When totalling results at the end of the day a phenomenon occurred where none of the AA grade or A-grade scores would have won B-grade, including the High Gun won by Colin Dorman who shot a very impressive 84 and won't be in B-grade much longer.
Dorman commented that it was the best he has ever shot, and seeing him in action he certainly was on fire.
Big thanks to our range setters Steven Cooper and Rob Murray along with Peter Rea and Bob Fergusson who came up with a cracker of a range with a great mixture of target presentation and varying difficulties.
Danielle McPherson did her usual million-and-one things for the club during the day along with keeping the office running smoothly with score sheets updated and uploaded to the television.
Overall results:
High Gun: Colin Dorman 84; AA Grade: Peter Kay 79; A Grade: Chris Bourke 82, Chris Everett 79 and Luke Cross 77; B Grade: Stephen Cooper 83, Stephen Smith 82, Rob Murray 80; C Grade: Ken Purvis 67, Mark Hosking 76, Simon Richardson 63; Seniors: Milton Cartwright 79, John Sidoti 76, Jake Guzelian 75; Veterans: Denis Coaker 78, Les Townsend 63, Bob Richardson 53; Ladies: Michelle Hooper 66, Mel Phillips 57 Jen Rushton 47; Juniors: Michael Vaughan 75; Sub juniors: Bryce Barker 48
