DAVEY JONES DEFEATS TOP FIELD

Some top scores were recorded at the Wangaratta Clay Target Club April 5 100 target Stand championship shoot held on Sunday 12th.  The range of targets were set to suit all capability levels and many positive comments were made during the day by visiting competitors about the excellent targets thrown.

It can be a challenge for the trap setters to arrive at a happy compromise to satisfy both experienced and newcomers alike.  However, this was achieved on the day by keeping shooters of all experience levels satisfied with the wide range of targets thrown.

Davey Jones, from Myrrhee,  scored a brilliant result of 93/100 winning A grade and overall champion on the day,  with Liam Whyte in 2nd place in A grade on 83/100.  AA grader Nicholas Mazurek won his grade after a short shoot off  with a result of 97/110, defeating Ben Woodhouse 95/110.  Local junior shooter Rhys McGauran had a great day winning B grade with a tally of 83/100 ahead of Barry Ellis on 82/100.  It was nice to see Allan Sinclair put in a splendid performance smashing 75/100 targets winning C grade placing Benalla shooter Max Gribben in 2nd on 70/100.  Allan earned himself a grade change for his top performance.

Victor Bowman took out the veterans prize with a score of 81/100 and Max Sammon won the Juniors trophy shooting 61/100.
