Bob Pitt

It is with great sadness that we have to report the recent death of Bob Pitt. He worked tirelessly for Cambridgeshire CPSA for many years and was the treasurer for over a decade. Our thoughts are with his family.

Cambs ZZ Helice Rugby & District Trap Club

That’s the last of Cambs championships done now it was a really dull and drizzly sort of day the light was a real problem for picking the targets out. There were only 4 Cambs turned out for this, but we had a good competition between ourselves. The outcome was decided on the last bird with Tim Jones missing the last bird for a shoot of for the title but left him in place for the vets on the same total as Jane Bell, who was the ladies title winner. As the light was now going to low we decided not to shoot off for the vets title and would share for this year.

National Intercounties DTL, Sywell 29th September 2019

Cambridge shooters had a good result at the nationals today at Northampton. 20 squads turned out a good result for the event. High gun vet R croft vets team winners R Croft/T Jones/ G Thatcher

Amelia Smith

Runner up ladies’ team A Smith and H Whiten. Junior runner up S Halls, unfortunately lost by default not being there for the shoot off. Martine would not let me shoot for him instead….I don’t blame her though. Thanks to Sywell for hosting the event.

T Jones , R Croft and G Thatcher

Cambs Single Barrel 15th September 2019 Cambridge Gun Club

It was a shame to say not many entries, but saying that there was a lot of shooting going on all over the country, so people were a little short on the ground. Hey ho, we just have such a busy season. Trying not to interfere with other shoots is very hard.

Sam Hall (Juniors) and Phil Barnard (Champion)

The day was a nice sunny day for the most part, a slight wind over the shoulder on occasions would just alter the odd bird enough to catch you out. Reasonable scores were coming in but the last squad went out with Philip Barnard in it and he shot 95 – the best score of the day by far. Enough to win the trophy for the second time in three years. Well done that man! The vets went to Richard Croft with an admirable 90. The juniors was won by Sam Hall with 82. No ladies contested it this year so the trophy is held in keeping for next year. Thanks to Cambridge Gun Club for their support and help in providing the venue for us again.
