Sorry, Dean. I'm bad to use abbreviations carelessly.
Thanks, Garry.
Forgot to mention a little personal "triumph" of the afternoon, a double. Birds number 8 and 9 came straight towards me with another dove. I took the first, no. 8, straight on. At the shot the other two veered to my left and I took the second, no.9, with the left barrel, as a crosser. Maybe three seconds separated the two shots.
Bird no. 10 was a hard left to right crosser with a stiff north tailwind. When I picked it up I paced the distance back to my blind. Though I shot it at a much closer distance, between it's forward speed helped by the stiff wind and how high it was it had fallen 134 paces from where I shot it.
