Preparation of the grounds was of the usual high standard including the slashing of the background. Weather for the first day of Skeet was nothing short of a disaster with gale force winds and heavy rain and storms throughout the competition for the day, with obvious reflections on scores. John H. Byrnes LAURIE CONNORS It is with great sadness that I report that I have just heard that Laurie Connors passed away on Friday 23rd November. Laurie had been an active shooter and administrator of our sport for decades. He held a variety of influential positions in our sport and was National President in the early 1980’s. I am sure that shooters all over Australia are saddened by this news. Our thoughts go out to his family and the Mildura Clay Target Club, which was such a huge part of Laurie’s life. SKEET NATIONALS I have recently returned from the Skeet Nationals shot at Wagga Wagga. The numbers attending were down slightly from the previous year, but the standard of shooting certainly was not. The overall High Gun was won by Adrian Lucchitti who beat his older brother by one target, a fantastic effort. Congratulations to the South Australian skeet team who won the state team award. It would be remiss of me not to mention that 2 New Zealand shooters who also tasted success, well done Ray Everitt and Neil Thompson. Those in attendance appeared to enjoy the carnival and congratulations goes to all that were successful. A full report appears in the magazine. OCEANIC GAMES A large number of shooters have also recently returned from Hamilton, New Zealand after representing Australia at the Oceanic Titles. Congratulations to the following successful teams. Men’s DTL Women’s DTL Junior DTL Women’s Skeet Men’s ISSF Trap Junior ISSF Trap Individual Gold Medals were won by: Donna Follet – Women’s DTL Travis Vaina – Junior DTL Wendy Wellam – Women’s Skeet Russell Mark – ISSF Trap 2002 ISSF NATIONALS – CECIL PARK JANUARY 12-20 By the time you receive this edition of the magazine the ISSF Nationals at Cecil Park will be only about 3 weeks away. We hope the change to the holiday period will prove popular and that they are well supported. The Olympic range is a great venue to shoot at and we encourage you to come along and have a go. This National will be over the full traditional programme, including State teams and will include the National Training Squad selection. STATE CARNIVALS The Tasmanian Clay Target Association will be holding their State DTL on the 25th to 27th January. This usually is a well-attended and popular carnival. The following weekend February 1st –3rd will see the South Australian DTL carnival also held. I am sure that those who follow these carnivals will enjoy both events. WORLD CUP FINAL As most of you realise the World Cup Final is due to be held at Quatar was postponed for 3 months because of the volatile International crisis. This event is now due to be held January 25th to February 1st. We wish those Australians who have been invited and who choose to attend every success at the prestigious event. 2002 REGISTRATIONS The majority of shooters have already renewed their registration for 2002. If you have not the cost is $68 for full membership and $38.50 for second family member and veterans. Junior registration costs are $16.50.

Page 6 Australian Clay Target Shooting News January 2002 8th Australian Masters Games Newcastle Lake Macquarie Clay Target Club The Newcastle Lake Macquarie Clay Target Club hosted the Clay target section of the 8th Australian Masters Games from the 5th 14th October. With 600 targets and three disciplines the foundation had been set for a fabulous six days of competition and even bad weather would not dampen the enthusiasm. Saturdays down the line events started in fine, breezy condition and 50 shooters took to the tracks to vie for gold, silver and bronze medals in their 10 year age bracket. Although the competition was 50 target skeet (60 to 69 age) from left: Bronze David Mcleod (Sydney), Gold Tom harris (Tumut) and Silver Bill Pepper (Brooklyn). 50 target double barrel continental, from left: Silver Anthony Psaila(Melbourne), Gold Neal Gay (Singleton) and Bronze Gary Joass (Newcastle). not graded or handicapped there were some great tussles going on with shooters not only competing with others in their group but amongst all age brackets.

January 2002 Australian Clay Target Shooting News Page 7 Wednesday and the wind returned, if targets were allowed to fly past the centre post the high house target ducked and the low house target jumped making skeet shooting a real challenge. Despite the wind there were some very respectable scores with a few 48’s and Tom Harris with a couple of fine 49’s. It was great to meet and watch Alf Najar, at 82 years of age he certainly gained some attention, not only from other shooters but also the local media. Alf had a couple of telephone interviews and thankfully for Newcastle Lake Macquarie Clay Target Club and shooting in general Alf’s great nature and the way he presents himself I am sure led to a great half page photo on the sport section of the local rag. A combined shooting sports dinner was held at the club on Wednesday with a total of 75 adults and 5 children enjoying a catered spit roast dinner. 50 target skeet, from left: Graham Gosling, silver (Newcastle), Neil Newbury gold (Newcastle), Tony Psaila bronze (Melbourne) and Jim Barry, regional director Hunter Region Sport & Recreation presented medals. Thursday was another rest day with many of the visitors taking the chance to catch up with relatives and friends in the area and also to take in some of the fantastic attraction Newcastle and the Hunter Valley have to offer. Thursday was also an opportunity for us to finish setting up the field layout. Thanks to Frank Searles and his crew for a very interesting and challenging field. The members who were at the club Thursday would also like to thank Frank for his fly and bait casting lessons (it was our day off). by 9 am the breeze started to gust and continental shooting became very challenging with two of the trap houses needing a repaint. Everyone accepted the conditions and the events continued under the Masters Games banner of “SERIOUS FUN”. Thankfully Monday was a rest day, Chris Lindsay had to keep his dog inside his camper the wind was blowing that hard, he didn’t want to have his dog blown off it’s chain. Tuesday saw the wind die a bit, luckily there was no wind at 5.30 am so the traps were set in calm conditions. We all know skeeties can be a bit fickle about target trajectories and again the breeze conditions did make the targets play up but the shooters soldiered on. COACHING ACCREDITATION At the full Executive meeting in July 2001 a decision was made that a moratorium be run for a period of six months on coaching. The following exceptions are being offered during this period: 1) All coaches that have let their accreditation expire will be re-accredited on application. 2) Level one coaches who feel that they meet the requirements for Level 2 can apply through their respective State Associations for accreditation to Level 2. State Associations will then forward their applications and recommendations to the ACTA Coaching Council for approval. 3) Shooters who feel that they meet the requirements for Level 1 accreditation can apply to their respective State Associations. State Association will then forward their applications and recommendations to the ACTA Coaching Council for approval. This moratorium will run for a period of six months starting on 1 October 2001 and concluding on 31 March 2002. Questions on the moratorium can be directed to the Chairman Coaching Council, Mr. Gary Cassells, on 03 5461 4435. Page 8 50 target skeet and 70 + age bracket, from left: Kevon Moxey bronze (Narara), Alf NNajar gold (Mosman) and George Foster silver (Newcastle). Friday dawned fine and sunny (no wind at all) and the field shooters who struggled with down the line and then learnt to shoot skeet came to the fore. It was great to see people competing in events they had not shot before and we even had some new members who had never shot in a competition improving their score at every round. Congratulations to John Nichols from Mudgee for a fine display of field shooting. Saturday another perfect day and the targets changed slightly to give some variation, saw John Nichols again lead the way trying to lift the standard of a very average squad. Congratulations to all the winners especially Tom Harris from Tumut, who shot the highest score of 527 targets over the six days, well done Tom. A big thanks to all those who entered the masters games and made a success of the event. 11,000 competitors competed in 62 sports across Newcastle and the Hunter Region, a great atmosphere was felt right across the Hunter and anyone who was not a part of the games will not miss out next time. Finally I would like to thank all those who assisted in running our events, Sue, Shirley, Marree, Lynn and Lorraine in the kitchen; all those who helped set up, loaded targets, clean the bathroom and generally clean up. Thank you to Peter Petherbride and his builders for completing the new amenities and kitchen on time and we look forward to the office and storeroom being done in the near future. Australian Clay Target Shooting News January 2002 MARYBOROUGH TID BITS www.mctc.org.au A happy New Year to all, hope you had a great Christmas and had fun opening all those presents and hope you didn’t double up and get two guns. Now I want you to put two shoots in your diary now in 2002. First 6th October Master Games in conjunction with Heritage City one day shoot which will included the South East Zone D/B Continental Championship. Then 26th & 27th October we hold the South East Zone Carnival run by the South East management committee. This shoot will be he first two day shoot Maryborough has held that I know of since I joined the club. So don’t say you weren’t told soon enough. I will publish the program of both when I receive them. We have a couple of plovers who nest behind the trap houses they dodge pellets for one day, I don’t know what they will think of a two day. Monday 22 Oct Received a letter from CTSN who pointed out that MTB was mostly the same as club shooting results in the shoot results section and could I use email to send in my column. I think my used by date has arrived, so I am pulling the pin and will have time to smell the roses. I would like to thank the staff at the CTSN for decoding my letters, a good job for thirteen years. Also a big thanks to secretaries of near by clubs who have sent results rain, hail or sunshine, and the folks who sent in clean and dirty jokes some never cleaned up. It’s been a long road from leaving school half way in 6th grade in 1944 to take a job someone left to join the war. But I think the best days were breaking clays I would hate to pay for them all now. Writing MTB was good fun; we had a lot of laughs along the way. Thursday 25.10.01 The Day the Bible Came In the National Presidents Notes he talks of overseas trips, it is a shame that in the future we won’t be able to shoot in some of the places we shot in the past. Congratulations to Michael and winning teams at Lonato World Cup and thanks to team manager John. Once again “Your Say” is out of my comment. Also congratulations to Adam and the trap team at the World Cup Brazil 2001 in the safe hands of Greg Chan. And on page 20 at the Gold Coast Annual, by God you are a handsome fella Wes and a good shot. Good shooting Wes. Regardless of one “Your Say” I think CTSN was still a good read and well presented. Good job CTSN. Maryborough 28.10.01 Well in the kitchen were Pam, Betty and Kay. Thanks ladies we all love our ladies in the kitchen. Our visitor consisted of Brian Fourro, Ryan Howie, Spencer Plath (Bundy), Glen Durre, Lex & Bill Stolberg (Gympie), Tania Burke (Caboolture) also we had Yvonne & John Maxwell shooting with us. John is going to do some coaching while here and John also donated a shirt from the ISSF World Cup Lonato Italy, which was raffled, thank you John. It was won by Brian Fourro and the Quicky Board raffle was won by Lex Stolberg. Good luck to both. Thanks to our visitors which put us six squads for the day. In AA grade Tony Bradshaw shared DBCD and SB. John Maxwell share DBCD and overall and AA DBPTS C/S, Glen Durre Cont and AAGHG. In A grade Ryan Howie, Bill Stolberg, Warren Burke shared DBCD with Vince Dollinson who then took out the DBPTS C/S. Norm Dale SB, Cont and AGHG. In B grade Lex Stolberg and Dick Osbourne shared DBCD while Brian Fourro DBPTS C/S and Dick Osbourne BGHG. In C grade Trevor Cecil took out DBCD by himself and shot himself in the foot and went to B grade. Good shooting Trevor who still took out CGHG with Spencer Plath taking out DBPTS C/S SB and Cont. Maryborough Shoot 27th January program not drawn up yet, it could be DB, CD, PTS, H/C and Cont C/S. I said it could be the same as 2001. Bundaberg 4-11-01 When we arrived it was Sandra in the kitchen then Kaye. Thanks January 2002 ladies. Maryborough visitors to the shoot Jim Robinson, Glen McNeil, Tony McRae, Harry Walker and yours truly with new member Judd Clarke. Welcome to the club Judd, nice to meet you. Brian Charters drew the jackpot but let it jackpot, better luck next time Brian. And Lucky John Park won the raffle, I don’t know what the prize was, could have been a car or something. Peter and myself both shooting 24 in the single barrel decided not to have a shoot off as we most likely would have cost the club four or five hundred targets. So we settled for a split in the cash. Good thinking Peter. So in the next event the mixed Les and Gino was to shoot and again to save five or six hundred clays they split the cash. Chickens!!!!! So in AA grade Rob Rehbein took DBCD, PTS, SB, Mixed and OAHG. In A grade Kaye Rehbein, Gino Sergiacomi, Peter Winzen shared DB CD. Kaye then took points C/S and A grade while Norm Dale and Peter Winzen shared SB and Gino Sergiacomi and Les Moore shared mixed. In B grade John Park won DBCD and SB, Brian Fourro, PTS, Tim Gardener mixed. In C grade Brian Charters is DBCD, PTS, Tony McRae SB and Mixed. Bundaberg Shoot 6th January Check for time and program. At the shoot I had the pleasure of telling shooters at the bar it was my fifty first wedding anniversary. Well it saved them carrying the drinks and it reminded me of last year when I asked the boss for the day off. And he said “You have just had your holidays and that is the busy day”. And then he said “Alright have the day off for Warwick Outdoors & Sports Specialists in COMPETITION SHOTGUNS Distributors for Kemen Handmade Shotguns Stockists & Agents for Beretta, Remington, Perazzi, Winchester, Miroku, Rizzini Contact Greg Newey for advice & best prices on all Rifles, Guns, Cartridges and components AGENT FOR OLYMPIC & LA PORTE TARGETS 115 Palmerin St, Warwick Qld 4370 Phone 07 4661 3533 Fax: 07 4661 1419 Australian Clay Target Shooting News Page 9 your golden wedding anniversary but don’t think I am putting up with this day off every fifty years”. 5-11-01 MCTC Newsletter All items in this newsletter will be over by the time MTB is published.

Australian Clay Target Shooting News Page 11 CUZZO’S RAMBLINGS JANUARY 2002 Last month I wrote an article that contained travel advice specifically relevant to shooting trips. By the time I finished the first draft, I was way over the word-count the editor allows me each month for my column, because he believes there is definitely a limit to the amount of “Cuzzo’s Crap”, as someone so eloquently described it recently, that any one edition of the magazine can handle. However, I just hate to cut a long story short, so here is another instalment of that draft. ACCOMMODATION When most of us first start going away on shooting trips and need to arrange accommodation, the first and only option we generally consider is Motels. For short duration trips these are still probably the best choice, but for more extended periods, there are other options which can not only be more cost effective, but also sometimes more practical and convenient as well. In Australia I believe the best alternative is Holiday Apartments. With these you basically get a furnished house for not much more than a Motel room and by the time you split that four or five ways between a group of friends, rather than in half for a Motel room, the savings are obvious. Then you benefit even further by having all the amenities that a house offers over a Motel room, such as a kitchen, lounge room, laundry, garage and maybe even a backyard for parties and barbeques. When traveling to America, Hotels and/or Motels are again the best alternative for short stays and the only major difference you will notice between them and their Australian counterparts is the lack of even a small bar fridge in the rooms. For reasons I can’t figure out, fridges have never become standard equipment in even up-market American Hotels and Motels. The rooms are equipped with small plastic ice buckets and on each floor/block, as well as the lobby, they have large ice block making machines, from which you fill your ice bucket. I never did come to grips with this very “quaint” idea of trotting around the place with your little bucket in hand, looking for the ice machine and I think that the American Motel Owners Association should hold their annual convention in Australia one year, where they might just have their horizons expanded. However, when in the US, for any stays longer than one or two days, try a concept they are renowned for that is a halfway between a Hotel and a Motel, called a Serviced Apartment Complex. These specialise in medium term occupancies, which is just exactly what you want on a shooting trip. And when you combine this with their eagerness to offer weekly rates, they are definitely a much more cost-effective option than either of the more conventional alternatives. You’ll find that the rooms are generally very nice, at least on par with a Hotel or up-market Motel, yet offer the additional advantage of looking like an apartment ie full kitchen, large refrigerator, dining table etc. Other amenities usually include a Pool, Laundry, Security Service and Airport Shuttle Bus. Combined with all this, they also often provide a free buffet breakfast each morning in the dining room and sometimes even a free light dinner on weekday evenings. OPERATIONAL DIFFERENCES Whenever you attend a Shoot outside Australia, always obtain both a program and a rulebook and read them carefully before shooting, to prevent being caught out by “home rules” and/or other oddities. Back in the days when I was a half-handy Trap shooter, I once turned a pair of targets in the New Zealand National Double Rise into sooty black smudges in the sky, only to be duly and loudly scored “lost and lost” by a very officious little referee, whose belligerent attitude I shall never forget. Upon questioning this very surprising adjudication, said referee, who appeared to have a set against everyone and everything Australian, took great delight in informing me that it was because I had failed to advise him that I intended to shoot the left target first on lane number four. After a protracted discussion it emerged that the New Zealand Page 12 Rule Book did in fact contain this obscure provision. It had apparently been invented to ensure that if the referee could not see which target the competitor intended to shoot at first and was looking at the other target and the competitor dislodged only a small piece from the first target, he would not be deprived of the score. However, this character was intent on taking creativity to a whole new level with his interpretation of this rule, and no amount of pleading on my behalf by the other shooters and numerous spectators was going to deprive him of his prized Australian scalp. When they called me to shoot off for the Overall National High Gun a few days later, the memory of that pair of targets was still indelibly etched in my mind. Now maybe I’m thick, but I could never quite follow the thought process behind taking a rule that was clearly designed to enhance equity and technically reinterpreting it to effectively provide moral and material inequity. At such times, the only thing I’m sure of is that the Marquis of Queensberry would not have been impressed. Anyway, it was eventually the culmination of several such “memorable” experiences to both myself and others, over a long period of time, that resulted in my decision to take on the role of Shoot Marshall at our major tournaments. For the true sportsman, a sound but fair beating should be a character building exercise, but a good shafting will always be a bitter experience. However, rules differences and interpretations are not the only pitfalls. Often it can simply be unexpected procedural differences. On another occasion I saw an overseas competitor, who had broken a “possible” early in the day at the World Skeet Shoot, appear at the Shoot-off registration table punctually at 5.30pm that evening, only to find out that he had already been scratched as a no-show. He was unaware that the rules required him to report to the stadium field within 30 minutes of the end of his flight time to shoot the first round of the shoot off with all the other people who had shot possibles on that flight. As I watched him mentally calculate the “cost” of this minor technical oversight, I would say that devastated would be an understatement in describing his reaction. NSSA REFEREES At the World Skeet Shoot you never have to referee or score as paid professional referees are used. They take their job very seriously. They usually act very low key and will generally speak very politely to you, if at all, probably referring to you as “sir”. Do not misinterpret this as subservience. They are in charge of the field and what they say goes. They are also a very tight knit group. If you upset one of them, you may alienate yourself with all of them, as even the president of NSSA once found out to his detriment. After having to get members of the National Executive to pull for him for the rest of the week, I don’t think he ever “cussed” at another referee. Go out of your way to introduce yourself to them each time before you shoot. Make a little small-talk and be respectful and polite. It will not get you anything for free, but will make sure that they do not misinterpret or misunderstand you and get offside with you. Remember, they do not have a refusal rule in the US, so if you call for a target and the referee releases it, you would be well advised to shoot at it if you think that you can hit it, as otherwise, the next one you get may be your option. If you are unsure about anything, don’t try to bluff your way through it. Instead, feel free to ask the referee for assistance and advice. They will be happy to help if they can. Also, you only need to take 100 shells for the event as there are no “sighters” and he (or she) will give you a “proof shell” if you get a broken target or the like. AMERICAN SKEET AMMUNITION Three main brands are available at the World Skeet Shoot. They are Winchester, Remington and Federal. There is not a lot of difference in them from a performance standpoint and they all cost pretty much the same. Although 1 1/8 ounce loads are legal in the 12 gauge events, I recommend that you use the Winchester High Velocity 1oz load, as it is very similar to the shells we use here and Australian Clay Target Shooting News January 2002 will do a very good job. I used it to win the 12 Gauge World Championship in 1996. In the three smaller guns, I believe that Remington probably makes a marginally better shell than the other two and thus would recommend that you use them, except if you wish to sell the empty hulls, or bring them home for reloading, and then you would need to use Winchester. Also beware of cheap hunting loads made by the big three and sold through the larger department stores like Kmart, Wal-Mart etc. They are loaded with substandard components and light loads of soft shot. They’re OK for practice, provided you use a tight choke, but they are probably not worth the effort. Do not even think about using them in competition. TIPPING & GRATUITIES The service industries in the US operate differently to the way they work here. Wages are very low and overtime and penalty rates are almost non-existent. The whole system works on a “user pays” basis that assures the consumer of good service. The big trick for foreign visitors is to work out which are the “service people” who need tipping, and which are the “non-service people” who will be surprised and maybe even offended if you offer them a tip. As a starting point, always tip waitresses in restaurants, bellboys at hotels and baggage handlers at airports (but not the checkin staff). If in doubt, ask someone. You’ll get the hang of it after a while. The going rate is 10-15% of the bill or a minimum of $1.00. Do not attempt to tip anyone on the grounds of the World Shoot, especially the referees, however giving out any Australian trinkets will go over well with just about anyone at any time, so take a few pins, badges, hats etc with you. MANNERS & BEHAVIOUR Contrary to the rumours that circulate in Australia, American people in general tend to be very polite and courteous in their speech, actions, behaviour and their driving. Try to emulate this as firstly it makes for good international relations, secondly it will get you a lot further and thirdly they tend to be intolerant of people who are not equally as gracious as themselves. Refer to all male persons as “sir” and to all female persons as “mam” and use “thank you” a lot. Drive like a little old lady and don’t be surprised when people stop to let you in rather than cutting you off when you are driving. This month’s Shooting Trivia Question: What is the highest score ever shot to win a Trap Handicap event in Australia? Mail your answer to Shooting Trivia, P.O. Box 265, Bairnsdale 3875, to arrive by 20-01-2002. The first correct answer drawn shall receive a free entry to this year’s National Trap Handicap. The correct answer to November’s STQ is: The first person to shoot a 200 Skeet break in Australia was George Biggs, who broke a five year drought in the record by shooting 215 against the great Johnnie Summers at the Melbourne Gun Club in 1976. The first correct answer drawn was submitted by Glenn Clarke of Berwick in Victoria, who wins a free entry to this year’s National Skeet Doubles Championship 2002 Australian Pacific Grand Prix It is my great pleasure to announce that the Australian Pacific Grand with a new format of 225 targets of Olympic Trap and Skeet over three days from Friday 8th to Sunday 10th March, this years Grand Prix has continued on from previous years and has attracted interest from local and international competitors. Once again our ‘Top Gun’ friends from Japan have expressed an interest in attending. My advice to all local shooters is to get your deposit in and secure your place in the 2002 Grand Prix. This year the 225 target format comprises of the 100 target “Skins” event on Friday which gives shooters the opportunity to compete in one of the richest cash prize pools on offer in Australia, and the 125 target plus final Australian Pacific Grand Prix over the Saturday and Sunday. The Grand Prix is one of Australia’s premier ISSF events, which in the past has seen some of the worlds top shooters compete in the event. The event has given the ‘not so great’ shooters the chance to shoot beside the worlds best. With a high gun over the two events this years Grand Prix offers plenty for all shooters of all levels. So come and join us in Brisbane in March for a great long weekend of ISSF shooting.

Dear Editor; Firstly congratulations on publishing B Peters letter and I too had to reply. Mr Peters why don’t you tell us what you really think! Don’t you think that a mature adult would perhaps try to offer positive suggestions on how to improve the ACTA magazine and maybe even do something to make a stand and get on a committee instead of ridiculing and damming everything that the ACTA magazine represents to the many shooters. You really offended me not only because you insulted the many volunteers who send in articles you also insulted the ACTA staff. I am a committee person who is involved in this sport, plus as an advertiser who pays to advertise in this magazine and I personally try really hard to be positive by offering suggestions and pitching in to help when required but as a committee person we can only do so much to make changes to this magazine and web site. Did it occur to you to ring ACTA and speak with the friendly helpful staff and ask why the web site or email didn’t work or what happened with the printing. I did and got the right info. If the book is as bad as you say I was surprised you noticed any problem! Why do you bother getting it sent to you, surely ACTA could take a few dollars off you membership so you don’t have to torture yourself if it is as bad as you say! We all would love to have a glossy monthly magazine and maybe that might happen, perhaps you could take on the role and do a costing for us and report back. I will gladly type it up for you to present to the ACTA Executive. I challenge you! I also will support it if it is cost effective then maybe you might win some respect back. Did it ever occur to you just how people who work hard for their clubs, and a lot are volunteers, would feel about your comments. I love getting the magazine to see photos of shooters sent in by the dedicated club members who write these stories in their own time. Mr Peters there are other ways to get your point across but the next time try not to insult so many people. S Green Dear Editor; As I enter the “Open” section of DTL competition, graduating from the Junior ranks when I turn 18 in January 2002, I realise I have developed a real passion for the sport of Clay Target Shooting. I think this is because I have received such a great amount of encouragement since taking up the sport, at the age of 11, firstly from my parents and then from a lot of wonderful people I have met around the traps along the way. I would like to acknowledge and offer my thanks for the fantastic help and support I have received from people such as Mal, Craig and Carol Tilley from Express Shotshells at Milperra Marketing. Their generosity and encouragement have been invaluable to me. Also, I would like to thank the ACTA, Andrew Sanders, Bill Iles and all the people who help (often behind the scenes and without recognition) with the Junior Development Camps, which are run twice a year by the ACTA. The coaching we juniors are offered at these camps have been of major value to me, and I know to all the other junior shooters who attend the camps. I feel very fortunate to have been given some of the many opportunities this great sport has to offer, from travelling far and wide and seeing a lot of places I probably would not have seen, to Page 14 making a great many friends and acquaintances. As I step in into the “Open” arena, I hope I can one day offer encouragement and inspiration to the juniors coming up through the ranks, as I have received, and participate in the positive promotion of our sport. Yours in shooting, Andrew Miller Dear Editor; I would like to thank the ACTA for the opportunity that they gave me to represent Australia at the World Skeet Shoot in San Antonio USA. A big thank you must go to Adrian Cousens for all the time he put in to organising the trip. Shooters here in Australia do not realise just how much Adrian is held in high esteem in the USA. I would like to thank Neal Dimmick for all his help and the people he introduced to me while over there. To Scott Wright our manager, a job well done, organising our shoot times, bus driving and keeping us on time. I would recommend Scott as manager for any future away team. I would like to add my thoughts to the new skeet rules, all the hype about the way they shoot in the USA we changed our rules to align with NSSA. However, this is not the case on station 7 you can load two shells to shoot single. Also on station 8 you can load two shells to shoot your 24th and 25th targets on low house. What a saving it would be to clubs if we adopted their way of shooting! No eye opener, no refusal off targets, all shoot offs conducted doubles 3-4-5 and last of all no wasting of time between rounds. Once again thank you all for a wonderful opportunity to represent my country. Laurie Chelepy Zone trap champion, left to right Mick McGill (sponsor) and Barry Boxworth.

Australian Clay Target Shooting News January 2002 — Vale — Bruce Jennings The South West Zone of the VCTA regretfully informs the clay target shooting fraternity of the passing of BRUCE JENNINGS on the 13 October 2001, aged 67 years. Bruce was a past ACTA member (3618) and a devoted coach to all, especially to juniors. He was a winner of numerous championships and a hard working club and zone member. Bruce lived his life in the Warrnambool area and will be sadly missed. Charles Albert Linaker Born: London, May 1920 Died: Bunbury, August 2001 Five sisters made a special trip to Thailand last year on a pilgrimage of respect for the thousands of men who worked on the Burma Railway. Though many men did not survive that wartime ordeal in Hell Fire Pass and other locations, their father, Charles Linaker, was among those who did. At his suggestion, his daughter “enlisted” for the 2000 Quiet Lion Tour - named in honour of the army officer and surgeon, Sir Edward “Weary” Dunlop. They attended the Anzac Day service at Kanchanburi war cemetery, and trekked for another dawn service at Hell Fire Pass. It was a long walk, but one they took on cheerfully, realising the comparatively easy conditions they enjoyed. “Dad had gone on the 1998 Quiet Lion Tour but was not well enough to come up with us last year,” says his second daughter, Robin Brookes. “But we met other families, and saw broken bamboo and other reminders of what the men had gone through. We were known as Charlie’s Angels.” Mr Linaker did the Hell Fire Trek in 1998, accompanied by several fellow prisoners who wanted to see where they had trod, hungry and maltreated, more than half a century ago. If Charlie the soldier was tough enough to endure that wartime ordeal, it was possibly because his childhood was far from pampered. Arriving in Australia at the age of four, he and his parents Charles and Lilian, and younger brothers Jeff and Albert, lived at Northcliffe, scatching a living alongside other English families lured by the promise of land and a place in the sun. He later lived in Margaret River and Kellerberrin, and at the outbreak of World War II joined the army. He served first in the Middle East, and then in Java, where his unit was among many overrun by the Japanese. From Changi prison in Singapore, the next step was the Thai jungles and Hell Fire Pass. Charlie survived not only that, but also a spell working in coalmines in Japan. Realising that the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki almost certainly saved his life, he weighed less than 35 kg when his captors surrendered and peace was restored. Charlie and his wife Jenny settled in Bunbury, when he became the town’s first plumbing apprentice after the war, working with builder Jack Best. In 1968 Charlie was a founding member of the Bunbury Rifle and Skeet club, which later became the Bunbury Skeet Club, then the Bunbury Clay Target Club. During the years since 1968, Charlie was a keen duck and clay target shooter. He will always be remembered by his fellow shooting mates as a dag in the duck swamp, and on duck shooting expeditions was always the life of the party. Charlie was also a very competent clay target shooter plus a great club contributor and loved his skeet. In 1984, Charlie was awarded the third life membership of the club in recognition of his efforts and dedication over the years. January 2002 He also was a member of the very exclusive and famous 21 member “Billy Goats Club” in Bunbury, membership of which was nominated only by the peers of all shooters in the Bunbury region. As a sub-contract plumber Charlie was well respected by his working mates and the Bunbury community, for his amusing sense of humour and willingness to assist friends in need. Even with his many war injuries, Charlie never complained but was always first to volunteer in the rebuilding of the club and facilities. Charlie will be sadly missed by all his shooting mates. The Linakers raised five daughters in the southern suburb of Carey Park, a tranquil contrast to the terrain where he had once struggled to keep morale. Charlie spent his working life as a plumber, declining to dwell on the rigours of captivity, preferring to recall the moments of humour that had maintained spirits. Mrs Linaker died six years ago. Charlie stayed in touch with several army mates, and was among the keenest contenders when the 1998 Quiet Lion Tour was on the cards. His most positive gesture, however, came this year. When the Federal Government awarded him and others $25,000 as compensation for their years of captivity, he gave most of it to Princess Margaret Hospital and the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Turning 81, he said, he hardly needed money. The hospital, and the pilots who flew young people to Perth for treatment, could surely use it. Charlie Linaker is survived by his daughters Beverly King, Robin Brookes, Julie Russell, and twins Dawn Radvilas and Diane Sedgewick, 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Robert William McGillivray Passed away 25th October 2001 Aged 62 years It is with deep sadness and regret that the Frankston Australian Clay Target Club mourns the passing of one of its Life & Foundation members Bob McGillivray. Although Bob moved to Lake Boga. Frankston Australian Clay Target Club was always his club and made as many visits as possible. Bob was known as a Good Shot (some 300 DTL Break), but more accurately known by his friends as a Pretty Shot. — From the members of the Frankston Australian CTC. Our deepest sympathy to Judy, Garry and Heather. Southern Zone Coaching Clinic The Southern Zone held a successful coaching clinic at Illawarra Gun Club on the weekend of Saturday & Sunday 10th & 11th November 2001. Fred Schmetzer & Kevin Perkins coached approximately 20 participants each day in both trap & skeet. Both juniors & ladies participated from Zone clubs including The Forest, NSW, Illawarra, Shoalhaven, Goulburn, Majura Park, Bega & Bombala. The weather was fine & mild & the two day clinic was such a success that the Southern Zone coaching program for 2002 will hold three more clinics, the first in February, then the following two planned for June & November. Cartridges & targets were provided, & also lunch for the participants and their immediate family. Everyone was happy and satisfied with the weekend and the participants gained valuable knowledge from our experienced coaches. Australian Clay Target Shooting News Page 15 The Purple Clays Grafton is renowned for its Jacaranda trees and its Jacaranda Festival in October/November each year. So again the Grafton Clay Target Club staged its yearly Jacaranda Open Classic to coincide with the aftermath of the festival. As with much of the coastal area, Grafton was suffering a very bitter springtime drought after the severe March floods. It was hard to believe that the drought affected grass around the grounds had been thoroughly inundated with floodwater that had completely covered the Clubhouse by some two feet earlier in the year. Again Coffs Harbour CTC and Grafton CTC had organised a joint Clay Target weekend spectacular which included a draw for a coloured Television for those who participated in the full program at both Clubs. looming thunderstorm. It was all hands now to keep the show rolling. The clouds gathered ominously as we began the 50 target Jacaranda Double Barrel Championship. The rolling clouds seem to inspire the shooters to even greater heights and then as if by witchcraft the thunderstorm moved around behind the clays to provide an even better background for the targets with even keener shooting and more possibles. Again shoot offs were required to determine the winners and eventually Clem Cunningham from the mountain club of Dorrigo tenaciously took the Overall Sash with and excellent 102/102. But the day wasn’t entirely finished as we needed a High Gun winner. Bud Sweeney and Michael Hickey had shot consistently all day and were both sitting with a perfect score. After an excellent shoot off Bud Sweeney was acclaimed High Gun winner with the faultless score for the day of 135/135. Records showed that it has been a long time since we achieved a perfect High Gun score at a Grafton Jacaranda Open shoot. 2001 Grafton Jacaranda Queen Robyn Thompson and Bud Sweeney, winner of the High Gun and 30 target Jacaranda Mixed Classic at the 2001 Grafton jacaranda Open Classic. The Jacaranda trees at the Club awoke to our Jacaranda Open day with a forecast of showers and thunderstorms but locals knew that the purple trees were in for a calm, hot and humid November day. The prediction of thunderstorms could likely prove correct. At 9.30am the 38 shooters from a wide area including Newcastle, the Tablelands and local coastal clubs were ready to start but there was a pensive moment as silence was called for to recollect that this was Remembrance Day. First event, the 25 target Double Barrel, and no less than a quarter of the field came in with a perfect score. Obviously the targets were good and this set the trend for the rest of the day. The Jacaranda Mixed Classic of 10 D/B, 10 S/B and 10 P/S was keenly shot and it took a shoot off to determine Bud Sweeny as the overall winner with a perfect 75/75. Shoot offs were needed in almost every grade to settle the winners and placegetters. A look towards the South showed the deep clouds of that predicted Page 16 Jacaranda Queen Robyn Thompson and Clem Cunningham, winner of the 50 target Jacaranda Double Barrel Championship at the 2001 Grafton Jacaranda Open Classic. During all this drama some of the onlookers had witnessed the arrival of our newly crowned Jacaranda Queen Robyn and her Entourage together with a representative of the Commonwealth Bank who had kindly sponsored our day. The Jacaranda Party were delighted to assist in distributing the trophies but it seemed even more obvious that all present at the shoot were ecstatic to have the Jacaranda Party with them as they were charmed by their manner and graciousness. The day ended and as the goodbyes were said, some already wanted to know their squading for next year. Oh yes .. and who won the Telly ... Michael Hickey still went home a very happy winner. Aha .. shooting under the Jacas is delightful.

Albany Clay Target Club Members of the Albany Clay Target Club recently held the Merv Lubcke memorial shoot. Overall winner was David Holland with a good score of 89/100. The weather was extremely unfavourable with howling winds and driving rain, the sort of weather that Lubcke would not take his Beretta gun into. A grade winner was Laurie Hull, who came down from the Katanning Clay Target Club for the day. His score was 83/100. David Holland also took out B Grade. C Grade was won by David Levingston with a score of 73/100. Holland won a shield that remembers Merv Lubcke and the event will go on for many years. Lubcke, who was life member of the club, was a keen skeet shooter so the event to remember Lubcke by is the 100-target skeet. He was a founding member of the club and was active in all aspects of the running of the club. Lubcke even let the club shoot on his property while the current grounds were being prepared. He is missed by all members and will never be forgotten. • Pictured: Overall winner, David Holland.

Queensland Northern Zone Clay Target — Shooting Coaching Weekend The Townsville Gun Club was the location for the Coaching Weekend for clay target shooters sponsored by Sport and Recreation Queensland, Queensland Clay Target Assoc. and Northern Zone Clay Target Assoc. Saturday saw a number of interested shooters come along to hear how they could improve there scores. Coaching specialist Graham Boyd made the trip from Albury in southern New South Wales for the weekend to assist shooters in there quest for better score. Starting the weekend was local coach Arthur Kenna who delivered a good session on visualization. Arthur explained how rehearsing targets in your mind before getting to the grounds can help cope with the intense stresses of competition. Next up was Gary Dumaresq to teach the shooters a little about breathing correctly whilst competing to control the nerves and not hyperventilate or hypo ventilate. Most of those in attendance did not know how important this is to shooting. Guest speaker Graham Boyd was next up with an interesting talk of his experience of how when he was a new shooter nobody would pass on information to assist him improve. However it is very different now with people being more than happy to assist everyone improve there scores. Graham had many good tips to help everyone. The most important thing is to be systematic in your approach to each target whether it be practice at the local club or national championship. After lunch Andrew Larson set up to speak about eyes and how to see the targets. Andrew explained how your eyes work and January 2002 how various eye exercises can help maintain good vision. Finding eye dominance was also demonstrated and how this can be corrected and that using both eyes was very important as depth perception is a critical part of judging moving targets. The afternoon was mostly a hands on exercise with all shooters heading to the tracks to put into practice what they had learnt. First up were the junior shooters with Graham giving them ten targets to see how they shot before giving any advice on any problems they may have. The senior shooters then had a shot with the juniors watching and Graham pointing out any little hiccups they may have had to the juniors so that they could understand what he meant when he pointed it out to them. After twenty five targets the juniors were back on the tracks along with some of the new seniors to get as may tips as they could from Graham. Everyone was more than happy with the day and on Sunday everyone had a chance to put into practice all that was learnt. There were some major improvements by the juniors and the new shooters. The shooters and Northern Zone Clay Target Assoc. Wish to thank Graham Boyd, QCTA and Sport and Recreation Queensland who sponsored the weekend.

Night shooting January 2002 St Arnaud Gun Club Incorporated OFFICIAL CLUB HOUSE OPENING St Arnaud Gun club Inc held its official clubhouse opening on Sunday 28th October 2001 in perfect weather conditions. Present at the opening was VCTA State President Mr Vince Mollica and the Mayor of the Northern Grampians Shire Council, Mr Colin Hall to officially open the new clubhouse at St Arnaud Gun club. Mr Stephen Reyne started the official proceedings at 11.00 am with a brief history. St Arnaud Gun club was successfully initiated at a meeting held at Mr H Higginbothams Hairdressing Salon, on Wednesday July 26th 1899. Mr G Myles was appointed secretary. The club shooting grounds were situated at Edgars Paddock, Ballarat Road, St Arnaud. RK Macey Steel Manufacturers are now on the site. The opening match was held on Wednesday August 9th 1899, and was a three bird, (Sparrow) event, scored three points for a first barrel and two points for a second barrel kill. Mr F Bray shooting off 15 yards scored the only possible out of nine points. Mr H Langshaw, shooting off 21 yards scored eight points. The prize money was one pound, one shilling ($2.10). L to R VCTA NWZ Vice President Mr John McVitty, State President Mr Vince Mollica, Club President Mr Stephen Reyne, Mayor NGSC Mr Colin Hall, Councilor’s Mrs Karen Douglas , Mr Bary Kearnan & Mr Bryan Small. In April 1953, the club purchased the land situated at crown allotment 13 and 14, Parish of Darkbourne, from Mr Kelly, (Where the present club stands). The shooting grounds were set up for live bird shooting and also for the new discipline of clay target shooting. The clay target thrower was an ICI Automatic Angle Trap (Snipe), and was cocked and released manually, and so we call, “Pull” for the puller to release the trap. In 1984 the club installed two shooting grounds, complete with original Burton Traps. The club is now equipped with two of the latest type Burton Traps with Hopper Fed Continental Traps, and release by Canterbury Voice Release Equipment. The club also has a Ball Trap Layout. The St Arnaud Gun Club Inc applied for and received a government grant of dollar for dollar to replace the clubrooms. The clubrooms building commenced in December 1998. The club would like to thank Mr Vince Mollica in attending the opening.
