Hey
Shot my first match today and i must comment it was nice to do so, i’ve really missed shooting. Its been a long journey so far and i know theres going to be even more to come.
Anyhow back to the shooting, today was the womens 50m prone pairs and badge match something i have been able to compete in even with the knackered ankle.
Thanks to the technology the Sius Ascor targets provide heres my shooting!
Michelle’s Prone Badge Match
and thanks to Donald McIntosh (the Scottish Coach) heres some photos of me on the range and the range.


So my match;
Went ok, there were some times when i flicked the shots up at 12/1 o clock and paid the price but i was really happy with my performance to say that prone hasn’t been my focus for the last few weeks.
In the badge match i was a happy 5th, 1 point of 2nd/3rd and 2 off 1st.. but thats ok wtih me.
In the pairs match we were second by 1 point.

Right off to bed as we have the individual match tomorrow.
I willl be posting a more comprehesive account of my trip soon.
Nighty night!!

Hi Mike here again with another update for you………………..
At last some proper training – pre-event training prone and she has managed to more than treble her shot count. After a bit of sorting out of what she is going to able to wear on her left foot and whether or not she could use her shooting boot and or strapping a decision seems to have been made and she then trained accordingly.
So after a few sighters she fired 20 to count and well the picture say it all – 200 x 200 – yes I know you are all saying that it is only training but it is the most positive sign that has come from India and Michelle whilst she has been out there and she is just so much happier to be shooting.

Pre-Event training - Prone
Bring on the Badge and Pairs match tomorrow morning (if you are interested and cannot sleep tonight you can watch the live match on the Suis Ascor website – just follow the link from the NSRA homepage from 0330hrs onwards)
Fingers crossed…………………………….
