I took about 120 pics and have edited it out to 70 which I am going to give to the club on a CD for their use on posters etc.,

That really fills out the Google image, Duncan, hopefully when Google updates (2015? :) ) I'll be able to identify the features. Great post.

Duncan,

When you come to Tucson to try out for the Olympics, you can stay at my house, it's only 14 miles away. :mrgreen:

One of my high school friend's little brother was very good at this, back in the '80 he was World Champion several times and Olympic gold medal winner.
I just remember him as being a typical little brother pest. :mrgreen:

Just did my first stint at setting up and running a 40 bird sporting shoot ,It looked easy when someone else sets it up but its not and it can be stressfull , especially when traps breakdown in the middle of a round and also trying to get the balance right between easy for novices and hard for experts :( . I hope that I got it right as there was not any complaints from any of the 30 plus entrants,well not to me anyway . Unfortunately there is no pics as was too busy to use camera trying to sort out the problem with the trap [turned out to be a crack in the arm ]and had to resort to an old manual trap to finish off :cry: . The weather was dry to start but turned to a light rain just as we got the bbq going we als had a small air rifle and pistol set up in doors for the members young children which kept them busy while their parents went round the course.
