With 3 Olympic Trap ranges operating, day 2 was always going to be a breeze with only 50 targets plus the final to be shot. 'Perky' started well notching up a clean 25/25 to cement his position at the top while the rest of the field was left floundering - 23s being the best anyone else could record. After the sixth round, Kevin Perkins was still in the lead finishing with a 22 and a total of 140/150. Ben Kelly and Toshio Yasuda both recorded 24s in their last round to finish on 134/150 and take up the 2nd and 3rd positions in the final, two targets ahead of Ben Machul while Derek Bruce and Norihiro Umezu filled the final two spots after Umezu had to survive a shoot-off with Greg Newey for the last spot. For many - including all of the finalists, the final was a new experience, being shot under the new ISSF 'single barrel final' rule. Under this format, low 20s seem to be the norm but 'ever consistent' Kevin Perkins recorded a very nice 22/25 to take the overall honours and the winners spoils. For Kevin it was his first victory at the Brisbane "Grand Prix" after nearly 10 years of trying - the event could not go to a more deserving supporter. Perky has never missed a "Grand Prix" in Brisbane and thoroughly deserved his victory. Fellow Illawarra club member, Ben Kelly also showed that he will be one to watch in the future after surviving the final and a miss-and-out single barrel shoot off with Toshio Yasuda for AA Grade Winners.

May 2005 Australian Clay Target Shooting News Page 19 MarMarchch ShootShoot atat EchucaEchuca

Sunday March the 13th 2005 was a Victorian labour day long weekend, it could have gone either way with the attendance at Echuca Clay Target Club. Also the New Zealand DTL Nationals were on, which does attract a lot of Australian competitors, so to attract five full squads to the shoot, really, was a reasonable result for the Echuca Clubs committee. Echuca has recently been trying to shake off a name (undeservedly) for late starts to their shoots, so with an 11am start time listed, and, by that time all traps were ready, and practice had been running for an hour, it still took until 11-20 for enough shooters to arrive to fill the first squad. With 125 targets on offer for the days program, everybody was kept busy on the day. Weather was absolutely perfect for good shooting, 31 degrees, clear sky, no wind, and an excellent background, and results showed this with 244 targets shot to get a result in the Double Barrel event. With 30 plus shooters competing, and considering the long shoot off in the Double Barrel event, all were happy with the early 5-30pm conclusion to the shoot. Max Gribben a registered Cosgrove member collected Overall &

Ron Traill with Peter Sing Club Secretary High Gun.

AA in the first event a 50 target Pointscore, dropping only two points, and from there on, Jamie Elliot a Walmer member led the way shooting 244/244 in the DB to take Overall & AA, and a very good 56/60 in the Double Rise to collect once again, Overall & AA. Overall High Gun winner on the day was local member & Club President, Ron Traill. Full results for the shoot are as follows. Event One a 50 tgt Pointscore Championship, OA & AA M Gribben 148/150, AA 2nd Rob Viney 145/150, A 1st Greg Norris 145/150, A 2nd Peter Kerr 141/150, B 1st Peter Jamison a renewed Echuca member showing very good promise, (and with the handicappers promise of at least A grade promotion) shooting a 150 plus break over two events, 147/150, B 2nd Ron Traill 146/150, C 1st Brendon Hipwell 140/150, and C grade 2nd Mat Norris with a score of 121/150. Event Two a 25 tgt Double Barrel Championship, OA & AA J Elliot 244/244, AA 2nd Bendigo shooter Sydney Anstee 243/244, A 1st local, Greg Norris also shooting well collecting 2 firsts in A in 2 events, on 68/69, A 2nd Ray Northausen 26/27, B 1st Peter Jamison 108/109, B 2nd Geoff Strauss 36/37, C 1st B Hipwell 25/26, C 2nd M Norris. Event Three a 25 pair Double Rise Championship, OA & AA J Elliot 56/60, AA 2nd Jon Whittakers 55/60, A 1st Peter Kerr (Echuca) 43/50, A 2nd R Northausen 42/50, B 1st R Traill 42/50, B 2nd Kevin Yates 48/60, C 1st Simon Boyd (Echuca) 35/50, and C 2nd Steven Scott on a 33/50. Overall High Gun winner was a very happy Ron Traill, with a 213/225 score for the day, Ron has been unhappy with his scores recently, but this looks like he is making a return to good form.

It was not long before 21 squads were filled and the scoreboard became a regular visiting place as shooters checked out the opposition. After shooters had found their eye, the 50tgt D/B Championship, sponsored by Aquanaught to the value of $6000, commenced with many people keen to secure one of the Sports Watches on offer as graded prizes. John Maxwell and Graham Gosling both had their eye on the same $1600.00 watch for overall and a long shoot off started.

The Committee had decided to purchase 50,000 AA White Flyer High Dome targets for the weekend due to their very stable trajectory, and this decision proved to be a good one for Cessnock shooter Paul Jackson who swept the field with an impressive 49 to take the Single Barrel Overall trophy of a Canon digital camera and printer. The weather had once again cleared to a fine afternoon and a pleasant temperature with the weatherman predicting a beautiful day on Sunday. Surprisingly for a weather forecast, it was spot on, and Sunday dawned to be even better than hoped for. All of the shooters had inspected the prize pool after shooting on Saturday, so many were keen to contest the 25tgt Handicap first thing on Sunday. Junior C grade15m shooter Chris Gooch from Tamworth, passed the comment that the Handicap High Gun trophy, sponsored by Horsley Park and Miroku, of a Model 10 shotgun would look good at his place, and after shooting the possible followed by a Sec Graham Gosling, Chris Gooch Handicap winner & Pres Ross McLean. shoot off with fellow Junior Ben Norris from Sandy Hollow and David White from Cessnock, that's exactly what he did. The 50tgt Pointscore Championship was another hotly contested event, with TV's from Anseline Retravision up for grabs in each grade. Once again, John Maxwell was in great form to take out the Overall with a 149/150. The biggest problem John had for the weekend was how to fit the 68cm TV in the door of the Winnebago! The final event for the weekend was the 15pair Double Rise, which can very quickly make a very good high gun score look very ordinary! Not so for the inform John Maxwell who again showed how much he was enjoying the weekend to shoot a clean 30/30. Over the weekend it was encouraging to see so many junior shooters not only attending, but also showing some seasoned shooters just how it's done. Total prizes for the Juniors were; Miroku shotgun, 68cm TV, $400 Cash, Sound Systems and Cartridges from Tamworth Firearms and NLMCTC. Thankyou to all local and visiting shooters who came to enjoy the weekend, hoping to Junior Northern Zone Team, Ben Norris, Tim Burke & James Gilbert. see you again next year.

Page 28 Australian Clay Target Shooting News May 2005 2005 Shot Expo Report

Saturday was busy with over 3,500 people paying to attend the Inaugural Expo. With these numbers the Exhibition Hall soon required additional ventilation with industrial fans being brought in and the rear paneled door being opened. Sunday saw an increase in the numbers attending and the interest in obtaining firearms licences and clay target shooting (God bless our Olympic Athletes) increase. I have prepared a summary of the types of inquiries and approximate time taken with each person. Though there were some who spent far more of their time with us and we were delighted to catch up with old friends from different disciplines, such as Pistol shooting form 20 years ago and George, Alex and Domenic who shoot on Friday nights with us. There were Queensland shooters from Warwick and Brisbane, and the Victorian shooters who were not stall holders but came to Sydney specifically for the Expo. Approx inquiry time spent: Sydney Clay Target Club Stall at the Shot Expo. 30 x How to obtain a firearms licence? 3mins per enquiry 20 x Field and Game - Sporting clays, what are the different matches? 3 - 4mins 50 x Clay target shooting and firearms licence (inquiries from Waratah unlicenced shooters) 4 - 5mins 30 x Clay target shooting (inquiries from licenced shooters) 4 - 5mins Holiday Units 40 x Geographical location of nearest CTC to person making inquiry 2mins One and two bedroom suites, 250 x Seeking info on clay target shooting-different matches, Olympic disciplines etc 2mins fully equipped. Referrals to other ACTA clubs: 100 metres from beach, ocean views. One 15 x NSW gun club hour drive from Coffs Harbour, one hour drive 5 x The Forrest to Port Macquarie. Surfing, beach and bush 15 x Cecil park walking, rock and surf fishing, golf, tennis, There were also lots of inquiries from Blackheath and the Blue Mountains area. I also meet Secretaries of many Clay Target Clubs bowls. Nightly bookings accepted. from all over NSW including Alison from the Shoalhaven. Special discounts for ACTA members. We all enjoyed the very rewarding experience of being involved in such an enthusiastically received event and look forward to next time. Contributed by Mrs Gene Bernar, Sydney Clay Target Club
