G'Day Tony & thanks for asking..
Mate as far as we're concerned the day was a great success !! The weather was our main concern but as it turned out even though overcast and the odd spit it was a dry, but cool day. We had 4 FO shooters, 3 FS A Shooters and 11 FS B shooters along with those other FullBoring Shooters a total of 38 competitiors. There would have been a larger turnout from the F shooting mob as I received a dozen emails apologising for non attendance largely due to work committments. We coppers get our weekends on a Tues, Wed, Thurs or Fri, never a Sat or Sun for obvious reasons and thats why our club shoots mid-week.
As aware we had last minute range restrictions dropped on us but we perservered & it was interesting to shoot 2 x 300's which caught quite a few people out for some reason. Dont know if it was the pressure of the comp or the change in format but very few possibles were shot. Having said that all the scores were VERY close and once again it came down to centres and countbacks for placings.
A huge thanks has to go to all the volunteers from both the Werribee & Bacchus Marsh RCs who really make these days happen. Especially the ladies in the kitchen !! Have had nothing but positive feedback from all who attended and we intend to make it a permanent 3 day fixture now in conjunction with the Bacchus OPM and the Anzac Day Shoot including further prizes for Agg over the 3 days.
Scores will be posted shortly when all calculated but I can say that bloody Alan Fraser did it again !!! Oh well, there's always next year and he's not geting any younger you know
Main thing is a good day was had by all. Cheers Andy. D
