We were lucky that as forecast, the weather front passed through overnight to leave much less wind & the rain held off, to reveal an exciting & challenging layout, with quite a few simo pairs. A big climber in the Skeet ground caught a few out, but it was still enjoyable. Spare a thought however …

A great day at the club, with kind weather for the first time in a while, light blue skies and no crazy wind moving the targets around (too much). There was a fab layout with one or two testing stands. It was really well shot by Leon Clifton with the top score of 90, followed …
