Karen Hudson grabbed second place with Ann Stubbs in third. Greg Donovan continued his recent good form to win the Sighted contest shooting with great precision to record the win from Tamworth’s Ben McCulloch with Greg Scott also showing some fine form to grab third from hunting legend, Brad Smith in a very tight finish.
