the last Bullseye comp (calendar one anyway) of the year.
It was a great day as you'd expect. Good turnout and standard is getting higher. Winner of the rimfire rifle section was only 8 points off maximum, nice one Chris, and the C/F lads were not too shabby themselves. Even managed to bag myself a top three finish (3rd), but i think they felt sorry for me and told i was third instead of saying i came last, but there was only three of us shooting C/F
Unfortunately i never got to shoot pistol today as my Father had a slight issue during his shoot and i had to try and resolve the problem. Turns out it was just a slight problem he is having with aligning the sights of the gun. Bless him, but he refuses to wear his glasses (looking glasses) when shooting and he needs them.
Still he enjoyed the day, as i did. To the lads i never got to speak to, if i don't see you before the Christmas break i wanna take the time to wish you a very early happy Christmas.
On another point i was talking to some of the guys today and explained to them my hopes of merging the rimfire & centrefire sporting rifle comps i was holding into the same schedule and platform as the Bullseye. This means any future shoots will give multiple variations of disciplines/sports in a single comp. I'm thrashing out the specifics of the shots with Christy & Paul over the coming week, but you'll be looking at:- Rimfire pistol
- Centrefire Pistol
- Rimfire rifle (short)
- Rimfire Rifle (long)
- Centrefire Rifle (short)
- Centrefire Rifle (long)
- Rimfire Sporting (long & short)
- Centrefire Rifle (long & short)
This will not affect the Bullseye shoots and all comps will be run as the one event. Not two separate ones on the same day. Medals will be available for all shoots. As this is still in the early stages of planning it may be a shoot or two until it is fully up and running, but keep an eye out here for competition notifications and i'll let you know when the new shoots will take place.
Another new development is, due to the work commitments of all the lads running the comps all shoots will most likely now be held on Sundays. The new calendar is already being worked on with the first shoot for 2016 being as early as possible in January.
The lads did make a point today to try and get one last, unscheduled, shoot in before Christmas, but this depends on range availability, among other factors. As soon as i know if one can be arranged i'll post here so stay tuned.
Lastly, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, Christy and Paul wanted me to wish everyone that attended over the year their thanks for attending and supporting the sport and their hope to see you all as well as new faces in 2016.Forum Charter - Useful Information - Photo thread: Hardware - Ranges by County - Hunting Laws/Important threads - Upcoming Events - RFDs by County
