Strong winds made for testing conditions at the Burdekin Clay Target Club over the weekend, with competitors battling moving targets across two days of competition on June 13 and 14.
A total of 47 shooters took part in Saturday’s 100-target Double Barrel Handicap, followed by 37 competitors on Sunday, with the breeze proving a constant challenge as clays “danced around” in the air.
Despite the conditions, several shooters produced standout results across multiple events.
In the 100-target Double Barrel Handicap, Peter Scott claimed the overall open win with 89/100, ahead of Wayne Cislowski (88) and David Stitt (87), while Pedro Le Blowitz (83) and Greg Maltby (82) rounded out the top five.
Event wins were shared across multiple shooters, with David Stitt recording a perfect 25/25 in one round, while Ron Gough and Greg Maltby both posted 24/25 in another. Michael Zabala and Wayne Cislowski also featured strongly with 24/25 performances.
In the 30-target Medley (15m), Aaron Lemphers dominated AA Grade with a perfect 50/50, while Joe Caruso and Glen Rea finished just behind on 49/50. Other grade winners included Peter Wade (A Grade, 48/50), Sylvia Rossato and Bruce McBow (B Grade, 43/50), and Brian Bonanno (C Grade, 40/50).
The 25-target Single Barrel event saw Aaron Lemphers again in top form with 33/34 in AA Grade, while Joe Sebastiani (Jnr), Sylvia Rossato and Ian Holmes took out their respective grades.
In the 20-target Pointscore, Lindsay Groat delivered a perfect AA Grade score of 60/60, with Joe Caruso and Michael Zabala close behind on 59/60. Strong performances were also recorded by Peter Scott, Sean Russell and others across grades.
The Double Rise Championship (25 pairs) was sponsored by Andrew Bergin, with Aaron Lemphers claiming both the Open and AA Grade titles with 45/50. Other winners included John Cerqui (A Grade), Jay Murray (B Grade) and David Parker (C Grade).
The club thanked sponsors JBS Foods Australia and Andrew Bergin for their support over the weekend, along with Lui Populin for donating meat trays.
The next Burdekin Clay Target Club shoot will be held on July 11–12.
