Important Announcement
from the President of
Armas Kemen Spain
Dear Current, Past, and Future Kemen Users,
Armas Kemen Spain is pleased to announce the appointment of Kemen Australia
(a division of Spartan Global Pty Ltd.) as the exclusive importers and distributors of
Kemen Shotguns in Australia once again. Kemen Australia were the original importers of
Kemen shotguns for Australia, and we are pleased to be working with them again.
Many of our customers have experienced some frustration with our last distributor
regarding parts and servicing issues. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have
caused our loyal customers.
Our shotguns are hand finished and custom made to the highest standards, and we
experience very few warranty issues compared to similar or more expensive priced
shotguns. We are aware that from time to time general “wear and tear” parts are required
and can confidently advise you that. Kemen Australia now has a good supply of parts that
are occasionally needed.
In addition, we are pleased to inform you that a factory endorsed gunsmith, will be
performing any warranty repairs. All Kemen shotguns come with a 10 year mechanical
guarantee.
We are currently finalizing plans for our factory master gunsmith and myself to visit
Australia again to perform custom gun fitting for new gun orders. Also, we will offer a
free and total factory service on all Kemen shotguns including retightening of older guns
in circulation. Details of our visit will be announced well in advance and will be extensively
advertised prior to our visit. More information will be available at
www.spartanaustralia.com. Please visit our web site for current pricing and updates.
We thank all our loyal customers for their support and look forward to servicing your
needs once again.

The Association board met in Brisbane on the 12th and 13th of
September to conduct all manner of ongoing ACTA business.
The Championships report in this issue reflects the general
satisfaction by members of the Nationals Programs currently
being shot and therefore they remain unchanged.
What I will try and do with this column into the future is
stimulate some discussion to help us over some of the hurdles we
face. Constructive input on these matters is always welcome.
I have recently attended three annual shoots where numbers
exceeded 100 and the atmosphere was great. Sponsors heavily
contributed at these venues and certainly made the events
worthwhile for the shooters. The small cost load on the club for
trophies resulted in the clubs being able to provide better catering, hospitality and in one
case entertainment at well below the real cost, and still achieve a strong financial return for
the club. A win for all. Most sponsors at these local and regional levels seem to be coming
from within the membership base, but at National level this is not the case and except for
the exceptional sponsorship provided by Casella Wines over the last few years our
Nationals sponsorship (although from our membership base) is mostly firearm industry
related. It is a priority for the Association to generate more sponsorship from outside of the
related industry and to date we have been successful with a major sponsorship for next year
from Coopers Tyres and a smaller deal with AVIS. Anyone with other possibilities please
contact Tony at the office.
A recent mail out to non-rejoining members revealed some interesting trends. Some had
joined other Associations, some had passed away and a small amount cited finances and
cost for not rejoining. A large number had paid their club months ago, and some said they
had not received an account. It appears that if more effort was put into retaining members
we could grow our Association at a reasonable rate. Some clubs are great at chasing
non-renewing members and some clubs do nothing. Some question the need for growth,
but government funding, at all levels, political clout regarding proposed firearms legislation
and sponsorship are all numbers games. Increased participation is of course the greatest
resulting benefit to all sections of our sport.
Should we consider a new method of collecting subscriptions, so we can deal direct with
ACTA registered shooters, without our member clubs in the middle? We would need to be
careful that we don’t dilute the screening that prospective members are exposed to by having
to initially join through a club, but perhaps after being through this process the Association
could then deal with them direct. The ACTA sending an account and collecting club fees, or
renewing on our website could be possibilities. I welcome any suggestions on this matter.
The support received form Tradesite holders at Nationals Championships is greatly
appreciated, and I am sure we all want to see them there each year. We need to look at
some way of getting more people through their tents, as it is expensive for them to be there
with tent hire, security, freight, staff costs etc. We all know the costs of accommodation and
travel these days. Shooters need to consider their purchases throughout the year and support
the sponsors and tradesite holders, whenever possible. I also welcome any suggestions on
this matter.
Good Health and Good Shooting.
Robert Nugent

Electronic Reports and Results/The New Age
With further development of our website facilities and the requirements
for this and printing the CTSN our ACTA Head Office will commence
moving towards electronic reporting. This process will start immediately with our template already available on the website http://www.
claytarget.com.au/acta-results/club-shoot-results-submission
Once you enter the information you can save it to your computer
and/or print it out in hard copy. Then just hit the send button.
This process will assist us in the office in compiling the Magazine
and getting results on the WEB quicker. Your cooperation in providing these electronic results will be greatly appreciated.
At this stage it will be progressive however those results sent via the
electronic medium will be given priority. By December 2010 the office
will phase out all hand written and faxed results.
We are also currently updating our data base with an expanded
capability being developed for the start of 2011 nominations in October
2010. It is envisaged nominations for National events will be available
on line as well as access to Secretaries of Clubs to access their members
registrations for renewal and updating. States will be able to access their
coaches and referees details as well as the State membership. This will be
strictly controlled via a login and password system similar to electronic
banking. We are working on many new concepts to make the volunteers
job easier and having a seamless change over that most members will
not be aware of.

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2010
Executive Officer’s
Report
The National Office is busy gearing up for the opening of the new
membership year which commences on the 1st of October. The
Secretary’s pack will be updated and sent during that time with
updated information provided in a number of areas. The cost of
membership remains the same as last year.
We are also currently putting together new ACTA Shooting
Rules Book which will reflect the changes made through the
Rules Committee and endorsed by the National Executive in
June 2010. These books will be ready for distribution later in
the year and will come into effect as at the 1st of January 2011.
In addition there will be new handicap books which will start to
be released to new and renewing members requiring a new book
from October.
The Association has already received a number of enquiries
regarding assistance with promotions in a number of areas.
These promotions mainly include field days, a popular place
for shooters to be found. We have “packs” which will provide
pamphlets, pens, key rings and banners etc to promote the sport.
If you wish to use these packs for promotional purposes please
contact the Association to book. We will send all of the gear out
for you prior to the event.
Clubs should have receive and filled out a survey of information
to be provided to our insurers to ensure coverage of as many
events as possible being conducted by Clubs. Currently we have
to advise the insurer of “Extra” events not associated with the
sport. We hope to be able to simplify this to cover the majority of
events, however we will be guided by the returns and negotiations
with the insurers.
The National Sporting Clays Championships have been
conducted with a disappointing field of less than 80 shooters.
Those who did attend were in contention for selection for
Australian selection for the World 5 Stand Sporting Clays
Championships being held in New Zealand in February 2011.
More details will be provided in next month’s magazine.
The National ground is struggling to handle the enormous
amount of rain we have received over the winter months. On the
plus side the ground is the greenest it has been in ten years. The
recent sealing of the roadway and car parking area has at least
allowed us to get out of the mud.
Many States are now gearing up for their Championships. With
many experiencing record or near record numbers last year it
will be interesting to see if the trend continues. With fine
weather and strong competition the State showpieces should
provide some excellent shooting. All the best to those volunteers
running the Championships and to the shooters attending.
Good luck
Tony Turner
Your National Championships Committee tabled its reports and
recommendations before the full National Executive meeting held
at our National Office in June and are now pleased to announce the
following amendments to our National championships. It was the
overall view that our 2010 championships were a resounding success
and that pre-nomination and squadding is the way forward in providing
a proficiently administered event. All National Championship dates and
programs for 2011 are now available for viewing on our website.
morning whilst the next day’s championship is underway. The National
Executive has approved the recommended 2011 program and that it
remain unchanged for 2012 and 2013.
Pre-Nominations and Pre-Squadding
The 2011 National Skeet Championship program will remain unchanged
from the 2010 championship and will be conducted from the 15th to
22nd May.
Entry into all our National Championships will be by pre-nomination,
each championship will have advertised maximum entries per event, and
nomination close off date. When pre-nomination close further entries may
be taken on the day only if maximum numbers have not reached. Entries
on the day will incur a $25 per event additional premium. Competitors
wishing to be squadded together in events may do so if their entries are
received as a group (this condition does not apply to ISSF events).
Maximum entries per events
Trap:
576 entries
Skeet:
160 entries
Sporting:
120 entries
ISSF Trap:
125 entries
ISSF Skeet:
No Limit
ISSF Double Trap:
No Limit
A Written application was received from the West Australian Clay Target
Association to hold the 2014 National Trap Championships in Perth,
which gained the full support of the National Executive.
National Skeet Championships
National ISSF Championships
The 2011 National ISSF Championships will be held at the West Australian Gun Club in Perth in January, the program will remain unchanged
from the 2010 championship. After discussions with Nick Sullivan the
CEO of AISL we are pleased to announce that all of the championships
in the National program now qualify for PQS scores this will allow our
members more opportunities for selection and also give our National
Championships more kudos.
National Sporting Championships
The 2011 National Sporting Championship will be held at the National
Grounds in August and the program will remain unchanged.
Reserve List
When entries have reached their respective maximum numbers as set
out above a further number of entries will be placed on a reserve list to
fill any withdrawals from the championship.
To assist our National Office with processing of nominations options
will be available on the nomination entry form to indicate when to
process their payment.
Option One: On receipt of the nomination form.
Option Two: Two weeks prior to the event.
This will hopefully ease the rush of entries received in the final days.
Full refunds will be given to all entries who wish to withdraw from the
championship when a minimum of 48 hours written notice is received
by our National Office prior to the event.
National Trap Championships
The 2011 National Trap Championships will be conducted from the 2nd
to the 9th of April over 16 competition layouts, with a further 2 layouts
for practice. The final shoot offs of each event will be conducted on
layout 5 (Beretta) and layout 6 (Casella). Every opportunity will be given
to finalise all events in daylight, for the Double Barrel championship this
event will be conducted over 50 targets which will allow the shoot off
to run for five hours, then if numbers permit the shoot off will recommence on the layout 5 (Beretta) and layout 6 (Casella) the following
PHOTO COMPETITION
Clubs/members can send Photo’s (Digital only) to the CTSN email
address. If space permits we will publish the best of these.
A picture will be selected every 3 months with the winner’s photo
being published in the CTSN with an article & receive a camera
for their Club.
The overall winner will receive a full page gloss colour advertisement in the magazine for a shoot event (to be used in the next
12 months)
* Each photo will need to be less than 6 months old.
* The photo will need to be picture-ready for publication in the
magazine (no touch-ups required).
* Must be of Clay Target shooting or related to a shooting event.
COOPERATION REQUIRED:
CTSN Content and Deadlines
The ACTA CTSN has grown substantially in 2010 with advertising
and editorial content as well as Club reports continuing to exceed
expectation.
A decision to only accept CTSN content via email or the web will
take effect as at the 20th October 2010. This includes Club results
sent to the National Office. These report templates can be accessed
through the ACTA web site www.claytarget.com.au or contact the
office and we will email you through the electronic version or you
can simply provide the report in WORD format via email.
We have to cater for everyone fairly and equally. There is a limit to
what we can do, if you leave your ads, reports or content until the
last minute there is every chance we may not be able to publish it.
Closing day does not mean we have finished our work at the office
in relation to the CTSN. Collating and sizing the ads, stories and
content is an arduous and complex task. Between Maureen and
Ironbark Graphics they achieve a great deal in a very short time
frame.
As well as performing other duties the staff at the National Office
have to compile all of this information and have it to the typesetter, have it set (including photos & touchups, amend ads where
necessary), proof read, make corrections where necessary and then
send to the printer. This then has to be sent to our Mailing House
for distribution.
Increasing the size or page extent of the magazine is ineffective
due to cost. We have strict weight guidelines for the magazine that
cannot be exceeded. The reason is that we are then thrust into the
next category of postage effectively doubling our postage costs.
If your ads, report, and shoot results are not in by the due date
they will not be published. Get you ads, report, and shoot results
in early to ensure you receive the coverage you want.
If every Club was only late once every 5 years, we would have
4 requests per month for special treatment. Not fair to other Clubs
nor our staff and contractors.

COMMONWEALTH
TRAP CARNIVAL
BREAKS DROUGHT
IN WA !
T
he Commonwealth Trap Carnival was held over
3 days 9th, 10th and 11th July at the magnificent
complex of the West Australian Gun Club. This
was a joint venture between the WA Gun Club
Inc. and the State Association, the WA Clay Target Association. It was an extremely well organised and run carnival
and sincere THANKS to all those wonderful and integral
people who had a “can do attitude” and made things
happen. Without this support and all the cooperation and
cohesiveness of working together such a great weekend
could not have happened.
This carnival will long be remembered as the “Carnival that broke the
drought here in WA.” If the farmers didn’t get rain by the weekend some
were facing financial hardship. So what better way to bring in the rain
by planning a major carnival and a free BBQ! So glad I never washed the
car! The farmers were seeing dollar signs with every clay target thrown.
The rainfall was unheard of with an extraordinary 95mm of rain being
recorded in the 3 days along with hail, windy wet conditions. It didn’t
take long for Whiteman Park to become a Lake and the ducks found
new homes!
Even thought the weather conditions were appalling, most competitors’ were keen to see how the most talked about and highly rated
Canterbury Traps performed under such dreadful conditions. I can
report back and say they were not disappointed. The traps were flawless albeit we did experience condensation issues with the referee
controllers. Taking this into account and the heavy non-stop rains we
got thorough what was a challenging weekend. The ladies in the office
came prepared and we found another use for their hair–dryer, which
not only dried off the score sheets but also doubled up as the drying
station for the controllers.
Having White Flyer targets being thrown from the Canterbury Traps
made a huge difference. The targets were very stable, consistent and
there was no shortage of ”soot balls” even in the wet conditions.

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2010
Whilst on the subject of the food, every morning Club members
Rocco Priolo together with Giovanni prepared the heartiest breakfast you
have ever had. Nobody went hungry and it was a great start to your day
being greeted by Rocco and Giovanni.
The Opening ceremony was held on Day 1 and opened by Mr Peter
Michan of the Department of Sport and Recreation. The ACTA was
represented by Mrs Elaine Forward and Mr Lynne Curtis and the Western
Australian Clay Target Association President Terry Marsden along with
the WA Gun Club President Robin Bailey welcomed everyone to Perth.
With the Trap carnival officially opened the first event got underway.
Event 1 was the 75 Target Champion of Champions proudly sponsored
by Winchester Australia and as the weather just kept getting worse the
event was re-name to the “75 Target Hurricane Hail Champion of Champions”. The Office staff couldn’t even see the shooters on the layouts
as the hail pelted down. All credit to those competitors who competed
in those conditions. The outright winner with a score of 122/125 was
local favourite Tony “Bulldog” Burnard from the “Amazing Dream Team”.
Congratulations to all the other winners from that event. 1st AA Grade
Gary Kelly 170/175, 2nd AA Grade Geoff Faulkes and 3rd AA Grade
Paul Finis. The A Grade division was won by Thaine Browning from Hobart Club 120/125, 2nd A Grade Phil House from Busellton119/125 and
3rd A Grade Denis Whitely from Mersey Tasmania117/125, 1st B Grade
Geraldton Junior Ashton Lemmon110/125, 2nd B Grade Keith Roy
Ch/Ch Tony Burnard
109/125, 3rd B Grade another Dream Team member Chris Smith
121/150 and 1st C Grade Peter Carley 106/125. 2nd C Grade Michael
Walker 109/150 3rd C Grade Ian Walker from Kojonup 121/150.
Event 2 was the Spartan Global Handicap and with the weather not
improving it was time to find the gum boots and wet weather gear and
brave the elements. Some shooters turned religious praying that the
rain would ease but the Farmers just kept seeing dollar signs in those
clay targets with every mm of rainfall!
Hobart shooter Thaine Browning came across to Perth to defend his
2009 Commonwealth Handicap Title and it got down to a shoot off with
fellow Tasmanian Dennis Whitely with Thaine achieving back to back
Titles with a score of 57/57 off 19 metres. By the end of the Carnival Thaine became a AA Grade shooter off 21 metres. 2nd place went
to Dennis Whitely off 21m, 3rd place was another Dream Team
Thaine Browning Handicap winner
Member Gary Smith, 4th Ian Grant, 5th PJ Forner, 6th Ashton Lemmon.
7th Arthur Pagett, 8th Gerard Maginess and 9th place winner was Steve
Sayer. All the winner were very pleased to receive so much cash as prizes
as shown by the smiles all around. Thaine as the overall winner received
a shotgun donated by Global Spartan.
With the end of Day one everyone went home to dry out and hope that
surely the weather must improve for day two of shooting with the main
events being the Single Barrel and Double Barrel events.
With the dark skies looming over Perth and the continuing rainfall day
two got underway with a hearty breakfast cooked by WA Gun Club
members Rocco and Giovanni with most sitting in front of the open
fireplace.
Event 3 was the Commonwealth Single Barrel. Our major sponsor for
the 3 days was Canterbury Trap International and a huge thank you
to the WA Agent Wayne Kuser who was on hand to
assist the WA Gun Club Trap maintenance team where
ever possible during the carnival. It was evident to all
competitors that there was a problem with the cordless voice release with the offending part being the
referee controller. This was exasperated due to the
torrential rain which somehow rain got inside the unit
causing problems and we all know that water and electronic components don’t mix. Even though there was
a problem it was a credit to all concerned in the way
they handled this situation and thanks to Canterbury
and Wayne Kuser
along with the maintenance team who
worked tirelessly getting it sorted the best
they could under such
extreme weather conditions. This information has been
discussed with Canterbury and is
being investigated. It must again be
said that the Canterbury Traps were
flawless and WA Gun Club now boasts
having a fleet of 8 Canterbury traps.
Now back to the Commonwealth
Single Barrel Championship and it
got down to a shoot off between
Jarrad Baker, Amaro Daluz and
Geoff Faulkes who all shot 50/50. It
was obvious that none of these
shooters wanted to stand in the ra
Jarrad Baker
in for a long time and after a rather
short shoot off the
Overall Champion of the Commonwealth Single Barrel
was WA Gun Club member Jarrad Baker with a score of
53/53. Carnarvon AA Grade shooter Amaro DaLuz came
in second wining AA Grade 56/58 with Geoff Faulkes in
2nd AA Grade 55/58. 3rd AA went to Geraldton member Gary Kelly. Other results were 1st A Grade Russell
Jaggard WA Gun Club, 2nd A Grade Hobart shooter
Thaine Browning and 3rd A Grade Matthew Waite from
Albany. The B Grade was won by Junior shooter Jayden
Vodden from Kalgoorlie and then is was “girl power”
with Denise Page 2nd B Grade and Deb Norrish 3rd
B Grade. C Grade 1st was Ian Watson from Kojonup,
2nd C Grade was Alan Cuthbertson and 3rd C Grade
Peter Carley both from WA Gun Club.
Sincere THANKS to Wayne Kuser representing Canterbury Trap International for presenting all the winners
with their prizes and Jarrad Baker with the Overall sash
and silver plate and medal.
The next event, the 50 Target Commonwealth Double Barrel Championship was the main event everyone was waiting for, again proudly
sponsored by Canterbury Trap International. By this stage nobody cared
about the weather conditions because there were 22 possibles shot after
the 50 targets. Great results under very testing conditions and a credit
to all those competitors who shot the possible.
Well 22 competitors went out and they were dropping out as fast as the
rainfall! One by one they sought refuge back in the clubhouse near
the warm cosy fire and then it got down to only 3 competitors. Tony
Papandnakis from Darwin, David Fox from Collie and Arthur Pagett
from Salmon Gums and there was no typical long shot off. Darwin AA
Grade shooter Tony Papandnkis won with a perfect score of 161/161. 1st
in AA Grade was David Fox 160/161 2nd AA Grade Brett Kuser 109/100
and 3rd AA Grade Jarrad Baker 106/107. Arthur Pagett who was in the

Albany, 2nd A Grade local WA Gun Club member Doug Berry 147/150
and 3rd A Grade Russell Jaggard. B Grade division was a surprise win
for Don Forward who was talked into entering this event by daughter
Tracy and with a score of 146/150 the smile was hard to wipe from Dons
face. Not bad for a B Grader! Good shooting. 2nd B grade was Dream
Team member Chris Smith 137/150 and 3rd place in B Grade was
Geraldton Junior Ashton Lemmon 136/150. The C Grade division
winners were 1st Ian Watson 129/150, 2nd Antionio Rechichi 129/153
and 3rd Peter Carley 126/153.
The last event for the Commonwealth Carnival was sponsored by
Winchester Australia who have been a long time supporter and sponsor of our sport. Sincere thanks to Winchester and Tim Steer for their
support and generous sponsorship.
Deb Norish 1st Lady, Jayden Voden 1st Junior and Tim Catling 1st Veteran
overall shootoff won A Grade out right with 160/161, 2nd A Grade
Jason Yozzi 3rd A Grade Dennis Whitely from Mersey Tasmania 101/102.
The B Grade section was won outright by Esperance shooter Keith Roy
50/50 then followed by a shootoff between the 2 juniors with Jayden
Vodden coming 2nd 98/99 and Ashton Lemmon in 3rd place 97/99.
What an excellent shoot off it was for these 2 young competitors. Well
done. The C Graders were 1st place Michael Walker and 2nd Alan Cuthbertson both WA Gun Club members and 3rd place went to Ian Watson
from Kojonup.
And that was the end of the Commonwealth Double Barrel Event all
wound up before darkness prevailed!
Day three of the Commonwealth Trap Carnival was here and to some
it was like Ground Hog day! Up first was the Pont Score Champion-
With the competition going so smoothly a break was called for lunch
and shooters took
advantage
of
the
little ray of sunshine
and got some Double
Rise practice in for the
last event. If you are
familiar with Murphy’s
Law then you guessed
right. Once the competition re-started the
Weather Gods opened
up the heavens and the
talk of the afternoon
was how on earth did
Lynne Curtis from
Frankston Gun Club
in Melbourne, in such
appalling weather conditions, shoot 49/50 to
be crowned the 2010
Commonwealth Double
Rise Champion? What WACTA State Secretary Denise Page & Lyne Curtis
a truly magnificent
effort. Not many shoot offs for this event and with the 1st AA Grader Bill
Sims and Dream Team member 46/50, 2nd AA Grader was you guessed
it David Fox 45/50 and 3rd AA Grader PJ Forner 63/64 who had to work
for his win against Geraldton shooter Gary Kelly.
The B Grade division had to be decided by a shoot off between Keith
Roy and Paul Murray winners with the final results being 1st Keith
Roy 43/60 and 2nd place Paul Murray who said that it looked like he
would have to give shooting away due to his health. But with a great
attitude and a recovery Paul is back shooting his sport that he enjoys
WACTA State President Terry Marsden and Jim Hamiliton O/A winner,

WANGARATTA CLAY TARGET CLUB
5 Stand Sporting Clays July Championship
Sunday 11 July attracted 38, 5 Stand Sporting Clays
enthusiasts to the Wangaratta Clay Target complex
to participate in this increasingly popular trap
discipline. It was terrific to see several junior and
lady shooters take part in this exciting and very
skilful sport.
The excellent amenities provided by the club offered shooters
some difficult targets and included some that are less challenging to connect with. The weather was cool but ideal
conditions prevailed all day, the club using orange top
targets which were ideal on the day. Many thanks to Colleen
Carmody, Layne Rowe and Michaela for their untiring efforts

effort goes into the setting up of the various traps for this discipline and dismantling everything at the conclusion of events,
but it is all worth it when you see the smiles on the shooters faces when
they are able to hit one of the more difficult angles presented.
Yarrawonga Field & Game champion Trevor Beach once again was too
hard to topple, taking out 1st AA & O/all champion shooting an impressive 90/110, with 2nd by junior shooter Stephen Penrose with another
excellent result of 80/100. Matt LePoidevin won 1st in A grade with
87/110, defeating Reg Carmody on 75/100. Anthony Pitt shot 80/100
to win B grade and 2nd by Gaye Shale on 79/100. Junior lady shooter,
Kacey Shale shot 59/100 winning C grade and 2nd by Brad Sparling on
57/100. Bradley’s results have improved dramatically of late, both in
skeet and 5 Stand disciplines – no doubt due to some excellent mentoring from other more experienced club members always willing to help
in a friendly way.
Best Junior on the day was top Down the Line shot Megan Grassi,
Best Lady, Gaye Shale 79/100 and Veterans award to Max Gribben on

On Sunday 25 July the Wangaratta Clay Target Club held
a 100 Tgt Skeet C/Ship event which attracted a dedicated
group of followers, with several travelling from Melbourne
to compete. The weather conditions were ideal and the club
presented good, consistent targets throughout the day.
As the main event finished off relatively early, the committee decided
to run a novelty cash divide event of 25 skeet doubles to round off
the day’s activities nicely. As a result, shooters had the opportunity
to shoot at 150 targets, and considering the time of year provided
an action filled day. Thanks to Margot and Kelly Robinson for their
expert duties handling the clubs canteen.
Gil Farish won overall & 1st in AA dropping only one target
in the main event ending with 99/100, 2nd was taken out by
David Jackel on 98/100. Fab Francione shot 92/100 to win 1st
in B grade, closely followed by local champ Kudri Demaj with
91/100. Demaj commented after the event that he has solved
the long term problem he has been having connecting with
the target from the low house on station 8 so watch out for
even better results next time from him. Phil Smith shot 92/100
to win 1st in B grade with his trusty 20 gauge and 2nd by
enthusiastic Benalla lady Alison Farish finishing on 89/100.
John Sutherland won C grade with a score of 91/108 and 2nd
by club president Albert Colin with 90/108.
The novelty event 1st place getter was shared by Fab Francione
and Colin Finn.

Psychological Skills
for Shooting
Michael Kruger-Davis
THE INNER GAME:
IT IS IMPORTANT
Back in 1999 I started writing these articles
for the CTSN. Initially, I was armed with an
extensive knowledge of psychology and had
been shooting most of my life and whilst I knew
a lot about psychology and lot about shooting, I quickly found that I needed
to learn about the psychology of shooting.
When I started to research “sport psychology” for shooters, I was directed to
The Inner Game of Golf by Tim Gallwey. Regular readers will know I found
this book fascinating as it seemed to explain what was happening when each
of us play the outer game of golf or shooting and the Inner Game of golf or
shooting.
Recently after a clinic I ran for the Southern Sports Academy golf squad
I received this email from one of the team:
“I bought the book “the inner game of golf” and I find that it is really improving my head game and teaching me skills I didn’t know there were.”
I recently received a CD from the Inner Game foundation in USA which was
a “conversation with Tim Gallwey” in which Tim talked about his books and
the philosophy behind the inner game. It is interesting to note that the Inner
Game Books were originally written in the seventies.
Shooting, like all sports, involves two games; the outer game and the inner
game. The outer game involves the sport itself; shooting the target. The outer
game involves physical fitness, well fitting gun, reliable ammunition, correct
stance and gun hold and all of the variables that are outside the shooter.
The inner game involves mental fitness and relies on the individual to
have trust in their own ability to do what is required. Inner game strategies
involve concentration, mental rehearsal, awareness, attention, relaxation,
goal setting, etc.
The problem with either trap or skeet shooting is that an error will usually
cost you the game or the match. There are rarely, second chances. In tennis,
you can be down forty - love and still win the game; one or two poor strokes
in Golf doesn’t put you out. However, depending on the day, 24/25 or 49/50
may not be good enough. If a person can do something as difficult and as
complicated as shoot a small moving object 49 times out of 50, then the
problem is not with their technique, equipment or ability. The problem is
most likely involves the inner game. We miss because we doubt our own
ability.
To understand self doubt it is necessary to look at how the brain functions.
Basically and for the purposes of this discussion, the brain is divided into
two halves; the right side and the left side. These different sides play an

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2010
important role in our ability to shoot, play golf, tennis, etc. The right side of
the brain is responsible for muscle movement and co-ordination. In shooting
this involves seeing the target, identifying it, tracking it, moving the body,
holding the gun correctly, pulling the trigger and following through. The
right side of the brain does and can continue to do these functions effortlessly
and continuously. All that it required is that the muscles need to be relaxed.
The left side of the brain however, houses our language, analytical
and judgemental skills. The left side also believes that our right side is
incapable of doing what is necessary and therefore provides it with a
barrage of instructions and “coaching tips” so that it can do it properly. In
his book, The Inner Game of Golf, Tim Gallwey identifies these two sides of
the brain as ego states and calls them Self 1 for the left side and self 2 for the
right side of the brain. Gallwey found that when he was involved in a competition he would have to continually listen to a range of self-instructional
thoughts. On closer analysis of these thoughts he determined that it was self
1 doing the talking, it thought he knew how to play and was supervising self
2, the one who had to hit the ball or hit the clay target in respect to shooting.
Self 1 did not only give self 2 instructions but criticised self 2 for past errors,
warned self 2 about probable future ones, and harangued him whenever
he makes a mistake. These instructions and judgements lead to an increase
in tension, which in turn tightens the muscles; the result, is that we are no
longer fluid or relaxed and therefore we cannot perform to our potential.
To summarise self 1 - the talking, thought producing self - is a lousy boss
when it comes to control the body’s muscle system. When self 2 - the body
itself - is allowed control, the quality of performance , the level of enjoyment and the rate of learning are all improved. Self 2 is the total human
organism, the natural entity. Self 1 does not have a physical existence; it is a
phenomenon of mental self-interference who can and does interfere with
our ability to perform.
For the brain to function closer to its potential the interference needs to minimised. This means that the basic premise of the inner game is; Performance
= Self 2 (potential) minus Self 1 (interference).The object of inner game is
to limit the interference of self 1 and trust in self 2 to perform and achieve.
Inner game techniques involve applying mental training skills that enable
the shooter to maintain concentration, optimise performance and achieve
results. These skills are not just the province of elite sportspeople; they can
be learnt, so we can increase our performance, enjoyment and fun involved
in competition.
Every time we compete, we make judgements as to our performance. When
we are winning, we enjoy the handshakes, pats on the back and as a result we
see ourselves and what we did as good. However, when we lose a competition
or miss a shot, it is just as easy for us to judge what we did as bad. This value
judgement of our performance has wide reaching implications. For example,
for a right handed shooter, missing a hard right hand swinger from lane five.
It is possible that self 1 will say something like: “.....you missed again, you
always miss those right hand swingers, your’e really no good at these.” If left
unchecked and you miss that shot again, self 1 will increase the criticisms and
begin to make it personal; for example, “...you missed it again. You’re just no
good at all.” We now see ourselves as the problem not just the fact that for
some reason or other we missed that target.
The first step to inner game success is to let go of the judgements. It is
important that we see our performance as simply that: how we performed
today. We must let go of the need to base our self image/esteem on what we
have achieved or what we think others will think about us as a result of our
performance.
The second step is to trust self 2’s ability and to stop trying. When we give
ourselves the instruction to try harder, what we are really doing is tensing
and tightening our muscles. In short; trying fails. Once we can let go of our
judgements and trust in self 2 we can go onto to quieting the mind.

HARASSMENT IN SPORT
Harassment in sport can serve to
drastically undermine the benefits of
involvement in clay target shooting.
The unfortunate reality is that clay
target shooting, as a sport, is not
immune from acts of discrimination,
harassment and abuse, rather the
contrary, sport provides an environment which in may cases lends itself to
conduct which is not only inappropriate, but also unlawful.
Depending on the nature of the case, instances
of harassment or abuse in sport can have
devastating effects for not only the individuals
involved, but also the sporting organisation itself.
Apart from exposing the club or association to
potential legal liability, officials may be faced
with low morale, an unpleasant environment,
higher turnover of volunteers and the prospect
of long-term damage to the organisation’s image
and reputation. These are all unnecessary harms
which the Australian Clay Target Association is
anxious to avoid.
All Clubs are required to abide by the Australian Clay Target Association Member
Protection By-Law which reflects to serving
and protect its members and participants
throughout all levels of the sport. However,
the adoption of the Member Protection
By-Law itself is just the first step in affording
our members and participants the protection
they deserve. The successful implementation
and enforcement of this Member Protection
By-Law requires the cooperation and commitment of the Australian Clay Target Association
members and participants at all levels.
What is Harassment
Abuse is a form of harassment and includes:
— Physical abuse (eg. assault)
— Emotional abuse (eg. blackmail, repeated
requests or demands)
— Neglect (eg. failure to provide the basic
physical and emotional necessities of life)
— Abuse of power which the harasser holds
over the harassed (eg.coach-player or
manager-player relationship)
Discrimination
Discrimination is treating or proposing to treat
a person less favourably than someone else in
certain areas of public life on the basis of an
attribute or personal characteristic they have.
Attributes and characteristics include:
Age, disability, marital status, parental,
physical features, political belief/activity,
pregnancy, race, religious belief/activity, sex
or gender, sexual orientation.
All Clubs, Zones and States should appoint
a Member Protection Information Officer
(MPIO) All State Sport and Recreation departments offer training. This is not an onerous
task.
What is the role of the MPIO?
The MPIO is there to support the person
making the complaint and suggest how to best
solve the situation. IT IS NOT THE ROLE OF
THE MPIO to investigate. The MPIO should
listen to the complaint and make suggestions
on who to approach and how, also to assist the
person to find the appropriate avenue for this
process.
To prevent these destructive and harmful
outcomes from occurring, your club needs
to implement and maintain practices and
procedures which:
— Protect your club’s members – including athletes, administrators, coaches and
officials - physically and emotionally from
harassment
— Endeavour to get the right people involved
in your organisation ie good recruitment
— Protect your member’s personal information.
Member protection is also about effective risk
management of two of the biggest risks to
your club – losing participants and harming
members.
The benefits of this approach are:
— it is an effective deterrent to harassment
— it promotes awareness of appropriate
behaviour
— it ensures that complaints can be dealt
with quickly, responsible and effectively
— it is often a requirement of funding organisations
— it promotes compliance with the law.
Benefits:
— member protection information officer
would ensure your club handled complaints in an appropriate and consistent
manner. They do not investigate complaints
but help the person with the concern to
deal with what has happened.
— Appointing someone in the role who
is approachable, accessible and able to
maintain confidentiality ensures people
in your club have someone supportive to
go to with their concerns and to access
information.
SHOALHAVEN SHOOTS FOR CHARITY
Woolworths Stockland Nowra and the Shoalhaven Clay Target Club got together to hold a charity shoot at the S.C.T.C
grounds. This event was to raise funds for the Children’s Ward at Shoalhaven Hospital. Club members were on hand to supervise each shooter and to help with the concept of how to actually hit a clay target. The weather was perfect and everyone had
great time, with a couple of people showing quite a bit of potential.
Shooters and supporters on the day
I have heard through the grapevine that
some have already been into Shoalhaven
Shooting Supplies to check out the products
on offer.
The Club had on offer a couple of trophies up
for grabs on the day for the most improved
and the best on the day. Alex Kotevfki won
the best overall and after a very entertaining shoot off Luke Piepenborn won the most
improved. Congratulations to them both.
Thank you to Craig Scott, Manger of
Woolworths Stockland for his help and
support and to the members of the S.C.T.C
for giving up their time to make this a
wonderful day.

Sunday morning began with cold
& overcast conditions that failed
to dampen the enthusiasm &
comradre that was evident around
the grounds.
First up was the WA Auto Electrics
25 DB Championship. Once again
there were several possible on the

Russell Day winner WA Auto Electrics DB CS with sponsor Richard Whitely
The last event was the Tim &
Joan Larcombe 30 target Medley
Championship.
There was plenty of interest in
this event as High Guns depended
on the results and none more so
than the overall High Gun with
Royce Normington leading Tim
Blakeney by one point. Blakeney
rose to the challenge & shot a
50/50 and went on to brilliantly
win the medley shoot off with
150/150 from Mark Normington

July Shoot Popular
at Mathoura
Jayden Vodden Junior HG
The Mathoura Gun Club Inc committee were very
pleased to see five full squads of shooters arrive to
compete at their July 2010 shoot, a marked contrast to
the June event, where, because of widespread almost
torrential rain, only a handful of shooters arrived, and
on discussing the situation the committee decided to
cancel that shoot.
Shooting clay targets under lights is a little more difficult than day
competition, and some shooters just put it in the too hard basket,
or having tried and been unsuccessful do not attend night shoots,
so for five full squads to attend a small club is really a very good
roll up. A carry over of the main event from the June shoot may
have helped lure some.
Euroa, Bendigo,
Deniliquin, Echuca
and Moama were
areas most arrived
from and starting
with a 10 target
Double Barrel
Cash Divide;
three shooters
managed all ten,
Peter Wilkie,
Leigh Knight
(Bendigo) and
John Berryman
(Echuca), all
shared the cash.
Tim Catling Veteran HG
High Gun sash & nugget was won
by another Eastern Goldfields
member in Jayden Vodden and it
was great to see him back in top
form. Local prospector & club
member Bernie Mazza was the
junior sponsor and also sponsored
the veteran High Gun which was
keenly contested and eventually
went to clay target shooting legend
Tim Catling from Katanning. The
Arthur Pagett sponsored graded
High Guns were also keenly contested with Royce Normington the
AA winner, A grade winner was
Paul Michie, B grade winner was
Bernie Mazza, C grade winner was
Michael Walker.
The weekend concluded with a
magnificent meal including a
pig on a spit (proudly presented
by Shane Nayda), fish on the
Webbers (Tim Larcombe), and
beef, salads & veges by Sue Rowle
and ladies who did the club proud
with the weekend’s catering.

Event Two,
a 25 target
Points Score
Championship, and with no shoot off required Euroa member
Laurie Fitzpatrick losing only three points collected the Overall
Winners Sash and 1st in A grade trophy with his excellent 72/75
result, Echuca’s John Berryman shooting an 67/75 collected 1st in
B grade, and Deniliquin member Rod Wharton shot an 61/75 to
give him a 1st in C grade trophy.
The third event was the carried over June event, which was, a 25
target Handicap, and although no one could manage to hit all 25
targets three shooters ended on a very credible 23/25. Shooting off
to decide the winner, Rod Wharton
was first out collecting 3rd place on
a 25/28 score, next out was Laurie
Fitzpatrick taking out 2nd place
with his 28/31 score, and that left
Drew Healey, an Echuca member,
sitting high on his result of 29/31,
earning him the Overall Winners
Sash for his very good shooting.
Although it was a big night getting
all those shooters through, everything ran very smoothly, and even
the presentations were over before
midnight.

VA L E
ROY HOLTFRETER
(The Sheriff)
In almost any organisation you
care to mention, you will find
some person is the driving force
that makes the enterprise successful, Roy was such a person.
The Holtfreter family arrived in
Northam in 1945 and established
Holtfreter Engineers. There was
Roy’s father, Max and his two
brothers, Denny & Brian. The
business subsequently became one
of the largest employers in Northam
and a most successful enterprise.
Little wonder then that the organisations that Roy became involved
in, felt the benefit of his ability;
such as the town’s football club
Roy in 1991
(Secretary for four years), foundation member of the Northam trotting club, foundation member of the
Northam rodeo committee and member for seventeen years.
1n 1952 Roy became interested in clay target shooting, which turned out
to be very fortunate for the sport, not only in Northam, but in Western
Australia and Nationally. In 1953 he convened a meeting to form the
Northam & Districts Gun Club and has been a committee member since
its inception and president for five years.
At a meeting in Geraldton in 1955 he assisted with the formation of
the West Australian Clay Target Association and was the Northam
club’s delegate to that Association till 1992 and it’s president from 1965
to 1968. 1979 saw him elected as the West Australian delegate to the
Australian Clay Target Association and then to its management
committee. Then in 1981 was elected vice president and president in
1984 a position he held till 1988.
Life membership was bestowed on him by the Northam Clay Target Club
and the West Australian Clay Target Association in 1979 and in 1982 the
Australian Clay Target Association also made him a life member.
Perhaps the greatest honour he received was in 1988 when the
Australian Clay Target Association awarded him the presidential medal
in recognition of his contributions over the years to the sport.
In 1991 Perth was selected to run the World Trap & Skeet Championships, Roy was elected chairman of the organising committee.
1980 he was manager of the WA team at the Sultan of Jahore’s birthday
championships, held in Malaysia, 1985 manager of the Australian skeet
team to San Antonio Championships in Texas U.S.A.
Other position he held were Australian Handicapper 1979/81, Australian Rules Supervisor 1982/85, WA Referee Examiner, Westralian
Sports Person of the Year (Clay Target Shooting) 1991, Northam Sports
Star (Senior)of the Year 1986, The Fred Killick community Service Award
1991 & nominee 2000, elected first life member of the Northam Club Inc
(Est 1901) in 2003.
While all this was going on, one could be excused for wondering how
he found time to compete, somehow he did, and there would be no
doubt in the minds of the other competitors that Roy was in the event
he would be hard to beat, especially if there was a shoot off.
To list all the events Roy won would be difficult indeed, however it can
be said with reasonable accuracy that around Australia he won: 34 Club
Championships, 31 District or Zone Championships, 17 State Championships, 7 Commonwealth Championships, 6 National Championships,
4 Field Championships. In addition to these he qualified for the Australian Trap team 3 times, Australian Skeet once, State Trap team
21 times, State Skeet team 13 times & State ISU Skeet team once.
The Sherriff: How Roy came to be affectionately called The Sherriff
is somewhat of a mystery, but somehow it seemed to fit, and when
problems arose, as they often did, either at events or meetings, The
Sheriff was always there to help get things back on track.
To be extremely competitive and at the same time be a true sportsman
is not always easy, but Roy fulfilled both these attributes, and was never
heard to find excuses when beaten, sometimes he would say “I just didn’t
shoot good enough” and was always the first to congratulate the winner.
Roy will be remembered for many years in the shooting fraternity for his
honesty, sense of fair play, sportsmanship and his capacity for sheer hard
work, and not the least, when shooting was over his fellowship.
We will miss The Sheriff.

Canberra International Five Stand
Three squads of shooters were greeted by a seemingly early
Spring morning, however, as the day wore on the wind swung
to the south
and the cold
wind came
straight off the
Snowies.
While the course
this month had
a wide range
of targets, the
range was set to
encourage the
newer shooters
with targets which
were challenging
but not seemingly
impossible to hit.

Our Coordinators broke with
AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2010
tradition and offset the shooting stands to
one side to further vary the crossing targets.
In addition to our local members, shooters
from Cooma also attended and it was
pleasing to see a few new faces trying out
this increasingly popular discipline. Results
were as follows: OA/A Grade Rodney
Kniepp 93/100, 2nd Simon Weeding 92,
B Grade John Taylor 71, C Grade Marg
Warriner 38.
Since we have regularly started shooting
Five Stand competition, we have only had
2 clean rounds which were shot during this
event, and our congratulations go to Simon
Weeding and Rodney Kniepp.
B Grade Winner John Taylor
Our thanks go to Terry Forest who kept up
the hot food to us throughout the day and to all the people who pushed
the buttons and helped pull down the range. Additionally we would like to
thank member Dave McCarthy who built and delivered to the grounds five
new shooting stands.

Shooters’ Views
What is our future???
This year I have been to the ISSF Nationals Brisbane, the World
FITASC Championships at Lang Lang, the Trap Natioals and the Skeet
Nationals at Wagga and coming up the ACTA National 5 Stand at
Wagga, SSAA National 5 Stand at Wodonga and then the National
Field and Game at Kingston SA, FITASC Nationals in WA. Wow how
many different forms of clay target shooting we have to choose from.
Our ACTA junior numbers are low, some clubs do not have a single
junior member, we are not going the right way as far as our future in
clay target shooting is concerned. But the juniors are out there that is
the good news, I believe the fact there is a choice now in what form
of clay target activity a shooter can attend the deciding factor more
than ever is “how much fun is it and what will it cost me to do it”.
Add to this a wife or husband and one or more “junior shooters” the
answer is very easy for most people. Now the problem is this, I would
not like to know where we all might be now if Michael and Russell
did not win their Gold Medals when they did??? The sporting world
Writers must state their membership number, full name
and address. Where possible, letters should be typed. The
ACTA reserves the right to edit any letter. The ACTA does not
necessarily endorse the opinion of our correspondents.
survives around Gold Medals, our sport more than ever has to keep
producing Olympic Medals, sorry to say this but National Trap, Field
and Game or any one of the other forms of clay target shooting will
not replace the Olympic medal as a help in securing our future. What
am I getting to is we need a BIG increase in young shooters now in
our sport. Is it already too late, I hope not but there is a 15 year gap
in our ISSF shooters now. But in saying that I know from my travels
this year the shooters that would fill that gap are out there now but
not shooting ACTA events. The time is now to bring ALL clay target
shooters together as one body but still with their own association eg
one membership cost, all associations cost the same to join but you
only need to join one and you can compete in all the others, one card
with ALL disciplines recorded in it, this would allow every shooter in
any discipline the opportunity to experience all forms of clay target
shooting having fun and with affordable cost. Big changes are needed
now or we will be in history books as a sport once played.

TERRIFIC WEEKEND AT COWRA
Last weekend saw Cowra Gun Club host the annual Cowra
Gold Cup. The highly successful clay target shooting
event was supported by over 100 competitors each day
from across NSW. Both mornings started out very crisp
with large frosts but these soon disappeared and beautiful winter days followed.
In the MineBiz Points Score Cash Divide five shooters scored a
possible 75/75. This event was followed by the Cowra Diesel Service

over 150 additional targets was Matt Schiller from Young. Matt is a
junior competitor and he defeated more experienced shooters with
a very fine score of 252/252. Great work Matt. The Club would like
to take this opportunity to thank Johann from Vera Jewellery Cowra
who handcrafted and donated the Gold Cup badge. Other competitors to perform well were Nick Xenos who won AA Grade with
251/252, Neville Teale took out A Grade 124/125, Anthony Bartolo,

FUTURE DIRECTION OF
THE SUNSHINE COAST
CLAY TARGET CLUB INC
The Sunshine Coast Clay Target Club Inc. is still
looking for land to build a Clay Target Complex on,
for the Sunshine Coast members and all shooters.
The Club held its Annual General meeting on the 17th August
2010 and a new committee was elected to take the club forward
into the future.
President: Quinto Porfiri, Vice President: Scott Trafford, Secretary: Gordon Watson, Treasurer: Jim Trafford. Committee
Members Grant Mason, Graham Noffke, Dillon Noffke, Peter
McAndrew and Rhett Trafford. Patron: Mark McArdle MP
Member for Caloundra.
The Sunshine Coast Clay Target Club members have travelled
to the Caboolture Clay Target Clubs grounds for the last three
years for its club shoots. This was successful in the short term,
but gradually the club members have lost interest in travelling
and the shooter numbers have fallen. The club fellowship is
non existent. Club practice days have ceased due to the distance
members have to travel. Training of juniors and the school
students are a thing of the past.
The new committee accepts the challenge to keep the club viable
and find new grounds for the club members, it will not happen
over night. The committee is still negotiating with our Local
Council and State Government for suitable land.
The committee passed a resolution to have the final club shoot
in September at the Caboolture Clay Target Club and then hold
a yearly two day shoot in its district to keep the club operational
until suitable land is located. The club will operate as usual,
receiving membership and club dues for its members on the
Sunshine Coast. The Club will retain its affiliated shoot day
(the Third Sunday of each month) and hold committee meetings
to attend correspondence and general running of the club.
The Sunshine Coast Clay Target Club would like to thank the
Caboolture Clay Target Club for their generous assistance to our
club in its transition period by allowing our club to hire their
complex over the past three years for our club shoots. “Thank
You” Caboolture.

TRELOAR CELEBRATES
ANNIVERSARY
To celebrate the second anniversary of the club in August,
shooters were treated to a festive lunch of roast chicken,
vegetables, cauliflower au gratin and gravy, cooked to perfection by a friend of the club, Ron Fuller from Gunnedah.
Winter has been kind to our club with mild, sunny days after frost. The
grounds and surroundings are lush following abundant rain and the green
and gold of the flowering canola crops provides a striking background for
the flying targets.
Event 1 25 target DB Cash Divide: A grade Sam Gall & Rod Riley 25/25, B grade
Anthony Wason 24/25, C grade Mike Donoghue & Neal Davison 22/25. Event 2
30 SB Trophy: A grade Rod Riley 43/50, B grade Cathy Riley 47/50, C grade Neal
Davison 39/50. Event 3 30 target Handicap Trophy: 1st Mike Donoghue 29/30, 2nd
Anthony Wason 47/50, 3rd Murray Riley 46/50, 4th Sam Gall 37/41. Overall High
Gun Medal was proudly won by Sam Gall with 110/120.
All is in readiness for the Kookaburra Classic Open Shoot 11/12 September. Eye catching green and gold road signs have been erected between
Tamarang and Red Bob’s along Wandobah Road to direct shooters. All
members are very proud of their club and look forward to welcoming
visitors attending the Classic. An RSVP would be appreciated if you will be
attending to assist with catering.
The club acknowledged the sudden passing on 31 July of The Hon
Roy Smith MLC, of the Shooters and Fishers Party. Mr Robert Borsak,
President of the Party and Chairman of the NSW Game Council has been
nominated to fill the casual vacancy. We look forward to meeting Mr Borsak
as he addresses issues of Firearms legislation and reform the late Roy Smith
had been pursuing. We are assured by the Hon Robert Brown MLC that the
party will keep pushing for a fairer deal for firearm owners.

NORTH EAST ZONE
Victorian
North East
Zone held
their Elimination School
Persons
Championship shoot on
Thursday the
12th of August
at the Echuca
Clay Target
Club grounds,
and luckily
OA winner
Rhys Eeles
although
there was rain
either side of Thursday, it held off for
the shoot. Certainly no one could brag
about the weather, it being bitterly cold
with strong gusty wind, making the
shooting of clay targets in single barrel
discipline extremely difficult, but the
alternative of rain would have been far
worse. A very pleasing attendance of
177 boys and girls, attempting to shoot
their way through to the finals held in
Bendigo on the 6th of September.
A large number of schools had students
competing, 23 in total, and even though the
weather was not conductive to good scores,
competition was fierce, with four students
managing to only drop two targets out of
twenty. Emma Cox (Notre Dame College
Shepparton), Rhys Eeles (Rochester
Secondary College), Kurt Northausen
(Kyabram Secondary College), and Jake
Ischovits (Mansfield Secondary College). All
four shot off to decide an overall winner.
Being only single barrel shooting, the shoot
off’s are run best of five targets, continuing
in brackets of five until there is a winner. In
Winning team, Mansfield

this case the Overall Winner turned out to
be master, “Rhys Eeles” scoring an excellent
28/30 to collect his Sash. Congratulations to
Rhys, and the Rochester Sec College!
There were other shoot offs’ to determine the
results which came out this way, Senior Girls,

Team scores are added together to decide a
winning school to enter the final, and the
best school team scores on the day were from
Mansfield Secondary College.
A very successful shoot, running smoothly,
and finishing early. Thanks must go to
Winchester Australia, represented on the day
by Mr Daniel Johnston, for their sponsorship, the schools, and all the helpers from
the Echuca and Mathoura clubs and the NEZ
secretary Mrs Chris Beard, who together kept
the shoot rolling in such an efficient manner.
Thanks also to the ladies for food and drink.

that helped during the day in assisting Graham to make this day run
smoothly.
There were 18 zone members attending from Port Macquarie, Boggabri
Gunnedah and Kempsey clubs. The group was made up of junior and
open shooters but was restricted to C graders only.
Graham opened the day with a short talk and following that all participants went to the pattern board to see exactly where their guns were
patterning.
Following this they were put into squads and went to the traps to shoot
some targets while Graham cast his eye over each of them giving advice
and tips on what might help them achieve more broken targets.
The day concluded with a small single barrel competition that was won
by junior shooter Beau Powick.

Port Macquarie Clay Target Club
Port Macquarie Clay Target Club held their seventh annual
two day carnival on July 31st and August 1st.
The club had over $5000 worth of cash, shells and medals spread over
four events and at the close of nominations there were just over fifty
competitors on the Saturday and Sunday.
The weather forecasters did not help with the nominations and Saturday
morning saw light rain falling but cleared before the end of the first
event to a warm and dry day.
The club this year was able to open a third trap layout with assistance
from the Hastings Valley Hunting Club and all shooters were impressed
with the outlook as well as the layout.
ACTA clubs represented were Cecil Park, Cessnock, Grafton, Kempsey,
New South Wales, Taree –Wingham, Richmond River, Newcastle Lake
Macquarie, Camel Hill, Boggabri Gunnedah, Warren, Narromine,
Tamworth, Coffs Harbour, Treloar and of cause Port Macquarie.

The first event on the Saturday was the SJ and CM Wallis Plumbers 30
target Points Score shot off 15 metres. After the eleven squad sheets were
checked Port Macquarie AA grader Robert Clarke took the overall win
and the Championship Medal with the score of 88/90.
First in AA grade went to Hank MacInnes 87/90, 2nd Brad Hooper
89/93, in A grade 1st Paul Deland 88/93, 2nd Gary Joass 87/93. The B

grade 1st Ben Tyson 80/90, 2nd Michael Carter 69/90.
The second event was 30 targets Handicap sponsored by DC Pearson
Chartered Accountants and Bob Ellison. At the end of competition there
were three possibles all B graders shooting off 17 metres. Peter Brenton,
Scott Anshaw and Craig Norman went to trap 2 for the shoot off with
Anshaw out on his first target 30/31, Brenton 37/38 missed his eighth
thereby giving Coffs Harbour member Craig Norman 38/38 first place
overall and the Championship Medal. With six shooters on 29/30 a
shoot off was needed for the last two placegetters and at the end Rob
Marko took fourth place 45/46 and Paul Deland fifth on 44/46.
The last event for the day was the Port Batteries 15 pair Double Rise. As
we all know the results in this event can and probably would affect the
outcome of the High Gun awards at the end of competition.
The overall winner was Cesar Diaz from the Newcastle Lake Macquarie
club following a shoot off with Port member Steve Wallis. Cesar shot
33/40 and he took the Championship Medal and the cash prize.
After all squad sheets were checked there was only one possible shot.
Grafton member Tony Ryder took overall first place in the Hastings 100
and the Championship Medal with a score of 100/100.

Six Events at Echuca
E
CHUCA CLAY TARGET CLUB held its August 2010
shoot on Sunday the 8th and although the weather was
excellent for shooting, and a good variety of programs on
offer, the expected large roll up of competitors did not eventuate. Although the committee was slightly disappointed, it
was still a reasonably good attendance, and the entire shoot
ran smoothly all day with some excellent scores recorded in
all events.
The Double Barrel Championship, in particular,
started off with two full
squads of shooters in the
shoot off, all with full
scores, and continuing
on until there was just
two Echuca members still
going, Craig Fitzgerald
and Rob Viney, and when
they had both shot target
180, and daylight was
starting to lower, they
both decided to share
the honour of Overall

result, Echuca members Ian Phillips and Conrad Robb picked up 1st
and 2nd in A grade, Ian on a 59/60, and Conrad on 58/60. B grade
1st was Joanne Boyer (Castlemaine) 54/60, B 2nd was Villya Vogelzang (Mansfield) 52/60, C grade 1st Barry Rogers on 44/60 with Hugh
Nihill scoring 40/60 to collect 2nd in C, both these shooters are Echuca
members.
A 20 target Single Barrel graded cash divide was the 2nd event for the
day, and R Viney, S Atkins, C Fletcher (Cohuna), and Trevor Hicks
(Num/Shepp) were the money collectors in AA grade, all on a 20/20
score. Gordon Fletcher (Cohuna) and I Phillips grabbed the cash in
A grade, both on 18/20, J Boyer and J Berryman picked up the cash in
B grade both on an 18/20 result, and Kim Moroni a Bendigo member
collected all the C grade cash, Kim shooting a 17/20 score.
A 20 target Handicap was next on the list and at the end of an eleven
target shoot off, Colbinabbin member, Geoff Palmer came out victorious, collecting 1st place with his 31/31 result, Echuca member Rhys
Eeles the last to drop out of the shoot off taking 2nd prize with his score
of 30/31, Casey Fletcher picking up third place with a 27/28 result.
A new addition to Echuca’s shoot program is called the “Club
Mug” where the grades of shooters determine the meterage they
start shooting on, initially shooting ten targets double barrel and if
successful then working their way back to end up shooting off the
25 meter mark, until a lone shooter stands, and wins the pool of cash
in the kitty. On this day Cohuna member Casey Fletcher ended up
shooting a 22/22 score to collect a handy $80 prize.
A grade in the Double Barrel went to club president Ron Traill
24/25, B grade was won by John Berryman also posting a big score of
117/118, and finally C grade was collected by Hugh Nihill on a 17/20
result, all winners in this event were Echuca club members.
The first event for the day was a Points Score Championship, and
Echuca member Leigh Fitzgerald claimed the Overall Winners Sash,
and 1st in AA grade with an unbeaten full score of 60/60, after a
short shoot off Craig Fitzgerald claimed 2nd in AA with an 80/81

Throughout the day Skeet
shooting was available to
whoever wished to try their
skill, and even with the large
program that was run on the
day, all events, and even the
presentations, was all over
by 6.00pm. A very pleasing
thing happening in the
sport of clay target shooting
is the number of junior girls
and ladies competing in the
sport now, and being very
successful.

Port Macquarie 2 Day Carnival
Continued from page 59
At the end of the day the last item was to work out the High Gun winners
from the two days. The overall High Gun winner was Tony Ryder with

Major shoot at new Bundaberg range
B
UNDABERG CLAY TARGET CLUB held its annual
shoot on Sunday 1st August with 63 shooters vying for
the cash & cartridges in light wind conditions. This was
their first major shoot at the new range. An excellent roll
up of shooters travelled from Sunshine Coast, Gladstone,
Rockhampton, Maryborough, Gympie, Tarawera Pistol
& Gun Club, Central Burnett, Brisbane, Redcliffe,
Barcaldine, St James (Vic), and Bundaberg. It was pleasing
to see a good roll up of our own shooters attend.
The day progressed really well with no
interruptions or breakdowns. It is always
good to finish the day reasonability early
letting the travelling shooters get on the
road before dark. The day produced good
targets with some wind but not too bad
and no arguments. Good day was had
by all.

The Squire reports from West Wyalong
It was a great winter’s morning and four squads turned out
for the West Wyalong Clay Targets Club July shoot.
Dozer had everything under control with the computer in the office
and the day began promptly with a 10 Target Handicap Eye Opener
and seven shooters, including club members, Wayne Ambrose, Dozer
Collins, Mat Patmore and father and son Don and James Turner shot
the perfect score.
It was good to see Wayne Ambrose back at the traps, he is obviously
recuperating from his serious injuries and enjoying his shooting again.
However, Luke Ellison, Clive Foster and Mat Patmore all shot 117/120
to share AA Grade. Steve Schiller 113/120 won A Grade from a late
starting Gram Duncan 111/120. Narelle Ambrose is shooting very well
and scored 101/120 to win B Grade from Allan Schirmer 100/120. James
Turner is also shooting well and won C grade with his score of 104/120
from Allan Lewis.
With the slick organisation and cooperation from shooters there was
still plenty of time at the completion of the scheduled program and it
was decided to run a 50 Target Double Rise Cash Divide scratch event
for those who did not have a home to go to.
It was Narelle Ambrose, however, who proved to be the best handicap
shot on the day with 32/33 in the 30 Target Handicap event. Narelle on
18 metres accounted for Steve Schiller on 19 metres with his score of
31/33 and Wayne Ambrose from 20 metres who scored 35/38 to place
third.
This group made up two squads who shot the event with Mat Patmore
scooping the pool with a very good score of 49/50. Dozer Collins, who
had been very unhappy with his performance in the previous double rise
event scored 46/50 and take second money.
The 80 Target Medley comprising 20 Targets Double Barrel, 20 Targets
Single Barrel, 20 Targets Points Score and 10 Pair Double Rise certainly
tested the shooters’ skills and even the top shots at the shoot were unable
to shoot the event clean.
It was a really good shoot made easy to organise because of the readiness
of club members and visitors to cheerfully help out with the refereeing,
scoring and the myriad of tasks that go towards running a successful
shoot.
Mat Schiller was High Gun over the advertised program with 155/160.

RICHMOND RIVER CLUB NEWS
T
HE END OF AN ERA occurred
at Richmond River Gun Club on
Saturday, 14th August 2010 when
Peter Brown, who has served the
club with diligence and dedication
in the position of Secretary since
1987 decided not to stand again.
Peter started clay target shooting in 1982
at the age of 35 and quickly became one of
the club’s best shots. He has represented
the Northern Zone and won numerous
championships both at home and away.
Business pressures and a desire to do
some travelling meant that Peter would
not be able to devote as much time to
Club administration as is necessary
so he made the decision to step aside
this year.
At the club’s Annual General Meeting
held on Saturday, President Mike
Sullivan paid tribute to the oustanding contribution made by Peter over
the years, particularly through the
club’s tough times and that sentiment
was expressed by all present through
acclamation.

[email protected].
Don Johnson (17M) Peter Brown (19M),
Ray White (21), and Kim Nealon (25M) had
dropped only one target each and headed back
to the layout to shoot off for the minors with
Don securing 2nd after just two extra targets,
and Ray third shooting 37/39.
Mike Sullivan was re-elected as President. Mark
Formaggin and Phil Westbury were returned
as Vice Presidents and Rhonda Jacobsen is
Treasurer. Warren Beddoes and Dick Powell
are new committeemen alongside the experienced Geoff Pringle and Peter Brown.
Brownie must have wished Kim Nealon had
either stayed home or gone somewhere else
after another shoot off won by Kim for the
daily High Gun. Mike Sullivan took home his
first gold rimmed tankard as Intermediate
High Gun.
Champion of Champions
On a dull cloudy day, with the threat of
showers ever present, 37 shooters lined up for
the “Champion of Champions” – a 75 target
ion of Champions
Kim Nealon 2010 Champ
event shot from 18 metres, and then a 25T
Handicap but not a lot of red ink was used
on the board.
Ian McDonald shot 25/25 in the Double Barrel
Stage and Jim Cornwell managed a possible
from 21 metres to secure the fat end of the
prize-pool in the Handicap.
Kim Nealon was overall winner of the
“Champion of Champions” with 143/150
from Peter Brown(140/150) following a shoot
off after both recorded 119/125 in the event.
Ian McDonald, AA Grade winner
62
As previously stated, Jim Cornwell shot 25/25
off 21 metres to clean up in the handicap. No
one had given Jim a chance after his unprintable score in the single barrel leg of the
medley but the smell of cash did wonders for
rejuven–ating his concentration after lunch
(or maybe it was the lunch?).
Grade winners were AA Ian McDonald

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2010
By the time this issue of CTSN is read, the
next shoot at Richmond River will see the
resumption of Night Shoots on Friday, 10th
September with a 75T Medley.
Warren Beddoes has indicated that the snapper
have been biting off Evans Head and he will
be providing a sumptuous feed of fish and
chips for those who attend. Numbers attending night shoots had declined somewhat last
season so hopefully those that have not been
shooting regularly will dust off the shooting
jacket, wipe the grease out of the barrels and
come along.
The 2010 Continental Championship will be
held on Sunday 26th September commencing
at 10 a.m.
More information about Richmond River and
the other clubs in the northern rivers area can
be found at www.northernriversgunclubs.com.
Albury Wodonga CTC
July
had cleverly been downgraded
to C Grade in the final event
after winning second place in
B Grade in both the previous
events! Not content to simply
place again, Alex posted a 36/37
to be clear winner of C Grade.
Whether a result of good luck,
bad luck or a careful word in
the handicapper’s ear, everyone
was truly amused. Well done
Alex! Craig Hamilton secured
2nd in C Grade in a much more
conventional way with a 33/34.
Albury Wodonga Clay Target Club’s
July program had provided enough
interest to encourage 42 keen shooters
to nominate on the day, some coming
from the far ends of the state to sample
the fine competition at Albury!
While the loyal brigade of Albury Wodonga
locals contributed admirably to the attendance figure, it was extremely pleasing to
see such a high level of visiting shooters.
Members from Downside, Bega, Mildura,
Wangaratta, Mansfield, Yarrawonga,
Corowa, Benalla and Mt. Bogong were
all represented on the scoreboard – some
featured heavily on the presentation list!
Event 1 for the day was a 10 target Single
Barrel cash divide. After many shooters
opted to don wet weather apparel, Mother
Nature “held off”, allowing the competition
to proceed with all but the smallest breeze.
Unfortunately, this reprieve was only able
to assist 4 shooters to complete the first
event with a perfect score. Phillip Body, Ben
Vogelzang, Terry Walls and Reg Petts were
lucky/skilled enough to take a share of the
considerable purse.
The second event for the day was a 20 target
Single Barrel Graded Cash Event – a logical
continuation of the previous event. Terry
Walls was able to demonstrate his aptitude
in Single Barrel competition with an
unchallenged 20/20 to take out Overall
Winner and 1st in AA Grade. Great shooting
Terry! Bob Leita was able to remain
competitive, dropping only one target to
clinch second in AA Grade. Club President Gerry Lafferty made a strong account of
himself, outlasting several other shooters for
a 1st in A Grade with an impressive 36/37.
Mansfield visitor Ben Vogelzang, was able
to snatch a second with 23/25. As is usually
the case B Grade was hotly contested. Terry
McLaughlin was able to edge out fellow
squad member Alex McGregor by one target
with a respectable 24/26. Craig Hamilton
made an extremely successful return to
shooting after a short hiatus with an almost
perfect 19/20. Welcome back Craig! Ryan
Bockman displayed some of his old man’s
prowess, shooting a very respectable 18/21.
Event 3 was a 25
target Points Score
Championship
– a definite test to
see who had been
paying attention
in the previous
two events! Doug
“Fungus”
Sutherland proved
Doug “Fungus” Sutherland a competent
student, easily
accounting for his
competition with a
perfect 75/75 to be
“crowned” Overall
Winner and 1st
in AA Grade.
Phil Matthews’
position on the
presentation
list was attained after a much harder fought
battle. After a lengthy shoot-off, Phil finally
prevailed to take second in AA Grade with a
152/153. Gerry Lafferty was once again able
to dominate his grade, taking 1st in A with an
86/90. Peter Collicoat pushed him all the way
and finished only one point behind for second.
Reg Phefley helped make it a Mt. Bogong
1-2 in B Grade with a 72/75, Alex McGregor
took a share of the spoils with 78/84. Craig
Hamilton continued his return to form with a
very credible 70/75 for a clear win in C Grade.
Alan Gillett was a little further behind on
61/75 for second.
The July card was concluded with a 30 target
Double Barrel Championship and interestingly, some of the day’s best shooting was
displayed in this final event. As one would
expect, those shooters attempting to determine a result in AA Grade were definitely
the best example of this. Phil Matthews,
Terry Walls and Doug Sutherland were still
entrenched in the shoot-off after returning
more than once to replenish their shells – and
still no result in sight! Continuing the
hoot-off in a Point Score format, sensibly
bought the event to a conclusion – but even
this took some doing! Phil Matthews was
the eventual winner on 129/129, Doug target
behind on 128/129.Amazing shooting guys.
Tony Plum secured 1st in A Grade with 44/45,
Richard McCrum second on 29/30.
Vic Tomasoni has made a habit of featuring
on the Albury presentation list and did so
again with a 32/33 to take out 1st in B Grade.
Bega Gun Club member, Phil Body made the
visit worthwhile with a 52/53 earning him
the runner-up title in B Grade. In a brilliant
display of “raw cunning” Alex McGregor
Doug Sutherland and Terry
Walls’ consistent form throughout the day
had paid dividends, both posting a 132/135 to
be tied for the coveted High Gun trophy. Due
to prior commitments, and just completing a
lengthy shoot-off, Terry declined to challenge
the result and graciously handed Doug the
win. Congratulations to you both!
August
With blue

the beautiful
back-drop
of an ever
increasing
Hume Weir,
34 shooters
nominated
to compete.
As has
become
usual at
Shoot Marshall
Albury,
the shooter “demographic” was wide
and varied with eight different clubs
featuring on the board. All grades from
AA to C were represented, handicaps
covered the entire spectrum and the
age difference in some squads spanned
several generations!
The first event of the August program, a
15 target Walk Back cash divide, took full
advantage of the aforementioned demographic
and proved a real test for all concerned. Not
surprisingly, those competitors familiar with
shooting from “distant” marks fared far more
favourably than those used to the comfortable
sanctuary of 15 metres. Conversely, some of
the more experienced shots commented that
11 metres was far too close to the trap house
and in the spirit of “good sport” let several
targets land completely unscathed! Royce
Wojtowyez and Phil Matthews were the only
shooters to register a perfect score, requiring

a short-lived shoot-off to gain a result. Royce
held his nerve to take first in AA Grade with
19/19, Phil second on 18/19. Regular Albury
visitor John Allan was good enough to clinch
an outright win in A Grade, dropping only
one target for a 14/15. Short in stature yet
big in ability, Club President Gerry Lafferty
secured second place with 16/18. Warren Fish
and Greg Ganning battled it out for B Grade.
Warren prevailed with 18/19, Greg second on
18/20. Shane Norris was first in C Grade with
a respectable 13/16, fellow squad member
Phillip Wales only one target behind on 12/16.
Event 2 was a 25

of why this
sport can offer

competitors

style, 5
targets from each lane before proceeding to
the next, the event was hotly contested. As
was expected, a shoot-off was required to
determine a result for the first three places.
Mt. Bogong stalwart Reg Phefley (B Grade),
shooting off 17 metres, was the eventual
winner with 51/51. Bob Leita (AA Grade) was
once again in the mix and secured second
place from the 22 metre mark with 50/51
and Jacob Matthews (C Grade) continued his
recent fine form to take third prize with 47/48
off 15 metres. A presentation list that covered
the full gamut

experience!

years of experience had paid dividends
by securing first in B Grade. Dave’s 74/75
relegated Greg Ganning to second with a
72/75. Jacob Matthews’ good form had
continued from the previous event, 70/75
easily accounted for his competition in C
Grade and resulted in a long-awaited, and
much deserved, regrade. Congratulations Jake
and watch out B Graders! Second place went
to Ryan Bockman with 64/78.
The August program came to a conclusion
with a 25 target Double Barrel Continental
Championship, always a popular and
challenging event at Albury. Royce Wojtowyez
made the presentation list again, displaying his
proficiency in this event with a 35/35 to secure
Overall Winner and first in AA Grade. Trench
enthusiast Ross Liersch proved he could still be
competitive over several different disciplines,
posting a 31/32 for second in AA. Peter
Collicoat’s 34/35 was enough for first in
A Grade, Sam Clifton’s positive Albury
experience continuing for second with a
33/34. Greg Ganning had been experimenting
with a new gun all day, his first in B Grade in
this event with a 29/30 probably sealed the
deal! As usual, Harry Stolpe didn’t go home
empty-handed, a 26/27 was more than enough
to gain second place. Phillip Wales shot an
almost perfect 24/25 for first in C Grade, Ryan
Bockman another second with a 20/26. Ryan
delighted in the fact that his father had to do
all the “prize carrying” for once!
Bob Leita’s consistently good form has
become very much the norm in recent
months, securing several High Gun trophies
in the process. August 2010 was no
exception! Bob only dropped two points for
the entire day’s competition, as well as
dutifully completing his role as club
Handicapper. Congratulations on a great
score and great job! Jacob Matthews was
duly awarded Junior High Gun with
127/140. Marie Petts’ fantastic food was
as popular as ever and the gorgeous C
Grade baker made a return to competition
with a good score and even better
slice!
