This 2 day event has become a regular feature on the Double Trap calendar.  The good weather conditions reflected excellent scores and for some, personal best and army MQS scores.

Saturday 13th September

1st   Steven Scott             142 + 48

2nd  Matt French              141 + 47

3rd  Stephen Walton         141 + 44

After shooting had finished, a BBQ  contributed by Derek Stewart who supplied the venison (together with Martin) ably cooked by Richard Shirley and Steve Cobb.  The traditional fun and games followed, including football, rifle shooting at beer cans, cricket and rugby.  Not too many injuries this year, however Derek managed to pull some muscles!  A competitive match of pool followed at the Woodman Inn.

Our thanks go to our inhouse security guards for the weekend - Mark Rees and his girls Paddy and Tilly, who bravely fought off Pikies trying to steel diesel from the generator in the early hours of Sunday.
