Karen Hudson led the field home among the Compound shooters after putting together a tidy round with Wendi Murrell in second and Ann Stubbs taking third.

John Clark did just enough to finish on top in the Sighted contest with a very tight battle for the minor placings with Stuart Dolbel and John Finn finishing in a dead heat.

Brothers, Adam and William Loftus also returned good scores in their respective divisions.
