Come And Try Burdekin Clay Target Club

The Burdekin Clay Target Club once again delivered a fantastic Novice/Come & Try Day, with 15 enthusiastic teams competing and enjoying a day of clay target shooting. The weather was ideal, with a consistent breeze making for a great atmosphere. The event saw the club welcome eight new members, bringing the total membership to an impressive 94.

The club extends a big thank you to the event sponsors, QCTA - Queensland Clay Target Association, as well as Joe & Sylvia from Joe Caruso Construction. Special appreciation also to Cameron Cislowski and Regan Southwood for donating prizes for the Best Dressed Team competition.

In the individual competitions, Jarred Ferguson took first place in the Novice category with a strong 45/50, while Ron Gough shot a perfect 50/50 to claim victory in the Members division. Texas Delle Baite and Regan Southwood emerged as champions in the Novice Junior and Novice Ladies categories, respectively.

The team event was hotly contested, with Revolver Doors taking first place with a score of 244. Sore & Broke followed in second place with 229, and Kirknie Klowns rounded out the top three with 226.

With the success of this event, all eyes now turn to the club’s upcoming Annual 2-Day Shoot, scheduled for Saturday, March 8th, and Sunday, March 9th. It promises to be another thrilling competition!
