Skeet November 2014

Sammon shows how it's done

Richard Sammon put in a first class performance at Wangaratta Clay Target Club last Skeet shoot for 2014 on Sunday 30 November.  Almost five squads of skeet shooters rolled up on the day for another top day of shooting at this very popular club.

 Under hot, gusty and very humid conditions Sammon managed to win the overall champions sash dropping only two targets out of the 100 target event.  After shooting 48/50 in the first round, he went on to shoot 50 straight to claim the title.  Alan Kidd, another AA grader, won 2nd place on 94/100.  Mark Rosenboom from Griffith put in another great result of 94/100 to claim the A grade sash, just ahead of dedicated skeet enthusiast Dennis Savage 92/100.  B grade was nicely won by Peter Finn on 95/100 which left local member Brian Reid in 2nd place 93/100.  Finn was fairly selective when nominating on who his squad mates were, which obviously proved beneficial to his results.  Peter Roper from Mount Beauty won C grade with 90/100 ahead of Greg martin on 88/100.  Dennis Savage also won the veterans award on the day.

The clubs only shoot for December is our Xmas shoot which always proves popular due to the novelty events held and the relaxed and festive atmosphere on the day.
