The club was very pleased to be able to host a great weekend of clay target competition to celebrate the 70th Anniversary. The grounds looked a picture and although the weather conditions on Saturday were not ideal, a strong turn-out of shooters along with their families, arrived ready to take part.

The Cowra Bowling & Rec Single Barrel Championship was taken out by Tony O’Leary with a perfect score, under very trying conditions, of 30/30. This was followed by the Club Cowra Double Barrel Championship which was won by visiting shooter, Clinton Hawke after a shootoff with Darryl Weal and Nathan Burt.

Sunday’s weather was much improved although the wind was quite gusty & nippy! The Agfactor Pointscore Championship saw Aaron Jones from Sydney, win with a score of 117/117.

The premier event for the weekend, the Glenn Sinclair Memorial Champion of Champions, was won by Will Crawford with a near perfect score of 124/125.

Great shooting considering the event covers the three main disciplines of clay target competition, Double Barrel, Single Barrel & Pointscore.

The Overall High Gun, which is awarded to the competitor with the highest cumulative score for the weekend, was won by local Tony O’Leary with a very impressive score of 335/345. Terrific marksmanship considering the weather conditions.
