Clay shoot coming up.

pullandbang

The boards.ie day out seems to have fallen by the wayside.

If anyone is interested, our local club is having a clayshoot on Sunday 24th August in Lakelands Shooting Grounds, Dalystown, Mullingar.

One of the events is a 5 man team shoot for an annual cup. It's shot over 30 targets DTL & Sporting. We usually have around 15 teams competing, mostly game clubs from Meath/Westmeath.

Maybe you could get a boards.ie team to enter?

Even if you don't enter a team, there is an open shoot with a high gun prize of €300 - not to be sneezed at!

Details and entry form are on the Dunderry Gun Club website - www.dunderrygunclub.bravehost.com

On the same topic - would any of the Dublin based boardsies be up for a days shooting in Courtlough?

It wasn't me!

Got a match on the 24th, so can't make that, but a day in Cortlough would be a good laugh.

I would be on for both the competition and on a boards day in courtlough.

I have not posted here before but am a keen marksman. I do have one problem regarding the competition (Two if you include transport). The gun is not licensed to me. It is licensed to my father. I am waiting for the license application to be approved so I can transfer the gun from him to me. Would there be a problem with me entering the competition with a gun that is not licensed to me specifically?

As for the day in courtlough, I am definitely on for it. Let me know when and I am there.

No problem!
We've a slight change in our usual format this year and I think I still have the old entry form on the web. We'll take entries on the day.
We'll run the open shoot from 9.30am and run the team shoot alongside with the last teams done by 3.00pm. This will give lads a chance to come early, shoot a few lines in the open shoot as practice, and then shoot the team. It's over the same traps, so when a team shows up to shoot, say the DTL, then we'll just stop the open DTL competition for a few minutes, put the 5 man team through, and then resume the open!

We look forward to seeing a boards.ie team! Put a few faces to the names.:cool:
