We had a superb attendance today and the weather was very kind to us. Some excellent shooting and we welcomed two new members in Joanna and George P(new junior). Also a guest in James C.

The shoot this Sunday was without the aid of DB Guns traps, so we could only shoot three stands at a time.  During the T break the stands were rejigged and we continued with shoot with three new targets.

Hi All

A good shoot this morning but again we picked up plastic wads.
We are very lucky that the local land owners let us use the fields so please can everyone check what cartridges they have in there bags before they start shooting.  Please remember these fields are used for grazing.

The Roger Phillips Trophy Shoot 30th June

Kingswood Gun Club Posted on by

The day was sunny, dry and warm to be shooting for the Roger Phillips Trophy. Roger was a former member of the club, a fun guy who always had a joke. This trophy shoot is held to remember him. He would be pleased to know that 27 members and 2 guests where there to honour him. There are still a few older club members who knew him from the old days. The trophy was awarded on a handicap system. I think I was listening, this is how I understood the methodology.

  • Two stands, and five clays from a third stand were selected at random. (Todd P was the random stand generator)
  • The score of highest scoring member over these 25 birds was taken as the par. (Mark C score was used as the scratch score, 19)
  • Each member was then awarded a handicap, a point was awarded for each point under the scratch score. So I broke15 clays on the first 25 birds, so was awarded 4 handicap points.
  • The score from the remaining 25 clays (Competition Stand Total) are added to the handicap. This results in the final score..

 

The result was Nick won the handicap shoot.
