Change of Handle
The new F class TR European champion is Tim, who calls himself Eagernoskill. I have suggested to him this afternoon that he now calls himself 'Eagersomeskill(proven)'
Tim has triumphed over tricky Stickledown winds and low temperatures and sustained a level pf shooting skill which is now the envy of Europe.
Well done Tim, a magnificent achievement. Living proof that nice guys do win.

Re: Change of Handle
...I just had a phone call re this
It was not just the Stickledown wind he conquered, it was also some rather tricky weighing scales from what I have heard, the scales did not match anything else he had weighed his rifle on. So he had to use different equipment to what was planned.
Well done you

Re: Change of Handle
The man done well, I left an incredibly happy Saffy at a cold Bisley tonight and just spoke to him a few minutes ago by 'phone. Unfortunately he can read but not post to the forum on his mobile so he has asked me to thank everyone for their support over the last 12 months and congratulations in this thread and he will post a range report when he is back on line.
