The effort of our members that were successful in
Glasgow has been hailed a success by the administrators
of the Games and the Australian International Shooting
Limited (AISL). This success I am sure will further assist in
funding our sport into the future to earn further success at
other Games and events. Congratulations again to all twelve
of our members that attended.
There is discussion however on the Commonwealth Games
front that the disciplines of women’s skeet and women’s
double trap may be removed due to the limited number of competing nations.
I can assure members that I have already had a discussion with the President of
Commonwealth Games Shooting expressing our association’s desire to include these
sports in the Games, and for no shooting disciplines to be removed. Further to this
I have also lobbied AISL to speak on our members’ behalf for these disciplines to
continue. Members will be advised when further information comes available.
I have been asked by several members why I published in the CTSN an article
regarding shooter infringements and the discussion regarding going to the police if
members are aware of an illegal activity. The reason is that it is no longer acceptable
for members to go to a club, zone, State or national executive member and
‘download’ about an illegal activity that they have become aware of. Then turn
around and think to themselves, “I’ve done my bit – it’s up to them now”.
Wrong. Taking the soft option is no longer acceptable and members are responsible
for their own action or inaction. In some instances, by not taking immediate action
which could have resulted in stopping an offence taking place, a person may also
commit either a civil or criminal offence.
Same when a member believes on reasonable grounds that another member is suffering
from a mental illness that may affect their ability to be in possession of a firearm(s).
Mandatory reporting is now in place in all States and Territories for everyone that
becomes aware of anyone that may cause danger to themselves or another with a
firearm – the person MUST inform authorities of their belief and information and the
last thing that anyone wants to see is someone hurt themselves or another.
The last is something that is going to affect all of us at some time. The ACTA has an
aging population that participate in our sport. Some members have come to an age
at which they may no longer be safe to be in possession of firearms on a clay target
range. If a committee is of this belief it is better to take the person aside and/or place
competition restrictions on them rather than have an accidental discharge, and have
injury or worse occur to another competitor, spectator or official. A restriction on one
shooter has occurred in one State and as a result everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
I can hear the carpark discussion now – however it is something that needs to be
brought into the open and members (and committees) shouldn’t bury their heads in
the sand. If one person is saved from injury (or worse) then this article is worth it.
As I have said numerous times before – everyone’s a friend – until something
goes wrong. That’s when people dive for cover and unless you risk mitigate at all
times you may be left out in the cold.
I hope everyone has had a great month competing or shooting!
Stay safe!

Executive Officer’s Report
On behalf of all members I wish to commend and congratulate all
of our athletes selected for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
My information suggests the team as a group were very close and the
support of each of those members was an important factor in the
success of the Team.
To Laura Coles (Gold Medal Ladies Skeet), Laetisha Scanlan (Gold
Medal, Ladies Trap) and Adam Vella (Gold Medal Men’s Trap)
our congratulations on your Gold medal success. It is one of those
moments where we as members can celebrate the success of our
members on the International stage. Many Club members who shoot
purely for enjoyment can relate to those who have reached one of
the pinnacles of the sport. We congratulate all of those “member
bodies” including Pistol and Rifle who also had success on the ranges
in Glasgow.
The National ISSF Championships will be conducted at the Newcastle
Port Macquarie range in January 2015, so the focus of the ISSF
community is now on selection for the Olympic team in Rio in 2016.
Our athletes success at Commonwealth Games level is no guarantee
of success in the future, however looking at all of the athletes who
were selected to attend the Commonwealth Games and those who
have represented at World Cups and other international events as
well as those who were close to selection for the Commonwealth
Games and those still coming through the system. The future looks
bright for our sport at the 2016 Olympics.
The National Ground is being continually improved with engineers
retained to provide a report on drainage required on the ground
to channel water from the ground in low lying areas to the current
drainage channels. The report is expected in time for works to
commence in 2015. The ground will also have added three ball
traps to facilitate ball trap competition as well as training facilities
for ISSF on the National ground. These traps should be in by
years end.
I can confirm that a Stakeholder Group will meet with NSW
Firearms in Sydney on 17th September at the Sydney Police Centre.
I will attend the meeting as the representative of the ACTA following
an invitation from NSW Firearms. This meeting will provide
feedback and recommendations to the branch whilst ultimately
passing through to NSW Government Ministers. Having a voice in
NSW is extremely important for the Association with the National
Ground located in Wagga Wagga. We have in the past experienced
some frustration at changes to legislation and clarification of
legislation in what can be seen as very grey areas. The meeting will
also allow first hand clarification of issues relevant to the industry,
particularly in respect to ranges, licensing, arms fairs conditions
etc. This will also give us a voice in relation to legislation on gun
ownership and storage. Having a direct link will ensure our strong
relationship with the NSW Firearms Branch will continue to develop
for the betterment of the sport.
Tony Turner
Once again to our team, gold medallists and all involved,
Congratulations.

FRONT COVER
Overall NSW Skeet
Carnival High Gun,
Michael Buttigieg.
Michael finished
the Carnival
shooting 342/350.
NSW State Skeet Carnival
AUGUST 2014
This year’s tournament saw its return to the National/NSW
State grounds in Wagga Wagga. Participation was up by 20%
over last year with a total of a 109 entries making this one of
the largest NSW Skeet State titles on record.
The tournament was again
privileged by the presence of
John Shima from the famed
Bender Shima Shooting Clinic
who generously provided his time
to meet and greet the shooters
and provide coaching tips over
the 3 days of the tournament.
Thank you to Wayne Peterson for
arranging Johns visit and John for
his generous offer and I hope you
all had an opportunity to catch
up with him.
Michael Buttigieg from Victoria
emerged the ultimate winner
and concluded his successful
tournament by also winning the
tournament High Gun. Michael
was also a member of both the
two and three member winning
teams.
As is the case at this time of the
year in Wagga we started our days
a little on the cool side.
NSWCTA would like to thank all
their sponsors and everyone who
assisted at the carnival: particularly our Shoot Marshall Sue Pim,
IT Professional Frank Auditore,
State Secretary Kathleen Dawe,
Handicapper Alison Harwood,
and NSW Handicapper Janene
Schiller. Unfortunately our
State trap mechanic Fred Rapley
was admitted to hospital with
Pneumonia the day before the
tournament started. Fred has now
been released from hospital and
is continuing to recover. I would
like to also thank those who
helped fill Fred’s shoes during the
tournament and the shooters for
understanding the situation.
Friday saw the start of the small
gauge events, David O’Sullivan
took out the 20 gauge, Matt
Fallon from New Zealand duplicated his win from last year in 28
gauge event and Shane Bennett
finished the day by winning the
410 title. 14 year old junior Aislin
Jones also started to stamp her
dominance in the junior division
taking all three events along with
the ladies and A grade in the 28
gauge event.
Saturday saw a cool start to
the Doubles with a frost on the
ground. Ben Garraway won
the event and was awarded the
“Rooke Family Perpetual Trophy”.
The Handicap went to Queenslander Glenn Walker.
Sunday saw three 99’s shoot off
for the 100 target NSW State
Title, Matt Fallon, Lawrence
Rodden and Michael Buttigieg.
Aislan Jones continued her
display of dominance by winning
the Junior State Title, Junior High
Gun, Ladies High Gun and
A Grade High Gun.
NSW Clay Target Association
looks forward to seeing you all
next year at the National shooting
grounds in Wagga.

The Squire reports from West Wyalong
The fourth Sunday in
July could not have been
better for the West
Wyalong Clay Target
Club to be holding the
Central Zone Sporting
Clays 100 Target
Championship although
some visitors had to
travel through fog before
seeing blue sky at West
Wyalong.
An enthusiastic group made
up of Pat Mulqueeny, Bruce
Dent, Graham Duncan,
Jason Anderson and Allan
Schirmer had been out the
previous week and spent
time tidying up the grounds
so that everything would be
in readiness on the day.
They also set two interesting and
challenging layouts which would test the
experienced shooters but also give the less
experienced shooter some encouragement.
CZ Sporting Clays Team: L-R: Mick Munro, Peter Rae & Laurie Redfern
Left: VP Jason
Anderson with
CZ Sporting
Clays Champion
Peter Rae
Pat Brettschneider have a chat to shooters
around the grounds.
As usual, Angie Dent looked after the inner
shooter at lunch and again for afternoon
tea. Thanks Ang.
The targets thrown and the layouts elicited
quite a number of favourable remarks from
visiting shooters.
At a reasonably early hour Vice President,
Jason Anderson called everyone to the club
room to announce the results of the shoot.
Ron Spedding from Parkes had sent over his
specialised “springing teal” trap and as usual
Laurie Redfern had his trap mounted in the
back of his ute to throw an overhead target.
The Central Zone Sporting Clays Champion
for 2014 winning Overall and A Grade was
Peter Rae 89/100. Peter Munro 87/100,
one of several Wagga visitors shot well to
win AA Grade from Max Kavanagh 85/100.
Robert Yeo 88/100 ran second to Peter Rae
in A Grade. Young Emilene Munro 86/110
won a shoot off against fellow field and
game shooter, and equally as young, Tom
McGrath 83/110. Well shot! After a bit of
a mix up in the C Grade results Garry Brill
and John Rourke have been declared joint
winners and Jason Anderson 59/100 was
second. Rebecca Wilesmith 61/100 came
over from Temora to win the Ladies’ section
while Bruce Irvine 78/100 was the Veteran
winner.
Jason Anderson finished the presentation
by thanking everyone and announcing the
Central Zone Team as being Peter Rae, Mick
Munro for the fourth consecutive year, and
Laurie Redfern.
Graham Duncan and Jason also loaned
traps which were on standby in case of a
break down. Thanks guys.
Organisers were thrilled when six squads of
visiting and local shooters were marshalled
to cycle through the layouts.
As well as being a championship the Central
Zone Sporting Clays team to compete at the
New South Wales state titles in 2015 was to
be chosen following the event.
As the scores came in and were posted on
the board it was obvious that Peter Rae
24/25 and Peter Munro 23/25 were shooting
very well although they were being hounded
by a host of other competitors in the low
20’s.
A shoot such as this requires excellent
organisation and Clive Foster and Don
Turner kept the office absolutely humming
and shooters were prompt in scoring and
refing making it a trouble free shoot.
Trying clay target shooting for the first time
Jordan Hoskinson, from Kikoira enjoyed
his day and it was good to see Geoff and

VCTA North West Zone Coaching Day
Mildura Clay Target Club – July 12
In line with the VCTA State Coaching
program the North West Zone conducted a coaching day in July at the
Mildura Clay Target Club.
The Zone decided to run the coaching day
in Mildura to give support to our far northwest section, as opposed to the normal central
location for these days. Unfortunately the
distance of Mildura from other Zone clubs
affected the number of students who were
able to attend.
Although disapointing that only juniors from
the Mildura surrounds took part, the clinic
proved very successful. The 13 juniors who
attended all agreed that the coaching day
was a great success and that they had gained
a great deal of information from the coaches.
Coaches on the day: Gary Hayden, Jim Shepherd, Gary Pike, Craig Kelly, Colin Dunn and Larry Dimasi
The Mildura Club would like to thank the
VCTA State Coaching Director Gary Hayden
who travelled from Noorat to assist on the
day, Jim Shepherd (Level 3), Craig Kelly (NWZ
Delegate), and Colin Dunn (NWZ President).
Mildura would also like to thank our members
for their work in the preparation and for their
assistance during the day.
Special thanks to Karen Barnes and Stacey
Cullinan for catering.
Just a reminder – Mildura is hosting the North
West Zone Carnival on Saturday October 4th
and a NWZ Continental shoot on Sunday the
5th. For more information see page 53 of this
issue.
We look forward to seeing you.

There will be a payment option as at the 1st November, you can
tick the check box to confirm your details and immediately pay
by credit card. Your payment will be processed directly to the
ACTA. The National Office will then disburse all payments back
to the Club, Zone and State (as applicable). You will be able to

Swan Hill Classic 2014
Sunday the 17th August saw the annual Swan Hill Classic
with 37 shooters competing in difficult conditions. It was
a cold windy Mallee day that got warm at times and then
returned to cold with a strong lazy wind. We have had a
lot of frosts lately with beautiful days following, however
this was not the case on Sunday. The breeze made it a very
challenging program. Of course the wind dropped as the
second event finished.

It was especially pleasing for Luke Tyson who won C grade as it was his
first win and first sash. Well done.
Cohuna shooter Les Comensoli off 19 metres took out first place in the
50 target handicap event and won $500 cash for his good shooting.
Moulamein shooter, Wayne Upton once again proved hard to beat and
won AA OA in the second event which was a 50 target points score
championship with a score of 143/150. Well done to both.
The Swan Hill Clay Target Club would like to thank the sponsors

COBAR SHOOTER WINS
MAFEESH MEMORIAL HANDICAP TROPHY
With a field of 146 shooters, and deteriorating cold rainy
conditions, Cobar C Grade shooter Thomas McBride
managed to outshoot many experienced and talented
competitors to win the coveted “Mafeesh Memorial
Handicap Trophy”, sponsored by the Singleton Family.
Goes to show that ‘dust kickers’ can also be good ‘mud
runners’! Well done Thomas.
The Mafeesh Handicap is event
6 on the three day Golden Clay
& NSW Jnr Masters Championship programme hosted by Cobar
Clay Target Club on 15th,16th &
17th August. Attached to this
event is the popular Calcutta
which generates excitement and
enthusiasm by spectators and
shooters alike, which made it all
the sweeter for McBride to win.
Included in the field of competitors was a strong contingent
of junior shooters from Farrer
Memorial Agricultural High
School in Tamworth, all
h Handicap contesting the NSW Junior
Thomas McBride – Mafees
Masters Championship events.
The most successful of their team was Kai Barlow winning the Points
Score event with 92/93 and the Double Barrel event with 197/198, and
Brendon Watt winning the Single Barrel with 30/30 and also taking out
the Champion of Champions with 149/150. Both these juniors are AA
grade shooters and will be a force to be reckoned with in the near future.
Competitors from Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and far reaches
of NSW travelled for the weekend shooting, all enjoying the warm
friendly hospitality for which Cobar Clay Target Club is renowned.

Kempsey CTC – 19th July
Unfortunately the normally warm and
sunny north coast weather let us down
for the William Saul Memorial Shoot. It
proved to be a cold and windy day.

Front L-R Jnr A Ballarino, Lad D Colls, Vets M McGill
The shoot consisted of 100 targets Points Score off
15m. However the strong winds added an unintended element of continental to the shoot. Having
said that though, all the shooters that I spoke to
really enjoyed the conditions as it tested their concentration and shooting ability.
As we are acutely aware, when awaiting our turn
to shoot, we are required to stand still, make no
noise that might distract the person shooting. But,
because of the difficult conditions and the way
the targets were flying, members of the squad I
was shooting in were unable to suppress laughter
and comments from time to time. I realise the
purists out there will be horrified to read this
but from my point of view the good natured
comments added to the day and contributed to
a very relaxed, pleasant and fun day’s shooting,
and isn’t that what it is all about.

The Saul family is to be congratulated and thanked
for the contribution they make to produce such a
successful shoot. Also as usual, our thanks must
go to Ted, Robin and family for all the hard work
they do to make the monthly Kempsey shoot run
so smoothly. Our thanks to shooters who helped
fill traps, set up and at the end of the day, pack up.
Some of the workers were shooters from visiting
clubs and we really appreciate your help.
We enjoyed the company of shooters from
Cessnock, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour and

enjoying some quality time touring the North

Psychological Skills
for Shooting
Michael Kruger-Davis
CONFIDENCE
I am currently involved in an Organisational
Psychology coaching course for leaders and
managers. I have recently started a new job
that is a serious promotion on what I have been
doing in the past. I no longer have a clinical
role and I am now more focused on developing leaders in schools and developing teacher
capacity to cope with learning difficulties,
behavioural disorders, disabilities, etc.
The basics of sport psychology grew out of work in the organisation
psychology field, so there is a logical extension from one area to the other.
I have to give a presentation to the Southern Sports Academy next week
and the focus will be on recognising and developing self-confidence.
Over the years of writing these articles, I have examined the idea of mental
toughness, which is defined as the set of behaviours and beliefs about
yourself, your work, your sport, and how you interact. I outlined seven
characteristics of mental toughness; being competitive, confident, in
control, committed, composed, courageous and consistent.
Within the workplace the characteristics of mental toughness are also
important. In this article I want to revisit the concept of confidence.
So what is self-confidence? Patrick Cohn from Peaksports defines selfconfidence as how firmly you believe in your ability to execute a physical
skill or perform a task. Confidence, according to Cohn, comes from a
baseline assessment of past performances, training, and preparation.
As your competency or skill mastery grows, your confidence becomes
proportionally stronger, which is strengthened more with successful
training and quality practice.
The following is a list of sources of self confidence. Rank the following from
1 to 10 (adding others if I have missed an important aspect of your own).
• Past successes in your sport
• An effective training program
• Immediate performance
• Positive comments from others
• Supportive people in your life
• Training or quality practice
• Quality coaching
• Optimistic coaching
• Belief in your physical talent
• Your own method or technique
• The quality of your equipment
• Level of your competition
• Warm up routine
• Comfort with the environment
• Mental preparation
• Performance review
• Mental game coaching
• Coping well under pressure
• Good teamwork
• Positive rapport with teammates
• Positive rapport with coach
• Trust in teammates
• Sports diet, hydration, etc
• Fitness level or conditioning
• Other sports you have played
• Weather
• Game plan or strategies
16
AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2014
On a separate piece of paper, write down the top 5 sources of confidence
that are under your control. Focus on what you can control to boost your
confidence. Remember that what people say about your performance is
not under your control.
Now that you are able to recognize the sources of confidence then it is
also important to be able to recognize when confidence is dwindling. The
biggest factor limiting confidence is self-doubt. I have written several
articles over the years on self-doubt, and if readers need to revise, then
go back over old issues or read “The Inner Game of Golf” by Tim Gallwey,
which puts the whole idea of self doubt into perspective. Self-doubt is
the opposite of self-confidence and it kills momentum, and stops athletes
performing well because they are scared they will fail.
Self-doubt can be developed by a set of unhealthy and irrational beliefs
about yourself and life in general. These beliefs include the following:
1. Strict expectations: “I can’t make any mistakes if I want to win.” What
happens here is, is that you try to hard and tense up. You become less
fluid and your unable to move and swing the way you should.
2. Negative self labels: “I’m a poor finisher.” This focuses you mind on
negative judgements about past performances and takes you away
from the here and now.
3. Over-generalisations: “I don’t do well on this course.” Again you are
focusing on the past and ignoring what you should be focusing on,
which is the present.
4. Perfectionism: I need to be perfect. This is impossible and will lead to
the following behaviours that will further undermine your self-confidence:
• Setting unrealistic goals and strict expectations
• Dwelling on shortcomings and failures
• Worrying about past mistakes
• Being too self-critical
• Comparing yourself to others
• Overanalyzing your performance
• Viewing your performance as either good or bad
• Measuring your self worth against your sporting success
• Focusing on future gains instead of playing in the present.
Now that you can recognize the sources of self-confidence and you can
identify those irrational beliefs that get in the way and produce self-doubt.
There are five steps to seeing yourself as a winner:
Firstly, write down three positive self-labels that positively describe you in
your sport, which you can truly believe.
Secondly, post these descriptions on your mirror, fridge, desktop, etc
where you can see them every day.
Thirdly, Strive to identify and discard any negative labels that others have
given you or that you have made up yourself. Write them on a piece of
paper, crumple the paper, and throw it away with authority.
Next, When speaking to others about yourself or your abilities, use the
positive self labels you have formulated with confidence. (Avoid deliberate
outward displays of cockiness because people who lack confidence will
view it as arrogance.)
Finally Goal: feel cocky on the inside while appearing humble on the
inside.
By using the previous five steps, identifying the sources of your confidence and recognizing the negatives that get in the way, you will be on the
way to being more self-confident which is an important aspect of mental
toughness.

OCTOBER 2014 – AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET NEWS
19
Ellis only needed to shoot 74 targets to win the
National Double Barrel. And even the median
figure of 200 was not exceeded for another five
years until 1980 when the infamous “malfunctioning factory shell” debacle involving Doug
Smith and Russell Mark ended at 349. The
moral of the story? Knee jerk reactions hardly
ever shine under the light of hindsight!
OCTOBER
2014
Don’t forget the weather
Cuzzog’ss
Ramblin
In my last couple of columns I have elaborated
upon a number of the things that occurred
at this year’s Trap Nationals These included
the practical problems we have encountered
with the Double Barrel shoot-off over the
last few years. As I am deeply concerned that
the National Executive may eventually come
up with a solution that hindsight might not
necessarily view as appropriate or astute
(read Handicap Event), I offered my thoughts
on what I thought was the best way to move
forward with this pivotal event without
destroying the historical integrity of it. This
month I want to follow that up from other
perspectives.
Crystal Ball
For a start I am not absolutely convinced that
the “problem” is here to stay. Just because we
have seen this event run to around a thousand
targets for each of the last three years does not
necessarily mean that this will now automatically become the norm. Admittedly we now
have a handful of people who look as though
they may be able to do this from time to time,
but there is no guarantee that all the necessary
pieces of the puzzle will continue to defy the
odds and all fall into place at the same particular time and point in space. The fact that
Murphy’s Law has been thwarted thus far
does not mean that the rubber band currently
restraining it will continue to stretch forever.
Lessons from history
I’m sure that some famous ancient philosopher
is credited with devising the correct answer
to the age old question of “Why do we study
history?” And that answer is “To try to prevent
us from repeating our mistakes.” The history
of ACTA trapshooting is not exempt from this
concept. Prior to 1974 the National Double
Barrel had ticked along with an average annual
winning score of somewhere around 200 and
a record high of 370. However that year saw
a unique clash of the Titans when the battle
between Warren Charlton and Vin Ryan was
not settled until 620 targets had been shot.
This was possibly due to the fact that both
men were by then firmly established as “top
shots” and thus calm under pressure and that
both had previously won this most prestigious
event. Twice before in Warren’s case.
20
Vin Ryan and Warren Charlton – Not just two
absolute legends of our sport, but also two of
the nicest blokes you’d ever want to meet
Timing is everything
Following this an outcry ensued that Double
Barrel shooting had become too easy and the
timing of this could not possibly have been
worse. Australia had been allocated the World
Moving Targets Championships in 1973 and so
Olympic Trap shooting had recently become
the flavour of the month. A vocal minority
were already advocating the demise of Trap
Shooting in its historically established form
and converting it into a breeding ground for
Olympic Trapshooting by merging the rules.
Where angels fear to tread
This eventually culminated in our rules going
into a gradual downward spiral and gravitating towards ISSF standards, a travesty which
was not corrected until relatively recent times.
However the very next year, in 1975, Jimmy
As the National Shoot Marshall, I have obviously had an excellent vantage point for
scrutinising this shoot-off over the last few
years. And I can assure you that each and
every one of the eventual finalists has gotten
away with some very scratchy seconds on each
occasion. A few extremely minor dimensional
shifts could have easily seen us wind up each
of these events a long way earlier than we
eventually did. And we haven’t had a windy
day thrown into the mix lately! It would
only need some blustery conditions on qualifying day and we could easily get a situation
where none of the “usual suspects” even make
the cut and the winner could still have some
handy loose change left out of his first case of
shells.
A similar solution?
Skeet shoot-offs have run into similar
problems in recent times and we have had to
devise ways to attain more expedient outcomes
in certain circumstances. However we have
been fortunate in that common sense has
prevailed and the implementation of format
changes has not been regimentally mandated.
A degree of flexibility has been allowed to not
just the administrators but even to the competitors themselves who can initiate format
changes. This can even occur mid round,
by mutual consent if they believe that such
changes are not only in everyone’s best interests, but also do not detrimentally affect either
the equity of that particular event or the historical integrity of the sport in general.
Don’t forget equity
In this way we avoid the undesirable situation
where a shoot-off containing two seasoned
AA shooters and a B grader having a “day
out” are forced to shoot doubles at
3, 4 & 5, which would effectively see
the grade shooter “hung out to dry”.
I remain hopeful that any similar
format changes that our sport’s governing body may envisage for our
premier event are implemented in a
similarly common sense oriented and
flexible manner so that our heritage
incurs the least amount of damage in
order to attain the required practical
objectives. I have always said that the
job of the Executive is to provide the
Tournament Director and the Shoot
Marshall with the necessary “tools”
In a scathing report that he wrote in the CTSN, then ACTA
and then allow them to use those tools
Executive Director Noel Southey understatedly described Russell
when and as they may be required
Mark as “perplexed” as Doug Smith is delivered the bad news,
for each individual situation on its
effectively ending one of the greatest Double Barrel shoot-offs
merits.
of all time
AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2014
Depends how you look at it
Looking at it from a different perspective, is
the “problem” really a problem? Personally I
don’t think so. Quite the opposite actually!
Clearly at your local Gun Club on a Saturday
afternoon an extended Double Barrel shoot-off
can have numerous disadvantages, including
the financial wellbeing of the club. Creative
and expedient solutions are clearly appropriate here. But does the National Double Barrel
really need to be finalised on day one before a
second slab of bullets is torn open?
Free entertainment
What’s the matter
with the shoot-off
spilling over to the
second or even a
third day? Provided
Shoot Management
has the necessary
“tools” to precipitate a result before
dark on the third
day, I see it as a
wonderful annual
opportunity. A
chance for the “Big
Guns” to not only
show how good
Jimmy Ellis won the
they really are, but
National Double Barrel
to also provide us
twice. In 1970 local
hero John Harris pushed
with a fantastic
him to a new record
spectacle in the
score of 370, but in
process. And for
1975 he only needed to
those who disagree
shoot 74 targets to win
the event.”
I say “Don’t Look
Ethel”. Go and play
cards or go shopping or just plain “go away”
and stop raining on our parade.
Nationals Badges
Most years a special badge is struck to
commemorate each of the Trap and Skeet
Nationals. Recently I was handballed a formidable mission. Locate one particular badge
from bygone days. The Skeet Nationals were
held in Perth in 1987 for the first time and
that’s the missing item. If anyone out there
has one they can spare or can offer any helpful
advice, I would be most appreciative. Please
phone me on 0418-516395.
This Month’s Trivia Question
Since Jimmy Ellis did it in 1975 only one
other person has managed to win the
National Double Barrel with a score of
less than 100 and that was Larry Dimasi in
1982. Ironically the Runner-Up on both
these occasions was the same person. However in between these two inauspicious
performances, he also managed to win the
event. Name this very famous and colourful
character. E-mail your answers to cuzzo@
a1.com.au before the 15th of October and the
first correct one drawn will get a complimentary entry to one National Championship
event of your choice during the next twelve
months.
Third Round of FIMA Handicap Shield
BEGA GUN CLUB – AUGUST 2014
The third round of the Fimac Engineering Handicap Shield was the feature
event of the August shoot at Bega Gun Club. Twenty-five hardy souls turned
up on a beautiful, crisp, sunny morning, numbers being slightly down due
to the two day event at Cowra, which a number of members traditionally
attend.
The program opened with a 25 target Double Barrel eventt
shot from a common mark. B Graders, Craig Field and
Robert Taylor shot possible as did A Grader, John Siede. After
a brief shoot off, Craig took B
Grade, 31/31 with Robert on
30/31, runner up. John Siede
took A Grade, second went
to Kevin Hurt with a score
of 23/25. In AA grade, Fimac
o
ssponsor, Shane Platts shot
224/25 to win from Alf Niesar,
223/25. C grade saw places

scored 144/150 to win AA Grade,
with Shane Platts featuring again in

AUSTRALIAN CLAY TARGET SHOOTING NEWS – OCTOBER 2014
MATHOURA SHOOTS IN THE RAIN
Friday the 25th of July and the heavens opened and down
came the rain, possibly putting off some shooters from
attending the night shoot at the Mathoura Gun Club, but
there were still ample competitors
to make it a successful nights competition. Fairly uncomfortable for
the shooters with quite heavy rain
at times, but with a fire outside,
the clubhouse heated, and plenty
of hot food and drink available,
there were very few complaints if
any about the shoot.
The first event was a Night ten target
Points Score Cash Divide, and two
shooters managed a full 30/30 score,
being Bill Simpson (Mathoura) and Euroa
member Laurie Fitzpatrick, and they both
shared the 1st place cash.
by Bill Simpson on a score of 59/75, and Mathoura member Tom
McClusky, having scored a 51/75, put out his hand for the 1st in
C Grade trophy.
Th
The last event was again a Victorian North East Zone Championship,
a 15
1 pair, Night Double Rise, and by this time the rain was reasonably
he
heavy and constant, so good scores were going to be impossible, but to
their credit all shooters competed,
and after it was shot, Les

Woodhouse Wins First
Tumut Championship
Wagga Wagga’s Ben Woodhouse has been a regular competitor at Tumut Clay Target Club, the last three as a AA
grader, but in all that time he has never been an overall
winner. That was until the Tumut August shoot when he
finally won through, taking the Double Barrel Championship after he defeated fellow club member Rob Yeo.
Woodhouse & Yeo were the only shooters to return a
perfect 50/50 in the qualifying round.
L-R: Phil Green OA Cont, Robert Yeo HG
& Ben Woodhouse OA DB
Woodhouse and Yeo along with Tumut secretary Phil Green were
the best in the continental championship, all returning 49/50. The
chance to make it two overall’s on the same day for Woodhouse
disappeared with Green outlasting the Wagga Wagga pair in the
shoot off.
As part of Tumut’s prize pool, there is always a trophy for the best
unplaced Veteran, Lady & Junior if there are 3 or more competitors. August was no exception, with all sections in operation. First
time Junior shooter Ben Lonergan took the Junior Trophy. Ben was
recently introduced into clay target shooting as part of the Tumut
Clubs “Come and Try Clay Target Shooting Day” – a great outcome
for Ben and Tumut Club.
Seasoned Veteran Tom Sutton was the best of the unplaced Veterans
on 84/100 after a number of his fellow veterans featured in the
winner’s circle during the afternoon. Junior Lady shooter Amy Smith
of Boorowa topped the honours in the “best unplaced awards” at
88/100. Amy was especially pleased with her win in so much as
beating fellow club veteran Tom Sutton - well done Amy, we’re sure
you will give Tom more hidings in the future.

Queensland ISSF Carnival
It was great to see unprecedented numbers across all the ISSF disciplines
at our State carnival in July. Team members representing Queensland
in Skeet and Trap, including Women’s and Junior Trap teams, all shot
qualifying scores to represent our State at the 2015 Nationals. Well done
to all participants and thanks to the Brisbane Gun Club for hosting this
event again this year.
Coaching
Coaching sessions across all four Zones continue to be extremely well
attended with those held in recent months being no exception. 35 shooters
arrived at Silkwood Clay Target Club over the weekend of 21st & 22nd
June to pick up some DTL tips from our State coaching team of Richard
Morrison, Daryl Stevens and Bill Allan. Well done to the Silkwood
members for conducting this session and the coaches would like to thank
Peter and Leanna Robson for their kind hospitality during their visit.
On 19th July the Gold Coast Clay Target Club also played host to 13
shooters interested in improving their skeet scores. State skeet coach
Laurie Sceresini enlisted the help of respected veteran Neal Dimmick to
assist both new and experienced shooters.
We thank all our coaches for their time and willingness to share their
knowledge to assist other shooters and their services are greatly appreciated by all those attending coaching clinics.
Junior Achievements
There is a growing list of junior shooters getting our attention in the
results of many major shoots throughout Queensland. Condamine’s
Steph Pile top scored in the Women’s team at the State ISSF Carnival
recently with Erin Stewart from Kingaroy also making 1st reserve. At
our State Trap Carnival in May two of the four grade High Gun winners
were also juniors with Melbourne’s Mitchell Iles winning AA and
Antony Ballarino from Port Denison taking A grade. At the same carnival
Springsure’s Tori Powell shot well to qualify for the Ladies postal team
and Jackson Willmann from the Gold Coast not only made the State
open team but also won the open team High Gun. More recently Jackson
won overall High Gun from 158 other shooters at the GCCTC August
Carnival. If you have stories of up and coming junior shooters from your
club, please submit them to the QCTA so we can share the achievements
of our future champions.

VCTA NEZ School Students Championships
It would have been impossible to order a better day
weatherwise for the Victorian North East Zone, School
Students Championships, held at the Echuca Clay Target
Club on Thursday the 14th of August. A clear sunny sky,
just the slightest hint of a breeze, and that allowed the 200
plus students to register some really excellent scores.
After all the students had shot at twenty
targets, in single barrel mode, and
without the need for a shoot off, Bendigo
Senior Secondary College lass, Laura
Woolley, had missed just one target,
and as no other student could match
that result, Laura’s 19/20 made her the
Overall winner on the day. Magnificent
shooting Laura!
After several shoot offs, including all
who had registered an 18/20 score, the
final winners and placegetters were
all organised. In the Senior Boys, the
y
winner was Murray Parton, a Nathalia

KERANG CLAY TARGET CLUB
JULY 13 2014
SIDE BY SIDE MEDLEY
On Sunday the 13th July
2014 the Kerang Clay Target
Club held its annual side by
side shoot.
This annual event considered by
some to be the premier event on
the Kerang shooting calendar was
contested by 35 shooters on a fine
and sunny day. Shooters attended
from far and wide including
Hamilton, Mildura, Robinvale,
Bendigo, Morwell, Harcourt,
Traralgon, Westmere, Streathham, Lascelles, Moulamein, Swan

guns from yesteryear by makers
such as James Purdey and Sons,
W.W Greener, William Powell,
William Cashmore, Cogswell and
Harrison, Army and Navy, Beretta,
FN, Lucchini and Winchester.
The first event was the Side by
Side Double Barrel Championship.
Sponsored by Wayne Clapham
Firearms and Repairs of Kerang.
This 50 Target Double Barrel
Championship saw no shooter
shoot a possible score due to
challenging conditions, however
Trevor Ewert using his William
Cashmore hammer gun only drop
one target and took out the Cham-
pionship with 49/50, followed
by Stephen Holdsworth using a
Lucchini 2nd place with 49/52
after a shoot off with Peter Akkerman’s with his trusty Beretta 3rd
48/52 with Wayne Upton using his
newly obtained Winchester model
23 4th 46/50.
First place in the Under and
Over section of the First Event
was Michael Kadziela with Garry
Cowling Second.
The second event was a 30 target
Double Barrel Points Score Championship sponsored by Hibbert’s
Machinery Kerang. This event
saw 4 shooters shoot the possible.
Cameron Browne was both the
overall and AA grade winner with
144/144 Stephen Holdsworth
Second with 143/144. Michael
Kadziela First in A grade with
114/117 Second Garry Cowling
with 94/99. Daryl Ewert First in
B grade with 89/90 Second Geoff
Manuel 83/90. First in C grade was
Glenn Wilkinson 87/90 Second
was Wayne Clapham 76/90.
Ladies was won by Toni Hogg and
the Veteran’s by Geoff Manuel.
The Kerang Clay Target Club look
forward to seeing all Side by Side
Shooters back in July 2015 for our
next annual side by side cham-
pionship event. Which will be in
conjunction with the Swan Hill
Clay Target Clubs annual side by
side championship to be held on
the following Sunday in July 2015.
Where a High Gun over the 2 side
by side championships will be
awarded.

Two Championships shot at Echuca
For their August shoot, the Echuca Clay Target Club held
two large target number Championships, one a 20 pair
Double Rise, the other a 100 target Points Score, and that
total of 140 targets even on a cold miserable day that was
threatening to rain, attracted seven full squads of shooters,
making it a very successful shoot. The other attractions
were excellent trophies, and numerous traps, to keep the
shoot running smoothly, and finish at an early time in
these winter time short days.
The 20 Pair Double Rise Championship was first on the agenda, and
at the completion all places were decided without the need for any
shoot off’s, the Overall Winner was Echuca’s, Craig Fitzgerald, who
on this cold, windy, dull day, managed to
let just two targets escape, a magnificent
result on such a day, Craig also collected
the 1st place in AA grade trophy with his
38/40 score. 2nd in AA grade was taken
by another Echuca member, Patrick Callandro, who shot a 35/40 score. A grade
1st was Tony Plum 31/40, A 2nd Peter
Sing 30/40, B grade 1st was won by the
only B grade shooter present, Echuca’s
Andrew Callandro 28/40, C grade 1st
Carl O’Brien 28/40, and C grade 2nd was
Joshua Knight on a 25/40 result.

Next event was the big one, an 100 target
Points Score Championship, and again
two Echuca members taking out 1st and
2nd places in AA grade, Steve Traill shot
an excellent score of 291/300 making him
the Overall Winner, and also 1st in AA
grade, and Rhys Eeles with his 287/300
result was not far behind the winner to
become 2nd in AA grade, superb shooting
by both of these shooters on such a
shooter unfriendly day. Shane McCulloch
scored a 275/300 to earn the 1st in A
grade trophy, Darren Knight his 273
earning him 2nd in A grade, B grade 1st
was A Callandro, C grade 1st was colSteve Traill OA PS
lected by C Repacholi on a 246/300
result, C grade 2nd was C O’Brien with a score of 244/300, both these
C grade scores are very good considering the days conditions.
The last trophy to be presented was the encouragement award sponsored by Shepparton City Mowers, thanks to Russell Felmingham,
and it was Emma McCulloch an Echuca member who received the
packets of cartridges.
A well run shoot with a lot of very enthusiastic competitors, all performing well on the day, and even the presentations were all finished
by the early time of 4.30pm, giving travellers the chance to arrive
home at a respectable time.

ACTA NEWS
ACTA ACADEMY SELECTION
The ACTA Academy is a structured program for our
elite junior shooters. The ultimate aim is to further
develop these athletes in a range of areas so they may
achieve at the pinnacle of their chosen discipline.
When selecting talented athletes for further development there are two ways of doing this; taking
those athletes that have already risen to the top and
identifying those athletes with potential to rise to
the top. The ACTA Academy will select athletes in
2014 both ways through achieving automatic qualification from the National Championships and then
for the remaining positions through application to
the National Coaching Director.
The ACTA Academy will also have a Pathway for
athletes striving to join the ACTA Academy in future
years.
The ACTA Academy will be announced in October
each year after all of the National Events have
been completed. Each athlete will need to accept
the ACTA Academy terms and conditions prior to
announcement.
The ACTA Academy will consist of 12-15 athletes
each year, these athletes need to meet their discipline World Championship requirements as a junior
the following year – so that they may see out at least
one year as a junior e.g. in the year of competition
(2015) be under 21 years hence <20 years 31st Dec
2014.
AUTOMATIC QUALIFICATION
for the 2014/2015 ACTA Academy
For the 2014/2015 ACTA Academy squad automatic
qualification is by being the athlete with the highest
National High Gun Score from their chosen discipline and meeting the age and the grade perquisites
as outlined below.
APPLICATION for entry into
the 2014/2015 ACTA Academy
If you believe you are one of Australia’s elite or
pre-elite juniors and would like to be a part of the
ACTA Academy please fill in an application. Applications can be downloaded from the Coaching & Rules
section of the ACTA Website.
The application asks for D.O.B, current grade, discipline of choice, results and scores from major

clinics you have attended over the years. We also
want to know what your goals are for the future and
why you should be included in the ACTA Academy.
