THE PIPELINE 12

With reference to the Pipeline 12 [Young in the field, November issue], no doubt on the day before you shoot the 12 are present, ditto the following day. Perhaps the 12 have learned that you shoot on the same day of the week on each occasion. Thus, if you (secretly) bring the shooting day forward by 24 hours you will no doubt catch them unsuspecting and triumph.

If this strategy proves successful, please feel free to invite me to join you on what would be a fun day. Naturally I will understand the code and be on parade 24 hours earlier than invited.
