| What a great day yesterday for the Norm Iron Sporting team comin | |
| runners up in the senior & junior team events, to be honest no | |
| one is ever likely to beat England as they are too big and have | |
| too many quality shooters for the other home countries to catch | |
| them but a Brilliant day for us with Ian gettin a runners up | |
| badge on his first attempt shootin sportin for our country. | |

| Well done lads. But with an attitude like that then you will | |
| never win but if you put the effort in you can be as good as | |
| anyone. All the best with the next competition lads. | |

| .22 England is many times the size of NI and have 25 times more | |
| shooters than us plus some of their best shots don't even bother | |
| goin as it's not a big enough occasion for them, this year they | |
| had a World champion and an Olympic gold medal winner and a few | |
| professional shooters and coaches on their side, the Home Inters | |
| have Always been dominated by England and always will for many | |
| reasons, their shooters get a lot of sponsorship from shootin | |
| companies and private companies but over here sponsorship is | |
| very difficult to get if not impossible believe me, I'm quite | |
| lucky as my son has a few sponsors but only until this week none | |
| were from over here, one was from UK and the other US, but that | |
| sponsorship isn't for money it's for shootin gear and cleaning | |
| products, the sponsorship Ian got last week was from Wade | |
| Training for cash to help him buy shells for the year and I can | |
| tell you we were Very grateful ... | |

| That's fair enough semi but surely talent has nothing to do with | |
| money and sponsorship. That would come when you are winning. But | |
| being involved in a sport which is not shooting and anyone who | |
| is involved in any type of sport will agree that if you don't | |
| believe that you are good enough or have a chance then what's | |
| the point? Do you compete not believing your good enough or not | |
| have a chance. | |

| I know my limitations and everyone has them, not all of us can | |
| be George Digweed or Tiger Woods etc but we can and must try If | |
| we want to reach a standard that we are happy with, sponsorship | |
| & money are a big part of reachin the top in any sport but | |
| firstly you have to have "IT" to start with, if you've a talent | |
| for somethin the more you put into it then the more you get out | |
| of it but shootin clays is so very expensive so practice is very | |
| limited, if you've a talent to start with time & money to work | |
| make a Big difference. | |
