2015/16 Sporting Winter Series

Another sporting series has come to a close, and it’s now time to do some maths to recalculate ( or calculate in some cases) new handicap numbers for the new series which starts on 28th Feb, note that the Valentine Shoot doesn’t count towards any series.

Although we’ve had a mild winter so far, some of this series shoots have given us challenging conditions, and it’s been good to see 52 members turning out at some point, with 9 managing to shoot every shoot. There is a discard system in place, in which you discard your worst result, and so missing one shoot isn’t disastrous – and this series High Gun goes to prove that you can win by dropping a ‘0’. Lee Pitman, took 1st place with a score of 425, from James Askew 411, and 3rd place Mick Gregson 394. ( scores are the sum the best 5 shoots from the series 6 ).

In the Handicap competition it’s a low scoring system, 1 point for first place, 2 for 2nd etc. the person with the least big score wins.

James Askew was top this series with 25, followed by Chris Beesley 29, and Iain Hall 45.
