Guns & Game Magazine / Peter Kay Gunsmith

Saturday 9^th June

The clouds opened up and let some rain fall down on the start of the Long Weekend and shooters did not whinge about it. Just thanking the gods for wet stuff coming from the skies.

A couple of stands you seemed to of walked out 1-2 inches taller due to the mud sticking to the boots but I think that was used to some sort of advantage!

The Guns & Game Magazine teamed up with Peter Kay Gunsmith to host a great day of shooting. With the “lucky score” draw giving the chance of winning a new Miroku shotgun, all shooters went about what we all love to do! Hit targets (well we definitely try to).

Scores were very close with only 1 -2 between the grades

High Gun Winner was the Sneaky Senior Milton Cartwright with an 82

Sub Juniors

1^st – Charlie North 73

2^nd – Nicholas Lyne 66

3^rd – Ethan Kelly 52

 

The lucky drawn score was 29 so that score and next 4 under that were chosen to shoot off!

This score was a great opportunity for those who aren’t quite up there with the grade shooters and it consisted of a brand new shooter, a lady shooter who doesn’t get to shoot much and a sub junior.

Duncan Stephens, Alison Kelly and Aliza Purvis (there was a 4^th shooter but he had left already) shot off for a brand new shotgun. After a tie at the end of the first 25 targets, they turned around and shot them again!

Happy to say that our very own sub junior Aliza Purvis won herself a shot gun!

Many thanks to the sponsors Guns & Game Magazine and Peter Kay Gunsmith.
