Bathurst Rifle Club Inc., 21st November 2020, W H Cutler Cup 600 yards.

          Competition for the final round of the W H Cutler Cup was held Saturday from 600 yards in what turned out to be very difficult shooting conditions at the Bathurst Rifle Range. A sometimes gusty north westerly wind which dropped in strength as it swung from the north occasionally and along with ample mirage gave shooters plenty to think about.

          Graeme Bright topped the Target Rifle shooters again but scores overall were well below average on the day with Dennis Lavelle and John Coghill next best six points off the leader also scoring two centre bulls each. Gordon Shepherd finished another two points down for the day after losing too many points in his second stage in the unpredictable conditions.

          In F Class Geoff Willis managed a good score in his first stage although only gaining one super centre to keep him on top for the day with a five point lead over Graham Willis who kept good elevation in his second stage but suffered too much horizontal dispersion of shots. Col Howell and Phil Mahon both finished one further point off the lead after switching places with their scoring during the afternoon.

          The winner of the W H Cutler Cup was Geoff Willis (296.58) with runner up John Coghill (293.5). Competition for the Treasurers Trophy was also held after the completion of the W H Cutler Cup on Saturday afternoon with Graham Willis top score for the day and Phil Mahon next up.

          Competition will resume on the 5th December at 700 yards for the K Redding trophy.
