July 2022

On a hot summer day, 34 members and 12 guests took part in this month’s shoot.
The layout was set up over 7 stands with a variety of targets.

First mention must go to Phil Saich, whose car went into limp mode and broke down on the way to the shoot. Phil’s shooting very much didn’t though, as he achieved a personal best of 50, winning C class by a large margin (and he would have triumphed in A class on countback).
B class winner was Alex Blackwell on 47 and Kevin Scarlett topped A class with 50.
In non-trophy AA class, Glen Boxall’s 58 was the highest score of the day.

A big thank you to all who helped set up, run and pack away the shoot in the uncomfortably warm conditions.

June 2022

Attendance was down again this month with just 31 members and a handful of guests.

The layout over 7 stands was deceptively tricky for some.

Well done to one of our newest members, Ian Parish, on his first trophy win in C class with a fine 40 scored. B class was topped by Chris Wells on 47, which was the second highest score of the day. Des Park was high gun and winner of A class with an excellent 49.

Congratulations to all of our winners and a big thank you to all those involved with setting up, running the shoot and packing away afterwards.

May 2022

36 Members and a handful of guests (not all of whom handed in their score cards) attended the May shoot. Unfortunately the weather turned wet half way through the morning and the rain continued in the afternoon whilst packing away.

Scores were up across the board today compared to recent months and the results were close in all classes.

In C Class, Richard Collins and Ron Turner both scored 41, with five levels of countback need to separate them and resulting in Richard winning the John Spooner Trophy.

The winner of the Reg Rice Cup in B Class was Alex Wells with a very good 50 and in A Class the Valdar Gates Cup was won by James Horrod with an excellent 53.

In the non-trophy AA Class both Glen Boxall and Andy Willett scored 56.

Well done to everyone and as always thanks goes to all who helped with setting up, running and packing away afterwards.

April 2022

On a sunny Easter Sunday, 31 members and 12 guests shot today on a varied layout that clearly suited some more than others.

First mention should go to Gary Evans. High Gun and winner of A class with a brilliant 50, even the trailing pair of Easter Bunnies couldn’t faze Gary on the day. Well done!

Elsewhere…
AA class was topped by Glen Boxall on 49, Ian Hargreaves triumphed with a fine 45 in B class and Alex Spooner was just one clay behind with an outstanding 44 to take C class.

The club offers a warm welcome to a number of new members today: Rick Warrington, Jon Watson, Ian Parish and Steve Keane.

As always thanks goes to all who helped with setting up, running and packing away afterwards.

March 2022

32 members and 15 guests turned out today to shoot in warm and sunny spring-like conditions. The layout was over the usual 7 stands, with a wide variety of targets and hopefully something for everyone.
Top score in C Class was 37 by Peter Garland and B Class was won by Chris Clark on 43. There were two scores of 50 today; Glen Boxall in AA and Andy Willett in A.
All scores are below.
Well done to all of our winners and many thanks to everyone involved in preparing, running and packing away this weekend.

February 2022


Turnout this month for the last round of the 2021-2022 Winter Series was on the low side, with just 29 members and 7 guests in attendance. Most likely this was due to the current weather and the strong and gusting wind did make the targets more challenging.
Top score today was 47, achieved by both Glen Boxall and Peter Saich. On countback with 2 straights to 1, Glen topped A Class and is promoted to AA.
B Class was won by Des Park on 43 and with 37, Jerry Sollick top scored in C Class.

The conclusion to the Winter Series saw a very close finish in all three classes. The top 3 positions in each class are as follows:

A Class
Peter Saich 136
Matt Oldland 134
Andy Willett 132

B Class
Chris Clark 120
Adrian Joy 118
Alex Blackwell 116
Aaron Wiggins 116

C Class
Jerry Sollick 102
Ron Turner 100
Phil Saich 99

January 2022

32 members and 16 guests attended the January shoot on a day of changeable weather, with periods of alternating fog and sunshine coming and going.
Firstly a huge thank you to everyone involved in preparing, setting up, running and packing away afterwards.
The layout was an unintentionally tricky one this month with perhaps a few too many technical/difficult to read targets.
Worthy recipients of the John Tarryer Cups for winning the randomly drawn handicapped Pairs Competition this year were Stuart Hulme & Gary Evans with a combined score of 118.82. In second place were Phil Saich & Matt Oldland on 114.09 and third place was taken by Charlie Palmer & Paul Trusler with 112.63.
The full results of the Pairs Competition are here, an update after Round 3 of the Winter Series is here, whilst unadjusted class scores for January are below.

December 2021

On a very foggy December day our Christmas shoot was well attended by 42 members and 16 guests. The reduced visibility made a few of the targets a little tricky but everything was hittable.

Several Middlesex Woodpigeon Club members joined us this month for one of their Winter Series shoots; they were Dave Cole (48), Graham Hibberd (46), Steve Cole (43), Ian Young (38), Peter Davey (33) and Nigel Light (26).

For our members, alongside the monthly class-based trophy competitions we ran the traditional handicapped Christmas competition with prizes; the top 10 scores choosing a bottle of spirit with everyone else taking a bottle of wine.

Congratulations to one of our newer members, Janice Wallace (38), who triumphed in the handicap competition and won C Class this month. B Class was won by Aaron Wiggins (46) with A Class and High Gun taken by Matt Oldland with a fantastic 50.

Well done to all of the winners and a big thank you goes to everyone involved in organising and operating the shoot.

November 2021

39 members and 16 guests attended this month’s shoot which saw the welcome return of Paul with his burger van.
Huge thanks as always go to everyone who helped set up and pack away.
The layout, over 7 stands, was unintentionally tougher than lately and even more challenging for the side-by-side shooters who competed in the Surrey CPSA and Webley & Scott competitions. The results also comprise the first round of the 2020-2021 Winter Series.
Given the tricky targets a big well done to all of the class winners who were: Daren O’Toole (AA), Andy Baker (A), Alex Blackwell (B) and Peter Garland (C).
Side-by-side winners were Steve Cole (CPSA) on countback and Phil Saich (non-Surrey, Webley & Scott).

October 2021

Numbers were down this month; 32 members and 3 guests returned scorecards at the end of the October shoot.

A big thank you to everyone who helped with setting up and packing away at the end of the shoot, it made a huge difference to the time the regulars were able to get away in the afternoon.
The usual 7 stands and mixture of targets challenged all abilities.
Well done to our class trophy winners this month: Daren O’Toole returned to shooting with us after a long absence to take A Class and High Gun with 54. James Faulkner topped B Class with 51 and C Class went to Chris Tailby on 47.
