Which is why I had to sell it....!!!!

An old back injury and a slipped disc has left my lower back vulnerable and adopting the 'supine' position quickly became too painful to bear....so, sadly, it had to go...but it was fun for while.....especially as I really enjoy the 'old school' type of shooting at Bisley.
I did wonder if there was enough of us to start a "Supine" club at Bisley; but I guess with age and injury (my new knee, spinal operation etc) there are very few of us now doing it now.

Shooting in the supine position was once described to me as, "We few, we happy few,........." ;)
