Veteran Shooters win First Two Championships

THE North Eastern Zone Towers Championship was the first event held at the Euroa Clay Target Club's competition shoot on Sunday, November 9. This event is a challenging one as the targets are thrown from a platform some nine metres above the shooters head and are hurled over 70 metres before landing. Just one competitor, veteran John King managed to hit all 25 targets and so won this event outright. The second event, the 20t Double Barrel Gift also was won by veteran Rob Stackhouse who outshot Alexandra's Geoff McClure in the final Shoot–off scoring 29/29. The following event, the Single Barrel Gift was won by the Corowa club President, Royce Wojtowyez with the only 20/20 and the final event, the Pointscore Gift went to Mansfield Shooter Darren Clark.
