SPORTING CLAYS Well another year has passed, with all the National Sporting shoots over once again. Thanks to TVDA, Maureen, and the entire hard working club members who had spent 100’s of hours making this an event hard to improve on. We had four different events over five days shooting, and changing the fields after three events in the relentless heat conditions was big job. Special thanks must go to Maureen for her tireless work from start to finish, along with thanks also to Dave Hanner, Tony Coleman and Albie Hanson, for the work setting up some of the best targets seen for all of the events. Having transport to the fields for the shooters was a very big plus, and also helped keep the events on time. One helpful thing in organizing the event and has been in the past, is the postal entries. This helped getting each day started on time. 19 squads entered this way which was fantastic. Once again thanks to Martyn Coe (Beretta) for the 2 shotguns they sponsored over the events, and also to Geoff Wells (Kilwell/Gamebore) for their sponsorship over all the events. Also with TVDA adding in the extra prizes 2008 ISSF South Zone (south island) Balfour Gun Club 29-30 November Paul Wilson Skeet HOA for 4th 5th & 6th made the trophy table blazing.
