Pics would be good Dave!;)
Have contacted the photographer. Hopefully have stuff soon enough. Will fire them up in this thread when I get them. Suffice to say, nothing to threaten the groups you stuck up recently.
Well done everyone - Especially Mike, Conor, Aisling, Dave, and Peter from DURC!:D
Delighted to hear all went so well.
Roll on a successful indoor season now. Hopefully bid goodbye to class B after this next match (prone - not 3P. That will not go quite so well)0 -

But definitely count me in for the next trip - once you guys are happy that I wouldn't embarass DURC TOO much!:o
Once a member is at the stage where they're- Safe enough that a range officer won't have to expend undue effort minding them.
- Capable enough that they can shoot a match without causing themselves an injury and without needing assistance.
- At a standard where they won't be disheartened by their score.
then DURC is usually more than happy to bring newbies to a match.
There's always a bit of a concern that someone would be put off by being brought to a competition where they're beaten by a big margin. It's hard to predict too; I never thought I'd feel like that but seeing myself on page 2 of the results at the Isle of Man Easter shoot was surprisingly difficult to take. It certainly dented my pride.
Either way, I'd prefer that DURC brought 10 people at a match with 5 of them propping up the bottom and having fun at their first competition than just having the other 5 who've shot plenty of times. Everybody's gotta start somewhere and that somewhere is usually bottom of the results sheet.

Don't worry about me on that score! Already have come 2nd last in a shooting competition - so anywhere in the bottom 3 would be my usual spot to date!:o
Anywhoooo, I'm old and wizzened and wise:D....the auld pride has been dented by far greater things!:)I'd prefer that DURC brought 10 people at a match with 5 of them propping up the bottom
Happy to prop up the bottom, me!:D Makes you lot look even better!:rolleyes:0 -

Thanks demon
I was well sickened alright. I think those scores are reversed, so the 92 was my 3rd string. I just wasn't comfortable getting down in position, which I ignored to my peril... Got up and sorted it out for the rest though.
And yes, I am very much liking the new jacket, exquisite tailoring and measuring on behalf of all involved :P0 -
