UPDATED: 8th March Sporting Scores and ABT County Championship
A mixed day weatherwise, with wind, rain and sun. None of which deterred the shooting community, who turned out in droves. Several tricky stands ruined what may have been great scores. High Gun was Ben Morris with 87, followed by a three way tie for second – Steve Donson, Pete Squires and Ollie Hughes, shared …

Winter 19-20 Sporting Series Scores Overall
The end of the winter series that has seen week after week of tough conditions, including the 9th Feb, which was limiting us to a 50 target shoot, and leading to us not including it in the series. As ever though those that shot consistently across the now 5 shoots were rewarded with the top …

15th December Scores
The weather created some challenging conditions at the club today. Due to the high wind, Stand 2 was not quite what was set up, so it turned out to be very difficult. The Teal on Stand 1 wasn’t easy either. Other than that, the layout shot well. The Highgun was an excellent 81 ( given the conditions ) from Darren Wray who shot very …
