WITH a hot day forecasted numbers were down but for those who came and shot, there were some great scores at the Wangaratta Clay Target Club. Rhys McGauran shot two clean rounds of 25 and finished with a 95/100 to take out AA grade over his dad Shaun McGauran, shooting 92/100. Regular visitor from Wodonga, Mark Reynolds, took out A grade shooting 89/100 with Paul Crittenden from Wagga taking out second with 87/100. Local butcher John Gibb won B grade with an 83/100 and Barry Ellis took second in B with 75/100. Unfortunately no C graders shot. The junior grade was fought out by the Chisholm brothers, with Anthony being the victor by one target with 68/100. David Jackel took home the Veterans trophy with an 89/100. Thanks must go to those who set up: Colin Crittenden, Ian Auranaune, Graham Coyle, Bill McInnes, Terry Pigram and John Gibb. Bruce Henshall made the best salad rolls for lunch, and Bob Glossop and Alison Harwood did an awesome job in the office. The club’s next shoot will be a Pre Duck Opening shoot on Sunday, April 14, with a 10am start. The club was well represented at Yarrawonga Gun Club on Sunday, with one of their newest members, Kanya Thumsud, cleaning up C grade in the double barrel and the points score with scores of 41/50 and 53/90, to win her first sash. B grade in the double barrel was taken out by Kudri Demaj, a long-time member of the club. Brock Thompson won AA grade in the points score and new committee member Greg Peterson was equal first in B grade for the points score with a score of 80/90 along with one of his former students Brock Bates.
