Not everyone does HFT, but our Special guest Roger Lait explains, enthuses and entertains us about this form of airgun competition. Also featuring the Air arms S400 .
Another fantastic "Hot Air" video. Roger Lait certainly blended in well with "the Boys". The banter combined with explanations really made this another entertaining video
Said hello to Roger this morning at Cambridge HFT and told him that this video was the reason why I had joined the club and got into air rifles. Brilliant. What a great guy. His enthusiasm is infectious lol
Brilliant episode gents, really informative and enjoyable. And thanks for my MK4 Lloyd, recieved it yesterday and am chuffed to bits with it 👍 atb Kane
Fantastic vid lads ... so interesting and informative, this particular episode was AWESOME , could have watched a 5 hour extended version with ease , so much better ( by a country mile) then the s**t served up by auntie beeb and the rest of the crap channels we seem to have a 1000 of ... keep up.the excellent work ... cant wait for part 2 ...
Thank you so much Mark. I think we still have a long way to go to be honest but slowly but I think we are going in the right direction . Things will get a lot better when we get the range sorted out which should be in early next year :)
Roger is a very interesting bloke and a top one at that. I've just started to get into hft and the videos I've seen about him talking about hft are brilliant. Love the man's enthusiasm 👍👍
Hi Guys,that was superb,i have always fancied a go at HFT but never got any further than that, Roger makes a very good case to 'have a go', just been on the HFT Masters website,now i am thinking why i have not heard of this before,can't wait for part 2
GeeTee Nice, I'm in south Yorkshire. HFT doesn't do too bad up here, Midlands seem to have a lot of dedicated HFT clubs, in our region it's mainly FT clubs that also do HFT. I'm a member of Emley Moor FTC, it's a club in the NEFTA organisation, near netherton Wakefield. Have a Google of NEFTA (North East field target Association) for local clubs. We have regional comps that are open to visitors, infact there's a HFT comp at Redfearns FTC (near Barnsley) this Sunday.
Thanks for the info,actually i have been trying to get into Emley club for some time,i live in Huddersfield so is local to me, every time i check,the website tells me there are no vacancies,i will look at the Redfearns site, from what you said in the video,HFT is the next stage in my development of the Shooting sport, Kind Regards Graeme
GeeTee Hi Graham, I'm Mark just call me lanky. We keep our numbers to a manageable number, so usually needs someone to leave before someone can join. Have you visited Emley before?
Hi Lloyd and Tony, Just about to post this question on your last show and you guys uploaded this! Great timing and great video for a newbie to HFT like me. If you have the time I was hoping to ask for your opinion on the FX smooth twist and smooth twist X barrels over something like the Walther Lothar barrels Daystate uses. I was looking for a rifle I could use for a bit of pest control but mainly to shoot at my local HFT club. I was originally set on the Huntsman Regal until Daystate brought out the Regal HR, which although messing with the looks of the Huntsman slightly, would probably be the sensible way to go. However this pushes the Huntsman up into the Streamline price bracket. I contacted ASI and have been told by them that the Streamline now comes with the X barrel and that a single shot adapter will soon be available from FX. So although the regulated Regal still beats the Streamline on looks which barrel will give the most stable flight for the .177 Diablo at 45-50 yards? Love the show! Check at least twice a day to see if you have uploaded a new episode! Keep going please! All the best Neil
this is phenomenal , and .... I really fancy a go.... i could not manage the usual ft / hft as i cannot bend kneel etc due to disability. walking is extremely difficult but with a stick can be done. even prone cant be achieved at times
Tony as you’re the man in the know, can you say if AirArms will be bringing regulators to the TDR510? I’m hanging off getting one because of your earlier mention in a vid
No i do shoot 3 position ft tho and am after a new rifle soon cannot make my mind up wether to get a ev2 or just get a stock for my lsd custom hw80k and stay at the spring piston class because ft pcp class is out of hand lolthe reason i want a new stock is because im a lefty and my 80 has a stock erm well stock on it i do like the ev2 but id have to sell my tx and my 99s and a huge part of my brains like erm no way but lets face ot the air arms ev2 is stunning
Ahh, in nz we don't call it Lego...CHOKO....every kid will digest and every a+e nurse had one a day.. it...used to be 2 cents here, yes damn thing deserves its own name from knees or a skate...
Has anyone ever tried air gun INSTINCTIVE. No sights, lift the gun and shoot. Like field archery. Im doing it, and getting bloody good, (the force lol). But seriously this could be a new discipline. Great fun 30yrds. Brain muscle memory magic!!. I think with springers is best, but try everything. Let me know. Tell Blackpool. Learn the way from field archery channels.
weweko kowe some airlines are fine with it , you must empty the gun of air of course and you must take the gun through its own security . It’s dead easy and worth doing BUT check with the airline first , Ryanair don’t like Guns sadly 😔
Hi Chris, the numbers suggest that a lot of people are interested in HFT, and anyway we should cover aspects of our sport from target shooting, airsoft and hunting
Hi Chris. I think quite a few people are interested in HFT , the feedback from this video has been really positive. Keep watching though , we will be covering lots of stuff apart from HFT :)
