With the exception of the Fly shoot, this is THE comp of the year for anyone with an interest in accuracy.

 

Always a pleasure to participate.

 

See you there!

The Egg Shoot is over for another year.  Beautiful weather but a very strong north-easterly wind made breaking an egg with one shot at 500 yards especially challenging.  No sighters remember.........

Only one shooter managed it - a Diggle junior member - young Sean Walmersley took away £100 for a fantastic shot with his factory Ruger PRS.  Sean is the son of 'Geek' on this forum.  Sean also had an impressive one-inch group in the 300 yard stage.  Sean is in the centre of the pic below.

Thanks to all who turned out and to Jim and Mary Marsden (forun members) for organising the comp.

What a great day, shame only 26 shooters. Thank you to all those that organised, marked targets and worked in the butts.

It doesn't matter (much), that I was well and truly outshot by my 14 year old son.

For those that did not attend, you missed a fantastic day and the weather was good (even for Diggle).

Hopefully see you at the Fly Shoot?

Well done Sean !

Certainly a very enjoyable if not hot day, good to see many people off the site attending the shoot.

 

looking forwards to attending The Fly
