As the rest of the team has already left to attend the royal league matches in Olso leaving only me, Kenny and Pickle left for today’s training.   I stared the morning with bit of kneeling training and followed it by air in the afternoon.  

Again frustrations were creeping in with kneeling and trying to get the correct equilibrium for balance and stability….  But the frustrations got too much for me so I’ll get  on with more work with it when I get home…  on a positive note I have found that its better if I move the sling down the arm as this reduces the pulling of the jacket across my back

We had to break in the finals hall at lunch time so that it could be cleaned and tidied before the caretaker went home.  Thankfully, as Hannover has such a great facility, we could move into the air range to continue our training in the afternoon.

Air training proved to be great fun, transferring the lessons learn throughout the week, as well as having a good laugh shooting a “bundasliga” style match with Kenny….  Of course he beat me (Kenny is shooting excellently at the moment) but I was just happy to be there, happy to be training with the boys, happy to have gained knowledge/ learnt lessons but mostly I was happy that I was eager within myself to get training more when I got home, not only in the range but at the gym also.

I did have one totally numpty moment when I packed up my kit ready for the flight home:  Note to self – tighten my torque bolts on my air rifle in future!!!!!!!!
