After a slight delay to the start of the season, off we went with a bang… well a shiver, and Shebbear done us proud. Rich and the team had made a few subtle changes to the course to take the predicted weather into account, which turned out to be just as well. Temperatures were as […]
Random Partners
As we are just a week away from the start of the SWEFTA season, I think now is the time to release details of the new, new, new…. new random partnering system, it is very simple and will make very little difference to the booking in system and the time it takes to book in, […]

Round 10 SWEFTA League – Mendip
I was not at the Mendip shoot, but fine weather, a clearance by Simon Evans on the FT course and a close call by James Head on the HFT course makes me think it was a corking good day. Well done to Tony, Mike and Malc for two excellent courses and an extremely smoothly run […]
Round 9 SWEFTA League – Dartmoor
I wasn’t able to make this shoot, but I believe the weather was much better than forecast, although blustery and the cake was of a volume and quantity to make even myself or The Awesime giddy with anticipation. Thanks to everyone at Dartmoor for the work leading up to and on the day and for […]

In addition the ladies did us proud, with a plentiful supply of burgers (for Roger, obviously), bacon, sausages etc, as well as drinks and […]
