Nicely done Tim, and you too at 300 Rod. I seem to remember the first 60.10 at Lower Light was only a month or two back.
The 700 scores in F-Open were amazing. You have to sympathise with Neville Roberts. Imagine getting up with a 60.4 then finding you finished 14th out of 15
It wasn’t calm either. We had 2.5 to 2 3/4 Moa on.
Good luck to you all tomorrow, a very close contest. Brett 418.41 Tim 418.40 Rod 418.40 Mike 416.41 Stuart 416.35 Tim, are you using your new 6x47 all the way or 7mm at the longs ?
I went out for a bit of a look today and saw some exceptional shooting . . . . . . . The conditions certainly weren't mild with small but very quick changes both on the flags and mirage. Those that could keep in the groove posted some excellent scores.
To have the top 3 FO shooters separated by an X and only 2 points down for 6 ranges shows the level hast been brought home from the world's. Hats off to those guys!
Watching Mick Punti shoot today makes me wonder how pointy the FTR game is going to become over the next few years . . . . . . 90.9 at 600 and only 3 points down for the day when open was 2 points down is some of the best FTR shooting I've seen!
Hey Ben My intention was to shoot this Queen’s with my 6x47 but I couldn’t get it sorted in time so took my 7saum and the 2 barrels I used in Canada So far so good. Brett has a commanding lead of 1 Super center and with 2 points between 1st and 5th- tomorrow is just about anyone’s. Bring it on
We don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training. Archilochos 680-645 BC
Sunday morning and fouling shots completed. There’s nothing quite like the smell of gunpowder first thing in the morning. Wind has changed direction this morning and is coming from the east. The day looks great and there will be cheers or tears soon enough.

Any luck Davies will still be asleep after I snuck out of the room this morning with the blinds down

The stage is set for a memorable final day in F-Open. With those similar X-counts it might even end in a shoot-off . Whoever wins will have well and truly earnt it . Good luck to the contenders in all classes.
Well done Tim ,much deserved after your strong showing in Canada last year. Commiserations to Rod. Congratulations to the other division winners. The person I feel for is Rhyder Atkinson who led TRA up to 900m, and got hammered. Going by the scores posted around that time a few quality shooters also shared the pain , ouch. Cheers
. Whoever wins will have well and truly earnt it

. Amazingly, this is Tim's first Queens win, long overdue for someone of his ability.
