Bathurst Rifle Club Inc. 25th Aug 2018, W & J Brown Shield, 900yards
The final range of the W & J Brown Shield was abandoned due to the inclement weather on Saturday 25th and the trophy was decided on the results of the previous 700 and 800 yard ranges. Gordon Shepherd with a brilliant 800 yard shoot snatched the win from Geoff Willis by a mere ¼ of a point with Colin Howell just ½ a point further back.
The final trophy of the 2018 season will be the W & J Brown Consolation Trophy the competition for which is reserved for shooters who have not won a trophy during the year. The “Conso” will be held next Saturday 1st September on the 600 yard range. This will be the final shoot for the 2018 season because of the motor racing shutdown.
The new season will commence on Saturday 20th October with target calibration and practice in preparation for the 2018 Bathurst Rifle Club Inc. Annual Open Prize Meeting
