2019 – Cambridgeshire CPSA https://cambridgeshirecpsa.co.uk Clay Target Shooting in Cambridgeshire Tue, 23 Apr 2019 13:43:44 +0000 en-GB hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 DTL – 17th March 2019– Cambridge GC https://cambridgeshirecpsa.co.uk/2019/dtl-17th-march-2019-cambridge-gc/ Tue, 19 Mar 2019 12:42:45 +0000 https://cambridgeshirecpsa.co.uk/?p=438 Continue reading "DTL – 17th March 2019– Cambridge GC"]]> Hi folks, well we are off again with a very busy weekend and today the 17th March it’s the very much looked forward to Cambridgeshire DTL Championship.

Well the day started as it meant to carry on with changing light and very blustery winds, but that didn’t stop Matt Sheldrake and last year’s Champion going at it hammer and tongs again, but this year we had a reversal of last year’s results when Paul came out on top as County Champion and Matt was Senior Champ.  This year Matt shot 98/288 enough to take the title for 2019 with Paul finishing with 98/286 and the Senior title.  This was very good shooting in this weather and I guess at any time, and with 46 entries this year it was not a push over by any means.

So we have our Champ Matt Sheldrake 98/288

Senior Paul Ward  98/ 286

Ladies Amelia Smith 86/248.

Vets Richard Croft   95/ 262

Colts Samuel Halls   96/256

AA   Richard Morris   88/253

A     Steve Eley         94/278

B     Corbie Barnard     97 /284 (well shot Corbie)

C     Marcus Lord      92/275

Well shot folks in very hard trying conditions, and many thanks to Cambridge GC for their hospitality. For full set of scores on the national CPSA website see here.

The Vets was very tight with 2 shooters on 80 Richard Croft and Peter Simpson count back had to be used as both shooters had left the ground so Richard Croft came out on top, for the second year in a row.

Well it could have been a better day weatherwise and after the last few weeks it was a big let down, but nevertheless it was a good turn out at Eriswell SG for our English Skeet Championship. Some very good shooting took place and as it worked out the early morning squads were the winners with the weather; they got a bit wet but missed the big winds. For full report and scores see here
