Congratulations to Mike Waits on being the first to shoot a 60.10 on our HEXTA Electronic Targets.

A nice finish to a four range aggregate of 240.26

Fantastic Mike! And in the same manner as your incredible performance at the Queens, this 60.10 wasn't machine gunned either! 7 minutes. Congrats, great effort.

Well done Mike, and conditions were not perfect either with a brisk breeze blowing down the range.

No not all. Not having a dig at anyone. I'm all for machine gunning when you can, that's the game and you have be able to use that strategy when you can. Just pointing out that it's not as common to see the really high x count shoots over a longer period of time. I don't think I've seen a 60.10 shot in more than 3 minutes.

Thanks all for the nice comments. Lang Lang is a nice range to shoot at, and with the Hexta's now in play it certainly lifts the enjoyment factor for shooter and spectator alike. As we have seen over the past few years, the conditions have changed somewhat. We are seeing more rear wind fish tails, making it a tricky range now.

Looking forward to the Lang Lang OPM on 8th October.

I'd like to offer a little advice for our "TOP GUN - Maverick" Mr. Paroz. The man with a need for speed :D SLOW DOWN AND SAVOUR THE MOMENT :P

There are some that scull a beer, and those that savour a nice scotch. I think this is the difference between you and me, and why previous attempts to ply both you and Davies with booze has failed. That's why I steer clear of the bar, I don't think I'd survive :wink:
