The weather was kind to Wangaratta Clay Target Club members on Sunday, August 31, with shooters out in their droves.

The club had a fantastic turn up of 78 shooters – unfortunately, with the amount of shooters and a few early trap breakdowns, they ran out of daylight and the last two squads were unable to finish the event.

The usual thanks to those who spent time setting up, which is always a huge job.

Appreciation also goes to those who helped pack up in the dark (with the use of headlamps) and those who refereed and scored throughout the day.

Bruce Henshall was rushed off his feet at lunch and had to retire to the RSL to recuperate, while Bob Glossop and Alison Harwood worked their magic in the office to make things run smoothly.

There were 11 25s shot on the day, and one of the junior shooters, Finn McBurnie, shot 50 straight.

The 25s were shot by: Xavier Russell, Zayne Papaluca, Marty Seymour, Greg Morey, Mark Reynolds, Brett Jory, Bill Zogoiannis, Alan Fuge and Tom Challis.
