THE Euroa Clay Target Club conducted two championship events on Sunday. The first event, the Victorian State Tower Single Barrel drew some 37 competitors from the surrounding clubs, all aiming for a chance to win the Overall Sash. AA grade tower specialist, Colin Finn proved the superiority in tower shooting scoring the only possible 25/25. Ethan Bazzano, one of Euroa’s promising junior shooters, shot a very credible 23/25 to take out the C grade sash. Then in the second event, the Eurack Medley Championship, it was Colin’s father Peter who proved the best in this challenging event having to shoot 75 targets being 25 double barrel, 25 single barrel followed by 25-point score. His score was 121/125 four targets clear of any other score.
