June 2024

Another great, varied shoot today with an occasional gusting wind making stands two and four even more interesting! Crossing pairs which sometimes slowed and dipped and a high, Midi overhead which also slowed and dipped sometimes. (Did you spot that it was a Midi and not too far away? If not, read the signs on the stands for clues in future!)

Thanks as usual to Andy, Matt and Stuart and everyone else who helped set up and break down, and a special thanks to Andy who spent some time at the start troubleshooting the traps and targets, then wasn’t in the mood to shoot his layout.

As for the scores, Kevin Scarlett won AA for the third month running with a score of 54, one ahead of Glen Boxall.

After careful scrutiny of the score cards and checking the adding up, A Class produced a three-way tie with Nigel Foreman, Matt Brabon and James Faulkner all scoring 50. Our countback procedure takes the highest number of straights, nines, eights and so on and Nigel dropped out leaving James and Matt still tied. We then dropped to the next level to see who scored the first ten, and it was James on stand one so he wins A Class. Bad luck Nigel and Matt and well done to James. Incidentally, James was the only person from 40 entries who hit all ten on the rabbit stand.

Chris Wells took B Class honours with 48 ahead of Aaron Wiggins and Chris Flanders tied on 45.

Ian Parish triumphed in C Class with 45. Charlie Palmer was in second with 41 and James Oakford was third with 36. Charlie and James are regulars at our Skeet evenings so obviously the practice seems to help.

A special mention to Junior Otis Oakford, another Skeet regular who scored his highest sporting score of the year today with 30.

Come and join us at NCSC Bisley on a Wednesday evening from 5pm to 7pm and see if it also helps your sporting scores.
