The weather was not quite as planned with showers all morning but breaking up enough around 1pm allowing us to get started.
While waiting we had a sausage sizzle to warm everyone up - 17 shooters in all so Manual Targets were used.
Shooting conditions varied from fog, light showers and changeable wind strengths from the West. However some shooters were able to read the conditions, Susie Ryan in FA and Ben Goodwin in F Open. Also Mark Sewell in Target Rifle still top scored despite putting his last shot (a Centre Bull) on the wrong target.
After the shoot Wodonga provided afternoon tea which was eagerly consumed with lots of banter around the Fire Tank!
- Target Rifle Mark Sewell-92.7, Gayle Sewell-91.4, Scott Brindley-91.4, R Moyle-90.2, G Cavanagh-91.4, T Vinney-87.5, M Fletcher-82.4, G Mull-60.1. (Out of 100).
- F Class Susie Ryan-112.6, Bob Pederson-111.3, Graham Crowe-99.3, Kevin Paton-99.2, Hubert Hassall-97.2, K Dyason-91.1, M Folliston-73.1 (Out of 120).
- F Open Ben Goodwin-FO-116.4, John Goodwin-FO-111.3.
Also thanks to Paul Golden who helped out with Target Marking.
Next week will be a 1000 Yard Club Shoot.

Ulysses
THE week has been pretty lousy what with rain on Wednesday and rain again on Sunday and Saturday was not what you would call brilliant but a few did turn up for coffee at Billy’s.
Up and coming events are the Christmas in July at Jugiong this Saturday, at the Sir George Hotel.
Unfortunately while there are a couple of spots available at the dinner table accommodation is fully booked with the nearest being Cootamundra or Gundagai. Give Gloria a call on 0418 461 193.
On Saturday we will be having a sausage sizzle at Toys R Us from 9am until 1pm in aid of this year’s Toy Run.
On Sunday we will be at the Swap meet with a large trailer full of firewood to be raffled in aid of the Toy Run. If anyone can help at either of these happenings just turn up we will soon give you a job.
Peter Meiklejohn was back home for a few days but he is now back in Calvary Hospital for further treatment.
If you can spare five minutes to say g’day I am sure he would appreciate it. It is not much fun staring at four walls and a ceiling all day.
On August 6 we meet up with Griffith and Albury/Wodonga for the annual feast at the Morundah Hotel.
On August 19 it’s off to The Temora Aviation Museum where they will be having a fly day.
That is always a good event and food and drink is no problem, being available on site.
Of course, weather permitting, there is always the Wednesday rides which leaves Billy’s Café at 9:30am, after a discussion about a destination.
Our next Branch meeting is on the 18th of this month at the Radio Club Rooms at 7 Small Street. Doors open at 7pm and the meeting gets under way at 7.30pm. All interested people are most welcome.
And while we are on the subject of interested people, the Ulysses Club membership is declining due to a myriad of factors.
The club was made up of a large collection of ‘Baby Boomers’ and many of them have moved on to other interests like caravans etc.
We need an injection of new recruits, so if you can line up a bunch of motorcyclist who are 40 years old, and above, and love to get out and about get them to give us a call on 0408 420 766 or ring the National Office, in Narellan on 1300 134 123 or 02 4647 7772.
There are lots of good reasons to join and make like-minded friends all over Australia. Enjoy the week and watch those slippery roads.
