Better day shooting
We got warmed up this morning shooting in the .410 ga event. The shotgun used to shoot in that event has significantly less pellets in each shell compared to the normal 12 ga. I didn't do that well in that event but neither did anyone else really. The high score so far in that event is pretty low compared to other high scores in the other small gauge events.
In the afternoon, we shot the 5-stand event and I shot pretty well. I could have done a bit better, as I missed a few straight-away shots that I shouldn't have. I also got a bit unlucky as after I hit my first target on one pair my gun jammed... the shell's brass separated from the plastic and I had to re-shoot the pair but ended up missing both of them the second time around (which is what counted). So that cost me a bird. But I finished with a 87/100 which was a pretty good score for myself considering the difficulty level of the targets.
I'm pretty tired out so I think I'm going to sleep soon. Tomorrow we just shoot one event, the Preliminary event which is 100 birds. After we finish with that, I'm going to try and get some online poker in.
