ARRSE shooting Club

[EX_STAB]

Clearly PERSEC would be a major issue but lots of us on here shoot (Civvy style) How could it be made to work?


Edit. Now it's established I've removed the question mark from the title.

 

[Gremlin]

Wait out - I might have an idea about that. Will enquire and reply in a couple of days!

 

[semper]

I may be interested in that, will need to be a fairly central enough location for as much as possible to join in

 

[seanbean]

Is this thread for gays only or can anyone join? (Arse..shooting..)

Gays..........theres no gays in my village.

How central do you need to be. Live around South Oxfordshire and work/shoot on about five different shoots locally.........

Oh and count me in.

 

[EX_STAB]

I think it would probably have to work on an informal basis of invitations to existing shoots. Even just a pi55 up at the Imperial or Trafalgar perhaps? Then there's the driven shoots etc.

Hmm....

 

[Mighty_doh_nut]

Postal events might work?

Or i could save you all the effort, just send the trophies directly to me

 

[EX_STAB]

Aha!

A meet up at the Spring Action shoot at Bisley?

[Cuddles]

If ten or so could get together we could buy a day - somewhere like Hampshire - for next season. Either driven pheasant or maybe some semi-walked up?

 

[amazing__lobster]

Hold a virtual shoot on Second Life!

What about an Arrse aggregate at the Imperial Historical?

What about an Arrse aggregate at the Imperial Historical?

Or a Sweepstake event? Snaps on Short Siberia?

That might work but I have a sneaking suspicion that the "young gentlemen" that do TR might not like the disciplines the "cowboys" that do SR do and vise versa. (Henry does both.........badly!)
A curry in the Moghul in Brookwood after the event might actually be the better solution.

I like your thinking, I'll have a word with my boss in the morning and see if he will lay on a day walk and stand and at what price?
I'll do the beating and picking up.
As for a match, there is nothing to stop you forming a club or association. I was a club sec for a few years and we eventually went approved.
It all can be done and attendance once a year can count as regular. Volunteers to score targets from postals and we have a club!

 

[Mighty_doh_nut]

Are there enough members with an interest to get a few disciplines together and perhaps create one of our own?

 

[ugly]

Practical mortars perhaps, Long range IEDs, Home grown batsim, Sustained indirect fire, I'm sure we could think of some! I do like playing skittles with 12 bore slugs!

 

[Vasco]

My club is having great difficulty finding ranges for full bore target shooting, as is LERA, I believe. So that kind of shooting might be difficult to organise.

 

[Dilfor]

I'm up for missing pheasants on anybody else's land. I'll even bring a dog to peg them/flush them too early too.

I suppose without Bisley there are only so many ranges available. I shot with 4 clubs in one year to keep my eye in and a lot of bookings were last minute cancellations. HBSA has a midweek target on Short Siberia so it can be done.

 

[HH_2]

How about all the shooters post which discipline is their main focus so we get an idea of who does what........

Mines mainly Smallbore TR and Fullbore TR whenever I get the time and opportunity (never enough unfortunately).
