Re: The Phoenix
Dammit! Missed out on a bronze by four points in the F Class TR 400, 500 & 600 shoot. Still, 18th out of 33 isn't too bad and I'll settle for 10th out of 18 in the F Class long range as well. At least it's an improvement on last year.
Re: The Phoenix
And no reason why it shouldn't be better again next year...not a bad result, and well done for taking part

My standard and expectations aren't as high as yours, so I managed to hold back the tears and just sigh a little emrolleyes razzmr smith wrote:Read them and weap.....
My GRCF wasn't as good as last year, and decidedly mediocre - But my GRSB (second go now) is getting better...I was pleased with my T&P1 (a PB but still B-class)...
...and...I won class D in the 1500 again! :shakeshout: ...this time there's 3 other people in the class, so I may even get a medal! :lol:

Haha it would seem this time my expections are higher than my standard.
I think you are up for a medal this time,fairly sure i saw you in second place somewhere else too. clapclap
Re: The Phoenix
Thanks Mate :cheers:
I'm sure I can improve quite a bit yet - I've only been shooting Gallery rifle 4 years (3 Phoenixes), and am really enjoying the shooting and the meetings...
...despite the scores this year I'm already eager for the next one...

Re: The Phoenix
Competitions are great fun but infuriating at the same time. So much expectation. I really was confident of shooting a 300 I the TP1 CF as I've shot a string of 299s leading up to this, but shot a 297. Then, Phoenix A which I've shot 3 times and couldn't really care less about, placed well. Weird.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!
