Very tricky wind at Lockhart on Saturday changing rapidly in strength and direction. You had to be quick to get a shot away before conditions changed. Adjustments went from 4 points left to 2 points right. But was at times stronger and best to wait those out.
Great to see John Smoothy back on the range and enjoying the afternoon.
Coming up in three weeks is the Lyndhurst Prize Meeting 16-17th March 2 day shoot. A great country shoot for those who can make it.
Reminder – Club membership fees now due.
