Lonato, Italy in June and Tampere, Finland in July gave
us a number of medals. Firstly, Lonato yielded 4 silver and
1 bronze, so it was to Tampere where we witnessed
arguably the most outstanding individual performance for
the year and the most significant team feat of all time.
Michael's determination when all seemed lost came
through and he finished with the World Championship
title. His second gold medal came when, teaming with
Russell and Glen Kable, we won our first ever World
Championship gold. Suzie Trindall also shot extremely
well a t this event, winning bronze in the Junior Women,
an excellent achievement.
PRESIDENT'S
ANNUAL
REPORT
NOTES
It is with pleasure I bring to you my 1999 Annual Report.
I believe the most significant step in the year was moving
into our new National Office and the work that has been
completed so far on the Complex to ensure the future of
the ACTAand the sport of clay target shooting. To date our
work is well within budgeted estimations and contrary to
some rumours, we have not borrowed money, nor have we
used any funds from the Legislation Account.
During the year we experienced some staff changes, with
Graeme Brown finding the life in the country difficult to
adjust to after living all his life in the City. Graeme
resigned his position and Andrew Sanders was appointed
Executive Officer. Deborah Brown left to take up a senior
position with another Wagga Wagga company and with
her went our best wishes. Rebecca Blair and Daniel Bond
joined our staff as receptionist/typist and Accounts Clerk
respectively, and we look forward to their time with us.
Our total membership for the year was 12,381. I believe
this figure shows that the Association was able to maintain a significant number of the members who joined
during the period of uncertainity in firearm ownership.
Again in 1999 our shooters continued to achieve outstanding results in all segments of our sport, both internationally and at home. In Down the Line our teams excelled a t
the World Championships in Wales with the Open,
Veteran and Junior teams winning gold and our ladies
team the silver. ~h~ mostsignificant individual performance was the silver medal won by Terry Walls.
ISSF events our shooters continue to lead the world.
Our first gold medal for the year was won by Russell Mark
in trap at the World Cup in Peru. Other medais won there
were silver, in both the trap and double trap teams, and
Clive Barton shot extremely well to win bronze in skeet.
From the Cyprus World Cup we gained 1 silver and 1
bronze. On to Kumamoto, Japan, where Michael
Diamond's efforts earned him the gold medal in trap and
our team picked up silver. In double trap our men's team
were the bronze medal winners.
Page 2
New Zealand hosted the Third Commonwealth Championships and here Nidal Asmar, Craig Tilley, Nessa
Jenkins, Suzie Balogh and Natalie Rahman all performed
exceptionally well winning individual gold medals.
Many hours of tireless work is put in by our National
Executive members to ensure the best for all. Our only
Executive change for the year saw Bronte Evans return as
the delegate for Northern Territory replacing Tony Brown.
Welcome back Bronte and our thanks to Tony for his contribution whilst a member of the team.
Special thanks must he accorded to all our sub committees
and their chairpersons for their positive input to the Association. It is unfortunate that often these members are
subjected to unfair criticism, particularly the Rules subcommittee. We certainly welcome disagreement and
debate, but always in a spirit of co-operation and, please,
in the pursuit of a common goal.
To each executive member individually, I say thank you for
your support and your work during '99. I must note a
special thank you to my Vice President, and chairman of
the Finance Committee, Bill Jones. Bill's judgement in
both positions makes my task so much easier. Thank you
Bill.
Let us remember with affection those among our numbers
who passed away during the year. To their families left, we
express Our sympathy.
The Association is indebted to the Australian Sports Commission for their continued support. To our very valued
sponsors, a very genuine and sincere thankyou, your conribntion is irreplaceable. We must also express our thanks
to the City of Wagga Wag@ and their council for the way
in which they have assisted us in so many ways in our
relocation to their city
We have now moved into a new millenium and a new
chapter in the Australian Clay Target Association. Let us
all work for the betterment of our sport and our organization together. I firmly believe our future has never been
brighter.

Glen Innes Gun Club
Hosting the Northern Zone Dap Carnival
After months of preparation by
the members of the Glen Innes
Gun Club, the grounds were
ready to host the NSW Northern Zone Trap Carnival.
During the previous month the
Club had received notification
from the landowners that its
lease would not he renewed and
the club would have to relocate.
The club grounds looked a
picture with plenty of shade
tents, flowers &shrubs in vases.
Another
innovation
was
members wives or daughters
handing out pieces of fruit (beat that Mick Shields!)
winner
93 shooters nominated from
Clubs as far south as Canherra, Orange, Sydney & SW QLD. The
conditions were perfect for the first eventwhich was a graded cash
divide in which 39 possibles were recorded.
Event 2 was the Olympic Targets Northern Zone Double Barrel
C'Ship and giving some indication of what was going to happen
later on 30 possibles were squadded for the shoot off. Glen Innes
had a reputation of heing a hard Club to shoot a big break off. In
fact John Farrell from Coffs Harbour held the ground record of 240
shot a t a previous zone carnival. This shwt off was to continue
into the next day to finalize overall & AAGrade with 3 contenders
left - Tony Schafer, John Farrell &Brad Hooper. Brad was the first
to miss with his 419 target. John Farrell missed his 506 target,
giving victory to Tony Schafer from Cessnock with a great score of
5061506.
The Northern Zone Single Barrel C'Ship was started on Saturday
afternoon once the Double Barrel shoot off was in 1 squad. Surprisingly there were only 2 possibles -Tony Schafer & Jim Hunter
(who had driven 16 hours to attend this shoot). This event was also
finalised on Sunday morning with victory going to Jim Hunter
from Eromaugai who shoots with the Scrubby Creek Gun Club,
with a score of 86/86. Tony Schafer's break finally came to an end
with his 85th target, giving him a long break of 611 - congratulations.
After the shoot offs the first event on Sunday morning was again
another graded cash divide with 38 possibles sharing in the
sweepstakes. The Northern Zone Point Score C'Ship was the next
event and no possibles. Col Burt and Tony Schafer on 1481150 shot
off for the Overall, which was over after only 2 targets, giving
victory to Col Burt of Tamworth with a score of 1541156 fmm Tony
Schafer 1531156.
The Zone Teams were finalised after this event and good luck to
those competing against the other zones later on in the year.
The last event was the 50 Target Double Barrel Sapphire Coast
event and after the 50 targets there were 15 possibles. A gusty
head wind kept the shot off to a shorter version compared to the
Double Barrel C'Ship. Ian Burey from Glen Innes claimed Overall
victory with 114/114 from Brad Hooper of Kempsey with a score of
1131114.
No shoot offs were required for High Guns. Tony Schafer claimed
Overall, Brad Hooper AA Grade, Ian Burey A Grade, Peter
McGuire B Grade &Ian Thompson C Grade. The Ladies High Gun
was won by Cindy McBean, the Junior by Scott Wallis and Les
Kennedy was successful in the Veterans.
Some good scores were recorded and the secretary has placed
orders for plenty of break badges and the handicapper assisted
with thanks by Barbara Nash saw plenty of shooters break into
higher grades.

The hard working band of wives
in the kitchen assured us that

I was just putting the finishing
touches to this report when I
was advised of the sudden
passing of Col Burt from Tamworth. No doubt there will
appear tributes to Col from the

would like to say that to attend

On Saturday 29 January 2000, a t Nepean Clay Target Club,
the Commonwealth Ball Trap Championship was contested in
fine weather with a light breeze. This is normal for Nepean as
the scores indicated.
At the end of the first 50 targets Peter Mills (Cerberus) 50150
was ahead of Chris Carrol (Cerberus) and Craig Henwood
(Melbourne) with 49150, but they could not keep the pressure
on and Peter finally won overall by two targets.

There are two great events this month. The first being the ACTA
Nationals, the other the wedding of Manvic Manalon to Karl
Nasarenko and the wording of the ceremony would be like this.
Do you Karl take Marivic in squad 4 on lane 3 to be together as in
Deauvllle Doubles and remember that in Denuvlllc 1)oubles there is
no malfunction.
Do you Marivic take Karl for better and never complain about your
new handica~?
Best wishes and best of luck to both of you. Have a great lifetime
together.
I t reminds me of the young couple getting married and the groom to
be said to his future wife, "We don't know a lot about this safety stuff
and we don't want children straight away, so you go and see your mate
in the chemist and she will give you good advice". So the next day the
bride went to the chemist and talking to her girlfriend told her their
position, getting mamed and not wanting children, etc. So the girlfriend showed her several gadgets and after thinking for a while she
chooses something like balloons without blowing them up. So she said
"How do you buy them" and her girlfriend said "Loose in packs and
most colors". So then the bride to be said, "I will have blue, green and
yellow packs".
So eight months after the wedding the wife returned to the chemist
and asked her girlfriend could she fit her with a nursing brassiere and
her friend said sure no trouble all I need to know is what bust? And
the wife thought for a while and said it was the yellow one's that

On this day, Ted Turton received news that he had a leg in carrying
the torch for Sydney 2000. Ted carriedthe torch in 1956, so he knows
what it is all about. Ted isn't sure where his part of the run is yet but

You can't keep a good shooter down, as in the case with Graham, he
said he was going to Bundy even if he had to walk. His wife wanted
the car, Graham started walking from Rocky with his gun, ammo,
ham sandwich and his book of dirty jokes, just before daylight, and
was lucky going through Gladstone and saw Ray Wise and got a lift to
Bundy.
Graham gave me a few jokes for MTB, and I put them in bleach

. but they didn't come clean. Good to see you again Graham.

New shooters to join Bundy on the day were StafFord Smith and
Malcome Dawson. Welcome to Bundy. Kitchen staff were Cherryl,
Edie, LeeAnn and Auriel. Thanks for a great job, as we left early we
took numbers on whisky quickly board and Auriel said if we won she
would deliver it for a nip. So Monday morning and Stafford rang and
told me I won the quicky board but instead of whisky, it was $20 and
Auriel dropped it in my mailbox while shopping. So I was looking for
its arrival, as Auriel couldn't get a nip of whisky I was willing to cut
the corner of the $20 hut she was too slick for me as I had the bible
and most likely had my head in it. Thanks a lot Auriel, you would
make a good posty. And I forgot to include Irvine Wynyard in the visitors who is from TLGC. Irvine and Peter Pagliarino are both shooting in the NZ Nationals, which should.be over when this is out, best
of luck and good shwting fellas.
The meat tray raffle was won by Graham Harriman and in the
results, he is every where. Good shooting Graham.
As we left early, Kaye sent on the results, Thanks Kaye.

you to the shooters who came across from Cloncurry to the shoot.
You offered some great competition to our shooters and it is good
to catch up with yon all. It was great to see Rino Zanette shooting
66 targets in a row without dropping any during the night. Rino
also clean sweeped the prizes in "B"grade for down the line shooting, and Peter Bosel for "C" grade. Well Done.
The conditions for the shooters were very hot and humid in the
afternoon. The clouds built up and there was lots of lightning in

Dear Members,
I write this vale with a very heavy heart, the loss of Mr Col Burt
was a great shock to myself and all that knew him.
He was the epitome of what a true sportsman should be, kind, considerate, unassuming and always the true Gentleman.
I have only known Col for approx. 10 years but in that time considered him to be a friend and positive influence to all that met
him.
Our sport van not afford
lose such a fine man ;tz CoI, hut can
only hope his influence and memory will live on in those who he
touched throughout his long sporting career.
'To hls fam~lyand many fnends, especially hts beloved Tamwonh

Colin Burt
It has been our pleasure and pnvilcgc to have known and hcen
3ssociated with a true gentleman, sportsman and dedicated
ambassador for the sport of Clay Target shooting in Australia.
My first memories of Col began many years ago while attending a
New Year shoot a t Caffs Harbour Gun Club. A
~- couole of lone
haired surfy lads druve ~ L have
C
a luuk They were soon talked
into having a shot. Col was onc of thcvc lads and he participated
in most of the shoot offs and eventually won scvcrnl of the malor
events. Col in my opinion was one of the best conches in Austmlia
and had n gift for being able to communicate with junior and new
shooters. With his easy going attitude and joking manner he could
lift a shooters morale and have them achieve their best.
On Many occasions I have seen Cul w ~ t ha cur I,ved ofjunlor shuurers on board, driving to major shoots all over Australia. One rnemorable oouaslon was a trip to Darw~n.
I a m sure Col eot tremendous iov and satisfaction watchine his
pupils comperewand rise to hi&& and highcr achievement. Cnl
himsrlfwa3 one ofthr top shots in Australla, takinppart in all disciplines of Clay Target shooting. He excelled in all.
We have lost a friend, gentleman and sportsman.
God bless you Col and thanks for your friendship.

Colin Laurence Burt
"Burty"
24-8-1952 14-2-2000
-
Eulogy a s delivered by Ross Freestone a t Colin's Funeral Service
on 18th February, 2000
Please be patient whilst I read this a s I felt in could not be condensed.
Jenny, firstly I w ~ s hto express my appreclatlon to you in request~ n gmyself to pcrfurm this very honorable pnwlege
Just before I proceed with Colin's Eulogy, I wish, on behalf of
Page 20
Jenny and the related families to express their sincere gratitude
for your thoughtful and kind representation here today for the
Celebration of Colin's life.
Burty, although it is difficult far us to accept and deal with the
thought of your permanent absence, alternatively we will seek
solace and calm from your givings and the indelible pleasant and
rewarding memories that you have so naturally instilled within
us. Our consoling factor is knowing that yon are now i n the hands
of your maker i n the tranquil and beautiful expanse of Heaven
where you have been called Home to Rest.
Colin would not want his Funeral Service any other way than for
you all to extract some further happiness that this may provide.
The world has not enough of him in it although we must be
extremely thankful for what we have had.
Well, it all commenced on 24-8-1952 a t Inverell the 7th precious
child and 4th son - named Colin Laurence to Robert and Nita Burt.
Inverell High Scholl provided the culmination of Colin's secondary
education prior to his joinery apprenticeship to Bill Baker of Mt
Russell - which he completed in 1971. A move to Tamworth pmvided him an emolovment undertakine with Dickenson Constructtons allowing him the opponunity to attain his certificate as
Iluilding Foreman and Clerk of Works which 1974 ylcldcd for him.
His skill, imaginable foresight and workmanship standards i n all
facets of building construction was accurately superb with impeccable adherence to detail.
His serious shooting skill initialized a t Inverell RShI Gun Club in
1972 and later when he packed his bags to move to Tamworth i t
came too. A shoteun was not his first involvement with firearms or
the hku. 11was ~wnpowder,which reigned supreme. Whllst still at
lnvemll at the ripe old age of23 hc decided to&<vehis then 10 ycar
old nephew. Swphun a lesson in evploslves
So a 21b tin of gunpowder was emptied down a n ant's nest and he
proceeded to throw matches until the entire thing blew up spreading the ant and the ant bed into a n area the size of a tennis
court.
Anyway, he settled in Tamworth and turned up a t Attunga where
the local grounds were situated for his first local shoot - and
Graham Wilson - that's Roo Wilson - thought who is this long
haired lout - definitely not the polished look that Roo was! Col's
blondie colour hair draped to shoulder length but gee could he
shoot! He didn't need that second barrel much either - but when
he did i t didn't seem to work as well as it should have. We never
checked that 2nd tube in that double barrel gun for straightness
though. Roo and Col were responsible for the present location of
the Tamworth Clay Target Club in excess of some 23 years ago.
Col making the major decisions on its position, aspect and building design. With Colin's exceptional construction skills and
Graham's father - The late Bill Wilson - donating the sawn timber
from his property provided the necessary building materials. The
slab was poured in the cold winter month and Colin's extreme
concern uf froat damage to the newly poured slab encouraged him
to slccp un slt in ;t whut,l barrow wlth a few bags for blankets - so
he would be rcadv. to Ilchr
- fires to keep rhe frosr off the slab if ncoessary.
The bar was not constructed then however 6 packs had just
reached vogue. Col never missed a working bee and always
doubled the effort of any individual. He also carted the timber for
that complex in his utility and about this time he was shortly elevated to Presidential status of the cluh and his self employed business - Centreline Building Constructions had well and truly
evolved.
The Loomberah range was up and running, it is Skeet Carnival
time and the boys have been having some pre shoot practice the
dav before. Adrian Cousens arrives in Tamworth for the first time
. one thine leads to another and Adrian discloses his fancv of
shooting targets from the hip - so Colin is summoned forward nnbeknown to Adrian of Col's harnessed skill within. Burty could
shoot 23/25 off the hip on a skeet layout and he was just a s effi-
Australian Clay Target Shooting News
April 2000
cient a t double rise. Remember, he'd given you that cheesy grin of
a scoundrel and his famous words were - "watch this" - closely followed by his peculiar laugh. The duel between Colin and Adrian
finishes halfway around the skeet layout on station 4 - Col has a
target lead and Adrian states - 7 think you better call him off'.
Roo wins the first days championship, Burty wins the next day
and High Guns the whole event and the next year Adrian fairly
disgraces any opposition and later on becomes Australia's best
skeet shot and world chamnion.
Some ofyou may not be aware ofthis but Colin was Australia'~No.
1 - h e was Mr. Exception - h e was the very best and unequalled as
the nations loudest snorer!! So bad that when Col and Roo were at
a Sydney location and were sleeping apart on a verandah - that
Roo got so esaperated he tossed his boot a t Burty - there was a
slight silence momentarily - then Burty recommences snoring Roo reaches for his other boot and hears "Don't throw that one a t
me" a s he pretended to be asleep.
At an event in Griffith his snoring was so atrocious his camper van
was reverberating. The lads decided i t would be best to relocate i t
a further 300 yards away and guess what - Burty didn't miss a
beat.
It is now 26-10-1985 - a t least he has someone to love and care for
him - Burtv marries Jennv Etheridw - she endeavors to form Col
into some organizational standard,-however not a thing changes.
Her patience still persists and Col would have definitely been
overwhelmed with her dedicated effort. He'd forget his lunch. his
appointments and his arrangements - but n e v e p ~ l u bshoots'and
definitely not the Dog.
On 26-4-1988 he gained his level 3 coaching Accreditation and was
1of onlv 4 a t that stage in Australia. He also sewed on the NSW
Clay %;get State ~ x G u t i v efor almost 20 years and held various
responsible positions including Vice President and Handicapper.
He was also the State Coachine Director for 5 vears - not onlv that
-there is more
Burty was the King of the Kids - Hal and Shirley Burke's daughter Kate - when she was about 16 or 17 - not that far backexpressed how she would like to go to the show - so Col sympathetically volunteered when she stated that she bad nobody to
take her. Not much time had elapsed when they both returned.
Hal and Shirley - bewildered a t their early arrival and Kate
explains - Col got sick on the rides!
Well, back home on the range he provided his professional coachs a couple of young boys who are real keen and puts
ing s e ~ c e to
in countless voluntary hours for a close mates sons. His good mate
was Col Barton - but he was always "mongrel" to Burty - but I
knew he didn't mean it. The sons of course, Clive and George. His
time and dedication eventually pays off as they represent Australia a t International events and enjoy extreme National success
also. Further and supplementary to his coaching he seeks local
sponsorship to assist Clive with his financial burden towards his
overseas success. In 1996 Colin flew to Kuala Lumpur to watch
Clive compete in the Commonwealth Games - a trip Burty self
subsidized.
You know Burty was also a difficult contender on a snooker table
-anything that demanded eye movement or any form of alignment
he was the master.
But Learner Days -they were the best value of the lot. When new
shooters showed interest in learning clay target shooting - the
Down-The-Line layout would be used and Col would hide totally
out of sight around the side of the skeet layout which shared
common ground and hit their targets for them - especially if they
missed - or even before they fired!
With his shooting he had exceptional psychological discipline - he
never detracted this focus from the next target procedure. If you
would have asked - say through a 25 target trap event how many
targets remaining - he would have had to count his shells left to
provide the answer.
Recently in Wagga he achieved National Champion in Skeet
Shooting - he had won titles of most forms of clay target shooting
and a t various Zone and State Levels. His trophy room is indicative of his immense talent and his success too numerous to
mention.
I enjoyed a lot of rifle shooting expeditions with Colin and one
night in the spotlight he shot a duck in full flight using his
.........
April 2000
-
unsighted .22 rifle like a pistol. Some 12 years back I contacted
him to see if had a bit of spare time to assist me in the new found
art of using a shotgun . He would always down tools or whatever
and state - "It wont take us long - or it's not far to the gun club".
A thoughtful, considerate and unselfish man - a perfect and true
inspiration to mankind - but step well aside if you ever stood on
his toes
On a more serious note, in the mid 90's Col is diagnosed with
cirrdia myopsthy - and in 1996 receives a pacemaker w keep him
tired up. Prior u, this he had warning signs when he blacked out
one day whilst a t work. It was medically revealed that he was in
trouble and options were short on.
This new artificial addition never impcdcd his dtivc or dctcrmination, as hard work was never considered a n obstacle. His life
obviously was somcwhat lenb~hmcdbut a mab4o wand could nor
be waved.
From May 1999 he made tremendous structural improvement and
additions to the ACTANational Shooting Ground a t Wagga. Ahrief
return to Tamwortb for a break caught him up on accumulated
odd jobs a t home and then he returned to Wagga on 9th February
for another final stint - which was to last about 2 months.
Rcgrettably someone supcnor decided that he was needed elsewhere for a well earned rest as he had put the equivalent of nearly
96 ycars in down here and given his all.
Please be thankful for the fulfillment he has provided, how he has
sewed, the various ways he has successfully achieved, the lessons
we have so generously learnt, the laughter we have shared with
his humorous and jovial interaction with us during his existence.
From all of us Col, Good Luck, Gad Bless and Farewell on your
new journey - you are 110 out of 100 - you could never be duplicated - your memories will be forever immortalized - our lives have
been so much more enriched by your being.
Thanks mate for what we have all received - and Dear Lord,
because he is so special could you please take good care of him for
US.

functioned, the following is relevant " you can lead a Horse to
Water, but you can't make it drink".
Before I go on lets name these machine a t Wagga. They are t h e
Gemini Clay Target throwers, and by naming the place, (as
most shooters know what is installed a t Wagga) the letter and
the article have identified t h e machines and their statements
are directed toward one product only, so lets stop kidding yourself.
Cuzzo's Ramblings in the December 99 Clay Target Magazine.
None of the statements, assumptions and conclusions drawn by
the author or anyone else in t h e article with respect to the
throwers has any bases of fact. I n the way the article describes
these machines the reader is entitled to come to t h e conclusion
that the Gemini machined used a t Wagga are totally unsuitable for the purpose that they were designed for.
The article serves only one purpose. I t gives support to all the
unsubstantiated existing rumors and creates some new ones
about the Gemini throwers. I n order to limit the amount of
damage (and the phone calls tell me so), that the article has
and will cause in the future, I have no option but to reply with
a factual lengthy detailed article in the next Issue. Because of
the details required I will be forced to disclose factual propriety
information t h a t was never intended for public consumption,
a s a result, other manufacturers will gain valuable information
a s to what makes the Gemini machine tick.
I n paragraph 6 & 7 with reference to pick-ups the author continues a s he started, jumping to conclusions without any facts.
I n order to draw any valid conclusion h e needs to know the
answers to all the following questions: Total energy required
breaking a target? Distance from the gun to where the target
was hit? Velocity of the shell being used and the choke of the
gun? Shot size being used? Angle of the shot pellets relative to
the target were the marks made? Which side of the spinning
target were these marks made?
Unless he can walk on water, (in Wagga I observed him
wearing gum boots, just a bit of insurance I hear you say), there
is no possible way to know the answer to any one of the above
questions.
I n coming to these non-factual conclusions be maligns a perfectly good product. What was the intention of his article?
Reading between the lines of the article he seems to suggest
(and I may be wrong), t h a t a shooter that places 3-4 stray
pellets on a target out of a possible no of 365 (28gr. load)
deserves to receive a score of (one) for that effort.
Finally I wish AA's like Bill Iles could teach all of u s average
shooters, how to put the pattern in the middle, the subject of
throwers and hard targets would never arise.

The main event for the day was the Championship Event, event
three, 25 targets points score. At the completion of squad shooting,
three shooters were required back on the walks for a shoot off afcer
posting 74/75. After a short shoot off, part time shooter Dave
Reynolds was victorious after hitting his last target with a very
skinny second barrel. The other shooters not able to stay with
Dave were Craig Morris and Karl Nasarenko.
Event three produced the best shooting for the day. Four 49/50
scores were posted requiring a three way shoot off to determine
the AA grade winner. Phil Grove dropped out a t the 88th target
leaving Wawe Murray and Quinto Porfiri to continue on. Another
40 odd targets were required before Quinto missed his 132nd
target leaving Wayne Murray the AA grade title. Three scores of
48/50 were recorded in Agrade requiring a shoot off to determine
second in this grade. Terry Crowson dropped out first followed by
Frank Robinson (Mundubbera) one target later leaving Kev
Howard the spoils.
For a change, the Overall High Gun was not won by Quinto Porfi~i
but by a regular visitor to the club, Karl Nasarenko from Caboolture. Karl's shooting appears to improve when he is not busy
assisting in the office. Wes Humphreys shot well to take out the
AA grade high gun. A shoot off was required to decide the A grade
high gun winner. Teny Crowson being the eventual winner from
Scott Trafford. l k o other visitors to the Club took out the B and C

and to dish out plenty of stick to thdse you believe are wrong, it
unfortunately requires you to come clean when you're the one
who's in error. So this month, for a nice change, instead of
examining areas wherc I think other people are wrong, I want
to focus on some aress where I hsvc recently been proven incorrect. Let's stan with my oscillator theory on Trap Machines.
-
Back in last December's magazine, I elaborated nt length on
several ideas that Marc McInnes and I hod in trying to explain
the lowness of the scores at the NSW Trap Carnival. One suggestion was that the recent change frim manually load&
White Flyer machines to automatic Geminis may have caused
an adverse change in the ratio of swineers to straight awav
targets. I theorized that changing the dGve angle ofihe osciilator mechanism from 180 degrees on the White Flyer to 270
degrees on the Gemini might produce this effect. Guess what?
Nice try Cuzzo, but not even close!
Ludwig Kohler, the manufacturer of Gemini Trap Machines,
phoned me one night after the article was published to discuss
this and several other matters with me. He very politely and
patiently explained the whole situation to me in layman's
terms so that I could understand it. My first error was not in
the observance of the Gemini throwing more swingers than
sh-aight-aways, but in not realizing that I have been watching
White Flyers do exactly the same thing for years without noticing it. My second error was in theorizing that changing thc
oscillator drive angle could alter this effect, which it clearly
can't. I am now totally connnced that all machines that derive
their oscillation from a random circular crank mechanism,
which both White Flyer and Gemini do, will produce an identical pattern spread of targets.
Furthermore he explained why he elected to utilize an oscillation system driven by a separate intermittent motor and precisely how that system worked. That understanding has also
totally convinced me that Leni Crema's theory on the adverse
affect of Ludwig's intermittent oscillator is as erroneous as my
own, and that the Gemini system will produce exactly the same
target pattern as the continuous oscillator on a White Flyer.
However, the advantage of Ludwig's system is that it makes the
trap theoretically unreadable, which is not necessarily the case
with a White Flyer, particularly if the interrupter is disconnected, as most of them are, due to being mechanically troublesome.
It's now also clear that changing the arm drive from a coil
spring to a leaf spring can have no affect on the target once it
leaves the arm, and as the trajectory is fixed by the rulebook,
launch velocity variations appear to be out as well. So the only
other obvious area where the change in machines could affect
the competitor's ability to break the targets is a potential difference in the spin rate generated by each individual macbine
design. Ludwig claims that his machine imparts a rotation
speed on the target which is very similar to that of the White
Flyer, and that he is in the process of documenting quantitative
evidence to support that claim.
Given that fact, the only other major area I can see which
would affect scores is target "hardness" or breakability. I personally think this is most of the problem and as I said back in
December. I believe it stems from our decision to trv to shoot
T r~~r

at hand. Anyone who h i s been to either the Grand American
Trapshoot or the World Skeet Championships will attest to the
facc that the targets they shoot over there are much softer and
easier to "puff up" than those whch we shoot here in Australia.
Mast first time visitors to the U.S. spend the first couple ofdays
~~~~~~
wondering how their chokes got so much tighter on the fight
over.
The obvious answer is to revert back to "softer"targets here in
Australia. However, such a solution is fraught with other
dangers and may not provide an instant trouble-free "quick
Ex", except perhaps where manually loaded White Flyers are
used. Because our Traps have enjoyed the luxury of hard
targets for so long, even the more sophisticated hopper-fed
machines, which lower the target onto the throwing arm with a
lifter plate, may need some fine tuning to accommodate softer
targets. And some of the more cost effective macbine designs,
which drop the target onto the arm. mav be even more difficult
to adapt 6 ~ m e r i c a nstyle targets
I had a first hand experience with this problem recently at
Tamworth's Annual Two-Day Skeet Shoot. They decided to use
a batch of Olimpyc's new "improved" targets at the shoot and
the machine breakage rate was definitely above par. However
it was not bad enough to spoil a great shoot and I'm sure that
with some maintenance work on the traps, they'll soon get that
problem under control. The flip side though was better scores,
bigger shoot-offs and longer breaks. Many people recorded personal bests, at least three 200 breaks were shot and the
National Skeet Long Run Record finally tumbled after almost
15 years. And not a ventilated pick-up was to be found. Well
done Tamworth Gun Club! They now hold the National Record
in both Trap and Skeet.
And my personal congratulations to Olimpyc. They clearly had
some serious quality control problems recently, resulting in
some very hard targets, but they certainly seem to be making
up for it now. I spoke to Alan Kenny some time ago about controlling target quality and he believes we need to develop a
target quality specification and then devise a method of testing
targets to meet that standard. I couldn't agree more. I also
spoke to Bill Jones and his thinking is very similar to Alan's.
Bill suggested that our rulebook should not only dictate the
physical dimensions of the target but could also include a relative density standard and/or some sort of measurable crush
test.
I'm told the ISU rulebook originally had a type of target crush
test where a specific weight was dropped from a certain height
onto the target. Although workable, such a method seems a bit
crude and would have only provided a "go-no go" type of result.
A much more quantitative measurement would seem to be
easily and economically attainable. After a little tinkering I
have devised a simple portable crusher where the force is
applied to the dome of the target by a hydraulic jack and a
spring damper. The applied force can then be measured by
either a pressure gauge on the jack, or a linear indicator on the
spring.
During the developmental stage ofthe design process I came up
with another of my theoretical brainwaves that turned out to
be a fizzer in prilutiuc. I figured that a more realistic simulation
ofthe breaking force ofthe pellets could be achieved by putting
four rounded prongs the same diameter as a #7 pellet on the
end of the crusher. Unfortunately they simply punched neat
holes through the target and thus emphasized once again the
important pnn that centrifugal force plays in the breaking of a
clay target. Plcase give this whole matter some thought and
feei freeto contact me if you have any suggestions. ~ e & e e n
the
whole twelve odd thousand of us, surely we should be able to
come up with some sort of simple viable testing standard.

about Decembers STQ. Who was the last lcfi handed shooter to

wasn't. It wasn't Gary McDonald! How do I know thnt? Because
hnlfthe shooters in the Northcrn Territory hove called up to set

me straight. So how could I possibly have made such a faux
pas? Well, I considered thinking up a good story to explain it
away, but eventually I decided to go with the truth, no matter
how much I hate it, so here it is.
When I originally typed out the question, it had just popped
into my head and I had no idea who the answer was. I guess I
figured that later on I would glance down the list of previous
winners and work it out. because I was Drettv sure that I would
recognize each name well enough to be 'able io bring the person
to mind. However when everyone that responded suggcstcd it
was Gary, I fell in, hook line and dinker Anyway, now I'm going
to have to makc amends. Gary Mcl)onnld alrcndy has his prize,
and he's too big to get it back from, so that's out.
Fortunately I still have a couple of unclaimed prizes left over
from last years budget. For a start we had better give one to
Victor Fertiklis from Darwin, because h e really did outshoot all
the big boys in the Double Barrel down in Tassie a few years
back and unfortunately for me, h e is a molly-duker. Why couldn't his mother have cracked him over the knuckles a t a tender
age and made him carry his Teddy i n the other hand. And while
we're a t it, we'd better give another one to the much traveled
Gary Quan Sing, because he was the first one to ring me up and
inform me of my error. Congratulations boys and I hope to see
all three of you in Wagga i n a couple of weeks, shooting the
National Double Barrel a t my expense.
Vale. The 2000 Skeet Nationals will see the second consecutive
occasion when the reigning National Skeet Champion will be
unable to defend his title. It will also mark the second consecutive year that I have suffered the painful loss of a very near and
dear friend. Col Burt was one of the nicest blokes I ever met, in
or out of shooting. He conformed to the dictionary's definition of
a gentleman and to my definition of a true sportsman: humble
in victory and gracious in defeat. He was a great shooter, a
great competitor, a great friend and a wonderful ambassador
for our sport. He dedicated the last year of his life to building a
magnificent facility for all of us to enjoy a t the National Shooting Ground, and I a m hopeful that our organization will see fit
to honour that achievement in some wav. The shootine world
will miss him. The world in gcncrnl will miss him. I miss him
already. And in closing 1 must also add my condolences to Mark
McInnc.~,who lost his wife Kim the same week we lost Col.

This month's Shooting Trivla Question. I havc won the
National Skcct High Gun five times. The highest score I ever
shot was 398x400. On only one occasion was I equaled on that
score and forced to shoot on. Name the other shooter? Mail your
answer to Shooting Trivia, P.O. Box 265, Bairnsdale 3875, to
arrive by 25-04-00. The first correct answer drawn shall receive
a free entry to this year's National Skeet Championship. The
correct answer to February's STQ was: By winning the C of C
in 1951 and the Skeet 29 years later in 1980, George Biggs
became the shooter whose individual National Championship
wins i n Trap andfor Skeet spans the greatest number of years?
The first correct answer drawn was submitted by Carol Betteridge f?om Home Hill in Queensland, who wins a free entry
to the National Paintscore a t Waeea later this month. Conaatulations Carol. If anyone has a gicd trivia question or a n ikteresting subject for discussion in this column, please forward it to

Development Camp
On Friday 21st J a n u a j , 2000 we assembled Juniors from Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales a n Queensland, some 22
in all, with coach John Maxwell and me a s the Camp Manager,
a t a training camp which was held inconjunction with the Australia Cup a t Cecil Park Gun Club.
Our accommodation for the weekend was a t the Hunt's Motel
complex a t Liverpool and our transport was a 12 seater bus and
some private cars, this proved 'oh-so-squeezy' both to and from
the airport with all of our luggage. The accommodation and
recreation area which included a swimming pool and tennis
courts was quite good and I had a n apartment near the pool
where we could do our breakfast cooking for those who wanted
it in the mornings. We also had the use of quite a large barbecue
that the motel loaned to us and some extra bowls and dishes
where we had a barbecue both Friday and Saturday nights and
I must thank Dot Trindall, Maria Rahman, Sophia Psarakis and
Susie Trindall for making up all of the salads, cutting up rock
and water melons, etc, etc, and to Andy Sanders for cooking the
barbecue on Friday night. These two evenings were quite special
where we even utilized the rubbish bin for eskies and I believe
everyone enjoyed themselves whether swimming or playing
tennis till it was 'lights out'' time a t around 11 o'clock each
night.
The vcnuc for the Training Camp was the Sydney International
Shooting Ground (Cecil Park Gun Club) where wcjoined in with
the Senior Australian Tralninr! Squad and the Olvmvic
. . Shadow
Team who were competing in Ehekustralia Cup.
The reason that we had combined the two events was to enable
John and I to observe the Juniors i n a friendly competitive
atmosphere and I believe that the Juniors themselves could
learn by shooting alongside and observing the likes of Michael
Diamond, Russell Mark and Deserie Waktield-Baynes, some of
the best shooters in the world, seeing how they prepare themselves, their stance and how/where they held their guns. Watching is learning.
Most of the Juniors shot both Trap and Double Trap so we could
see which discipline they may be best a t whole. Those who shot
Skeet mixed in with the Australian Team and the shooters from
the Netherlands who had come out to do some training with us.
John worked tirelessly throughout the 3 days on multiple coaching and one-to-one coaching and maybe we did not get a s much
done a s we would have liked, one thing that I learned was that
we will need more Coaches and helpers a t future camps. All of
the participants were given a commemorative polo shirt and a
book on the history of the A.C.T.A. to those who wanted one.
At the completion of the event on Sunday afternoon, John and I
named the 10 person Team that we selected to go to the New
Zealand ISSF National titles. This team wai not necessarily
selected from the scores that were shot during the camp but
those Juniors whom we believed would get the most benefit out
of a competition of this nature.
John and I could not fault the behavior or the wllin~mrssto
learn uf any of the J u n l o r ~and while thc A.C.1:A. has young
shootcrs of this caliber comlna through the ranks. I believe the
future of clay target shooting% looking very bright.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank the A.C.TA. for sponsoring this event and especially the Shooting committee and Bill
Jones of the Financc Committee for making all of this possible.
John and I would like to see all of the Juniors from this first
camp, participate a t another camp, in the near future.

'Xecommendations on these aspects were agreed on a t the Sydney
Summit and have already been passed on to the WADA Board,"
Minister Kelly said.
'We will continue to discuss these issues with the IOC and the
WADA!'
In the declarations from the Summit, the governmknts agreed, in
the interests of all athletes and youth, to work with WADA to
p"SUe a n effective, world-wide concerted campaign against drug
abuse in sport. As well, long-term educative strategies will be
developed based on sociological research and targeted a t all levels
Of sport.
Sports drug testing laboratories should be accredited by a n independent agency and accreditation standards will assess laboratories on the basis of their scientific capability, quality management
and ethical standards. The delegates agreed this function should
be the responsibility of the WADA.
These moves are expected to intensify and co-ordinate the fight
against drug cheats to levels - and bring in a hard-hitting systematic approach - never seen before.
nvo top Australian athletes attended the Sydney Summit, rowing
.%old Olympian, Kate Slatter and St. George - Illawarra star
hooker, Nathan Brown.
"Everybody in the sporting world I've spoken to is right behind the
nations' pro-active stance," Kate Slatter said.
"There have been too many drug-related scandals in sport and all
the countries of the world have to pull together; we all have to
make sure the determination shown a t the Sydney Summit is
carried through into action," she stressed.
"Drugs are a huge problem in the general community as well;
sporting people are a role model for young people and must show
the way by example."
Kate, from ~ d e l a i d eand in training a t the Australian Institute of
Sport in Canberra, represented Australia a t the Barcelona and
Atlanta Olympics.
-1 hope to be able to bc proud to represent my country at a tawlly
drug-frec Olympics in the year 2000 and it's b ~ c a to
t see Australia
at the forefront of the effort to stamo out the druc users: we all
want to be harder, faster and better n; our sports --but on'a level,
drug-free playing field.
'Thc bcsr-practice organisarional structures and protocols I saw
being put i n place at thc Sydney Summit will ensure that all the
world's Olympians will respect the rules and abide by them.
'The Sydney Olympics will be the best ever fur world span and for
clrnn competition free from the stigma and shame of drug abuse the ktds out there deserve nothing less." Kace said.
Australia has put drug cheats planning to attend the Sydney 2000
Games on notice.
Top scientists are being enlisted to fine tune the most sophisticated methods ever devised to detect drug cheats.

of the dopers, their drug-induced performancehas
depended increasingly on synthetic EPO (erythropoietin) which
works by increasing the number of red blood cells, lifting oxygen
levels to boost performance.
Often used in plasma replacing the bodys entire blood supply, synthetic EPO has taken doping techniques to new heights and has
been difficult to detect, but with the attention of the world on the
Sydney Olympics, all the forces of legitimate science are being
marshalled to try to ensure the Sydney Games are clean.
During the summit Minister Kelly pledged Australia rvould
provide $1.5 million to validate a way to test for EPO, subject to
the IOC accepting a n Australian submission for funding support.
The IOC subsequently announced its support for the Australian
research project on 9 December.
Minister Kelly told the summit that researchers from the Australian Institute of Sport and the Australian Sports Drug Testing

Key nations representing all regions of the world have come
together i n a n unprecedented move to get drugs out of sport.
Governments have demonstrated their pivotal role in ensuring all
athletes compete on the level playingfield of natural ability in the
lead up to the Sydney 2000 Games and into the new millennium.
The latest moves flow fmm the International Drugs in Sport
Summit held recently in Sydney and initiated by Australia.

determination to root
the dopers: the 25 nations
represented at the summit advocated a system of 'cinternationally
applicable and equivalent sanctions across all sports, such as a
two-year minimum ban for first-time offenders".
~h~~ committed to establishing national drug testing
including year round, no notice, out-of-competition testing.
Delegates also stressed that athletes' rights would be protected
throughout the sample collection, analysis and result management process, with the right of appeal and arbitration.

They agreed drug testing will be conducted in accordance with
internationally accepted procedural standards, specifically the
International Standard for D a ~ i n aControl.
Policies will include an independent system for prior approval to
use substances from n predetermined list >r.lte~r
there are genuine
therapcurie reasons and no thrrapcutic :~lt~.rnar~vcs,
and such usc

As a result of the Sydney Summit nations are also expected to
boost their border controls to help stop the traffic in anabolic
steroids and performance-enhancing hormone preparations and
will review penalties for trafficking in anabolic steriods to ensure
they adequately reflect the governments'strong anti-doping policy.
Governments will also review processes to enhance the-flow of
intelligence information between regulatory and enforcement
agencies and anti-doping agencies.
The delegates

detecting endogenous subsrencui such as growth hormone and
E1'0, and that rcscnrchers must increase levels ofcanperation, collaboratlon and inforrnatwn sharing.
Educntwn programs for athlcres will be stepped up and there will
be an lncrease in the nunher of bilatcr:~land mulr~lntrrnldrug
testing agreements.
The summit also addressed the issue of the World Anti Doping
Agency recently established by the Intcl'nnrlonal Olympic Cornmitter (IOC..
Australia's Minister for Sport 2nd Tourism, Jackie Kelly, pointed
out that before the Sydneqsummit, there was no agreemen? about
how a world anti-doping agency could truly enforce "pure performance" in sport on a global basis.
"Thanks to the pressure from world governments a t this summit a
new standard has been set for the effective operation of the world
anti-doping agency," the Minister said.
In a n unprecedented show of international co-operation, all
nations represented unanimously agreed to boost the accountability, transparency, independence and global representation of the
new World Anti-Doping Agency.
~h~ summit agreed to set up a consultative
drawn from the
governments of the world to ensure that the commitments made
a t the summit are carried through. The group will also work with
WADA to ensure that i t has equitable geographic representation
on its board.
The WADA board of members will be selected from public authorities from all geographic regions. The consultative group will also
make recommendations on several other issues raised regarding
WADA, such as its location, governance and decision-making
processes.

Laboratory have found "foolproof and demonstrable scientific
bases" for detecting synthetic EPO in blood samples.
The joint IOCIAustralian Government funding will help
researchers to undertake "validation studies" during the next six
to nine months to ensure the EPO test is "reliable and robust".
The Australian study will be done in collahoration with scientists
fmm France, Canada and Norway and with sports institutes and
authorities from China, France, Italy and the United States.
The IOC has already given its approval for blood samples to be
taken from athletes competing in in Sydney for the Olympics. If a
reliahle method for detecting EPO is determined samples will be
collected to detect use. If it is not found, the samples will be taken
from athletes on a voluntary basis and used for research.
Minister Kelly said the IOC decision to support the Australian
research project gives us a critical boast in our efforts to try to
develop a foolproof test in time for the Sydney 2000 Games.
'"The IOG's support sends a very loud and very welcome message
that it is a s determined as we are to keep sport drugs free," she
said.
Top Australian and rvorld athletes have thrown their support
behind these unprecedented international efforts to get prohibited
performance-enhancing drugs out of sport.
In Minister Kelly's words, everything possible is being done to
ensure the Sydney Olympics will he "pure performance".
'3nhancing drug detection research to keep up with, and where
possible keep ahead of, the latest doping practices is a key part of
the Australian Government's Tough on Drugs in Sport strategy.
"We're totally committed to getting
.drugs
. and drug
.cheats out of
sport," the Minister stressed;
World sporting and government leaders agree the International
Drugs in Sport Summit in Sydney has made a level of progress
never seen before by achieving a global breakthrough in the war
against drug cheats.
Their deliberations will result in the hroadest range of obstacles
ever faced by sport dopers.
High quality national drug testing programs will be set up in conjunction with national sporting organisations and drug testing
resources will be applied strategically world-wide to maximise the
attack on problem areas.
"Australia's Tough on Drugs in Sport Strategy is all about doing
the right thing by our kids; it's all about showing them the right
way," Minister Kelly said.
"Hosting the summit has demonstrated Australia's commitment to
drug-free sport and recognises our position a s a world leader on
anti-doping issues.
"I am delighted it resulted in other governments committing
themselves to estahlish comprehensive national anti-doping programs that are modelled on the Australian approach set out in our
Tough on Drugs in Sport strategy
"This includes strategies for government action in a range of
areas including policy, protection of athletes' rights, sanctions,
drug testing, education and information services, research, supply,
control and international collaboration.
"It proves that goucrnmcnts rhe world over have a strong role to
play in the fight against drugs i n sport."

Behold the shooter
(from a shooter News possibly in the 60s)
The photo shown turned up when going through my late
husband Scotty Gibson's papers. It was taken at the Perth
Nationals in 1980 and the story as I remember may be of interest to readers.
Doug Smith, a winner of many Championships, and Russell
Mark a t that time was still a Junior, were in a shoot off for the
Double Barrel Championship.
Doug was using factory loaded shells given to him to use. As
the shoot off progressed, these shells produced a third missfired and the result 'lost target" from the Referee was as per
the rule:-a rule that was introduced when home-loaders' shells
were frequently producing misfires...due to the lack of precision and care in putting together their home-loads!
The rule did not differentiate between home load and factory
load.
He spends much time, energy and income attempting to
do something that he already knows is well nigh impossible.
He clutters up the home with such oddments as guns,
cleaning gear, gun cases, loaded and unloaded shells,
every conceivable piece of reloading equipment, rags, oils,
shooting jackets, badges and patches, to say nothing of
books newspaper cuttings and magazines - all about guns
and shooting.
He goeth to shoots full of enthusiasm and hope, spends
more than he can afford, and brings home either nothing
or a t best a trophy that his wife and family have no use
for.
He sometimes takes his wife and family to a shoot, then
sets about ignoring them while discussing with other
fanatics such interesting subjects as loads, swing, breaks,
lost birds, chokes, high combs and patterns.
There is no hope for this person, as invariably he threatens to 'give it away' and systematically sets about repurchasing another gun and more gear (by this time it has all
advanced in price), and from then on, much more shooting
occurs and more strife on the home front.
When he finally enters Heaven???? his password to St
Peter will probably be "Pull".
-Gunsmoke WifeThis would still be apt today, I'd say.
Are there others with tales to tell? (Scotty in the 60's
diddo!!)
The oval oak dining table with four holes bored into i t to
take the reloader of the day!!!
The wooden clothes horse with a large sheet of brown
paper pinned to i t used ....to pattern the gun!!!!
Is it still full of holes and no doubt lead shot!!!!
Nancy Gibson
The decision created consternation amongst some of the of'fcials. Pressure was put on the Shoot Marshall, Tim Catling, to
bend the rules for this important Championship. Even
Russell's Dad expressed dismay that Russell should win such
a technicality, however the final decision was as per the rule.
Doug who accepted the decision without question did comment
to Tim, "this decision would be tough on one who had never
won a major trophy".
When it came to the presentation, Russell had to he persuaded
by Tim to come out of the tent he was in, to accept the Sash
and Trophy that were rightfully his.
The Referee was Scotty Gibson, well known for his - knowing
the Rules...and sticking to them!
Just an incident from the past!
Yours
Nancy Gibson
