Burdekin Clay Target Club Results

Burdekin Clay Target Club had a very successful 2 Day Shoot on Saturday March 9 and Sunday March 10. 73 shooters attended, travelling from Atherton, Silkwood, Townsville, Bowen, Mackay, Sarina and Charter Towers to compete over the weekend. The weather wasn’t looking the best leading up to the weekend but at least the heavy rain held off for us, with only scattered showers at times. The cloud cover and wind made conditions very challenging with visibility tough while the targets danced a jig but that didn’t stop the fantastic results in all grades. Thanks goes out to our sponsors for their continued support- B & M Drilling, QMN, John & Gina Calligaro, CVS Mechanical, Russo & Vella, AGnVET, Lui & Inez Populin, NQ Hardfacing & Kirknie Station. Also a huge thank you to all the club members and volunteers that helped make the weekend such a success. Our next shoot will be our Come & Try day on Saturday March 23 – come along for something different to try. For more details, visit our Facebook page.
