Well I was joking about the zed ring, i did not think it would touch a nerve !!
You are right there is no need yet and lets not distract from the great shooting we have seen lately ...

As you noted Graham - conditions must have been extremely benign!
Obviously a range for proving very accurate gear!

It was a joke about 10 rings too!
Nothing wrong with a little humour eh?

Hey sorry ! I have a big mouth or fingers in my case ! I need to keep my mouth shut at the respect of our shooting fraternity! You know I luvs ya all and the people in this sport is why I compete! .
I think looking at those scores last night made me frustrated as we just don't get conditions like that here to try out our gear and technique ! Bundy was the easiest I shot all year and it was still tricky!
So I'm very sorry for my rant ! Very unsportsmanlike like!
Have good day and see ya at the Nats!
Regards Graham.

Keep going with this tighter target business until there is about ten competitors left in Australia.I have been to a lot of ranges and competitions and this doesn't happen very often. Good shooting on the day,but even so there was no problem to sort out the winner.

I agree with you Mike, targets do not need to be altered in any way.........UNTIL there are regular shoot-offs required to determine a winner! I haven't seen this yet. This is really an administration thing anyway, shoot-offs are time consuming & targets would need to be adjusted when that becomes a problem. There is nothing wrong with perfect scores, unless they become the norm & not a possibility. My opinion for what it's worth.
This approach always seems to come up when perfect scores are shot, remember one important thing, these shooters are GOOD & will still win no matter what target is shot at & the rest will still be where they are, down the list, by the way I have seen these shooters fail too (not often), what would we do then? Make the targets bigger?
Another thing to remember is that target shooting is a demanding sport & you only get out of it what you put in, hard work puts you in the winners circle, not target size! So I humbly suggest that we should not try to fix what's not broken! Lets save that until it is broken.
Congratulations to Ben, & Rod, great shooting Commiserations Matt!

Bloody Brilliant shooting

Great to see the NSW boys sharpening the scores in time for the Teams event in 2 months time.

We now know who to look out for

Cheers, and keep up the good work.

Actually I favour ten ring targets,and that is not a joke.
