Greenfields Farmers FITASC. August 21 Barbury Shooting odt

Barbury shooting Ground is certainly a place that everyone needs to visit. Everything about the
ground is excellent and as they say first impressions certainly count. From the arrival as you view
the area and stands, the first few steps in the clubhouse and the warm and friendly atmosphere
from those who greet you. The stands give every variation imaginable spread over a perfect area
that is in pristine condition. As you travel around the site you will see coaches with novice shooters
as well as competitions being held for world class shooters. To end your day you can enjoy super
refreshments or visit the in-house shop to view or purchase guns and shooting equipment.
Having recently held such events as the English open FITASC championships and the pro challenge,
this was never going to be an easy course. That said the layouts and targets were as good as any
course that we had shot with, nothing extreme but plenty that needed some thought. However
Martin Elworthy cannot have read the script as he scored a blistering 96 to win the shoot and
dropping only four targets. Robert Taylor continued with his impressive form throughout the series,
again scoring in the high 80’s and staying at the top of ‘A’ class. At this point also Mike Hillyer must
be congratulated for not only his score but his belief and determination to overcome what can only
be described as a horrendous miss fortune. To see Mike not only walking around, but shooting to
such a standard can only be described as “truly remarkable”. Chris Boult also met the challenge of
the shoot, with an exceptional 85 – to not only win ‘B’ class but to take the most improved score of
the day with +8 on his FFC. Meanwhile In ‘C’ class David Moss continued to improve his monthly
scores with a well-deserved win achieving 72 and taking him up a class for next month’s shoot. ‘D’
class was once again won by Paul Nesbit-Bell on 48, in his first season of FITASC.

amount of entries that return for the Sporting and FITASC monthly shoots held at the ground.

Finally many thanks to Hugh Stevens and his team at Barbury for a fantastic day, we certainly will be
looking forward to returning there next year.

Our final shoot of the season was kindly held by Robin Heal and his team at Somerset Shooting
ground. As many of you know this Shooting Ground resides in the grounds of the famous
Glastonbury festival site, overlooking the stunning festival area and surrounding Mendip Hills.
Weather and conditions were absolutely perfect for an autumn days shooting at this popular venue
and again we had a new name at the top of the score sheet. Darren Moon scored an impressive 88
to take ‘High Gun,’ on what most certainly proved to be an extremely challenging course. Equally
impressive was ‘A’ class winner Jeff Waters who scored 87 and one of only a few entrants that
managed to increase their classification score. Another new winner was Chris Dare taking ‘B’ class on
77. Meanwhile Rob Aldous who never misses a shoot was rewarded with a ‘C’ class win on 63. It was
also great to see Geoff Huggins win ‘D’ class on 61, Geoff started shooting since retirement and has
been a great supporter of our shoots year on year.

class winners including the high gun within their respective class, therefore £75 has been awarded to
Darren, Chris, Rob & Geoff respectively. Thankyou Robin for not only the gift – but being a keen
participant, supporting our shoots and holding two great events this year. This is greatly appreciated
and I am sure everyone will be looking forward to our return to your ground next year.

Shooting School. The date will be Thursday 23rd December and for those that are not aware Gale has

stocking!

Greenfields Farmers FITASC July 21. Roundwood Results.

February 2018 saw the takeover of Roundwood Shooting School by Andy Shaw, Bob Bailey & Dave Hughes. The hidden but famous shooting ground can certainly be proud of its heritage. Over the years many famous names have shot and competed at the prestigious venue which was originally developed by Charles Church shortly after he purchased the estate. The ground was also used by Beretta to develop and test their shotguns to produce the guns that we all are familiar with today.

After what must have been a difficult time since taking over, the new ground owners have done a remarkable job. Those who know and have enjoyed the ground will certainly appreciate the works that have been done. The ground has now been opened up with vast clearance which has created new areas to enjoy targets and certainly make more of the famous tower.

With some excellent shooting It was great to see new names at the top of the scores list as well as winning all the classes. Sam Sawyer scored an impressive 90 to take high gun and also achieved a straight 25 on the tricky rifle range layout. Class ‘A’ again had a new name with Martin Hill scoring 89, ‘B’ class saw an impressive performance by Alan Bullock 82. Meanwhile ‘C’ class met with honours shared between Jim Boddey & Nicholas Wood scoring 76. A fine battle took place in ‘D’ class between Keith Edwards & Ryan White, both shooting impressively to again achieve a shared score of 67. Both also competing for the most improved award which eventually went to Keith on + 14.

Class results

High gun – 90 Sam Sawyer.

A class – 89 Martin Hill, 88 John Pool, 86 Robin Heal.

B class – 82 Alan Bullock, 80 Dave Coward, 79 Andy Vickery.

C class – 76 Jim Boddey & Nicholas Wood, 72 Steve Vickery.

D class – 67 Keith Edwards & Ryan White, 62 James Donnelly.

Most improved Keith Edwards + 14. Greenfields draw prize winner Bill Joyce

Both win a £50 voucher kindly donated by Greenfield Guns.

With its new facilities and gun shop this is sure to be a great day out for us all to enjoy.
