Re: North QLD Queens
I sadly wont make the whole event, but should be able to shoot last couple of days if nothing else goes wrong (problems involving one of my rentals and me with arm up sewer pipes, yes it was smelly..).
From what I hear everyone is getting washed away with the rain so far, hopefully it subsides a bit for the main even.
Good luck everyone, cant wait to get there even if it is raining

Re: North QLD Queens
I just checked the weather and it seems Brownsville is getting 80mm of rain today!!!!
I thought that was its yearly average?
Oh well, it is only 30mm tomorrow,

Re: North QLD Queens
Still pissing down rain here... The Wilson match on day 2 somewhat abbreviated.
I'm shooting the Queen's but not keen on a soaking. A pity one of the mound SDU's was taken out on the TMRC APM... This reduced the number of targets available to 8. Not the best outcome at the best of times but with this weather... There will be an interesting committee meeting regarding this...

Re: North QLD Queens
I am obviously not there but getting a bit of feedback form the coal face. Yes obviously they had a very rare rain event that held up proceedings for a couple of days but yesterday went down fine and looks OK for today.
Some magnificent scores coming through and great to see Peter Smith recovered well from the SA trip and is still on fire. Marty chasing hard.
A nice 60.10 opening round from Stevo in his first major run in FO and a 60.9 by Peter Carter at 900m is nothing to be sneezed at either.
A little more breeze forecast for today up here and Townsville can get tricky for the last range with a miragy slop and fishtailing tailwind likely. - Hard to catch the likes of Peter Smith and Marty in those conditions.....

Re: North QLD Queens
Well done to all the Winners, especially Peter Smith. Good to see Marty, Phillip, Peter Carter and Stephen right there.
From what I heard though, Marty had a handy cap, as he had no sleep for two days due to Laz snoring so much.

Re: North QLD Queens
Thanks to all for the kind words. But I want to especially thank many people for the help they gave me carrying and moving gear.
The National Shooting Movement contains a lot of great people and it is a privilege to know them !
The 2017 Townsville Queens ended up being its usual relaxed friendly event despite a problematic start due to extreme weather. Then two days of perfect NQ winter weather descended on us. Conditions were very light but at times tricky and seeing was sometimes quite poor.
For what it's worth, My NF Comp scope never did anything questionable despite the operator behind it !
In FO, the difference between shooters was really quite small, and most of the individual range prizes were taken out by awesome scores better than mine.
Peter Smith.
