Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd May. The Cambridgeshire Single Barrel Championship was held at Cambridge Gun Club for the first time. This turned out to be a very good and testing weekend as the targets were very much wind affected and although both days were different the targets seemed much the same.
On Sat the first squad of the day went straight through with Chris Morris's starting 19 seeming a long way off winning a Cambs title but further scores of 24/24/24 put him on a 91 - all in all not a bad score for a single barrel on a very wind affected day.
No further scores were to trouble this total on Saturday. Sunday saw some more of the DTL shooters taking part and we expected higher scores but this proved not to be the case.
Later in the day Jamie Harding of sporting fame came in with another 91 - the top score on sunday and enough to win the Championship.
Georgia Moule came of age winning both the Colts' and the ladies', the Vets went to Gordon Tate with a very good 90. Philip Gray once again took the Juniors' with a fine 89.
Total 28 entries last year was 10.
Many thanks to Cambridge Gun club for holding this years Championships and with entries mostly up on last year I would say it has been a good year for the county.
Thanks to Allan Wright for the report.
