Congratulations to all the winners and place-getters with special mention going out to Matt Gerstenberg who battled it out with Glenn Barton in the Double Barrel Continental shoot-off to claim another personal achievement of a 100 Target Continental Break Badge. Well done Matt and congratulations to Glenn who went on to win the shoot-off and claim first in AA Grade with a score of 137/138. Dave Crane once again shot like a champion to record a perfect score of 50/50 to take out Overall in the Continental event.
Tim Post and Sharon MacDonald also revisited the lanes to decide a B Grade Double Barrel Continental winner. Tim claimed victory with a solid score of 53/57.
The second event on the programme was 15 Pair Double Rise which once again saw Sharon MacDonald return to the lanes with Tim Post and Brian Frost to determine a B Grade winner. After the first five pair of extra targets Brian was out of the running and another five pair saw Sharon awarded the win with a score of 33/50.
The final event of the day once again required a shoot-off to determine second place in the Deauville Doubles. Tim Post and Phil Wales met Rohan Fleming and Arthur Pagett for another six pairs after both teams shot 19/20 in the event proper. Rohan and Arthur from Goulburn proved too good for the Yass pairing and claimed second place behind Glenn Barton and Kim Turner who shot a perfect 20/20 with Kim carrying Glenn most of the way. Well done Kim and Glenn.
A final shoot-off was required to determine High Gun for the day as both Dave Crane and Glenn Barton finished up level. Dave was carryover High Gun winner from last month but couldn't make it two in a row with Glenn victorious after a handful of extra continental and double rise targets.
