37 members and 12 guests attended the November shoot.
Conditions were wet and muddy, unsurprisingly after the recent weeks of heavy rain, which caused some problems accessing the site and moving trailers and traps around.
This month saw the first in the Winter Series competition both for the club and for Middlesex Woodpigeon guns in attendance.

Andy Willett top scored in AA today with 50, just ahead of James Horrod on 49 and Glen Boxall on 48.
Matt Oldland won A class, finally making it into AA, scoring 52 with a borrowed gun!  Ian Hargreaves was second on 48 and newly promoted Rick Warrington was third with 47.
Jon Watson’s third 44 in a row was good enough to win B class, clear of Chris Flanders and Steven Keane in joint second on 40.
After several runner-up spots, John Hughes won C Class with 42 with Ron Turner in second on 40.

In the Middlesex Woodpigeon Winter Series, Steve Cole takes an early lead on 47, with son David second with 43.

Well done to all of our winners this month and thanks to everyone who helped set up, run and pack away the shoot in testing conditions.

This month 42 members and 18 guests were in attendance for a 60 bird shoot over 7 stands. The weather was kind to us for October with sunshine and a gentle breeze.
Alongside the regular monthly trophy shoot was a side-by-side competition for the Surrey CPSA title and Webley & Scott trophy for non-Surrey-CPSA shooters. Surrey CPSA winner was Peter Saich scoring an excellent 53, with Danny Smith runner up on 43. The Webley & Scott trophy winner was John Morgan on 38 and John Hughes in second place with 29.
As for the regular competition, Steve Keane (38) triumphed in C class and Rick Warrington topped B class with a fine 47. Winner in A class was Nigel Foreman who returned after a lengthy absence and score a very good 54. Non-trophy AA class and high gun was tied by Glen Boxall and Andy Willett, who for the second time this year both scored 56.

Well done to all of our winners this month and thanks to everyone who helped set up, run and pack away the shoot.

35 members and 7 guests took part in this month’s shoot.
The layout turned out to be quite a challenging one, with some difficult to read targets. The number of stoppages due to mainly battery problems also didn’t help with concentration.

High gun, again, was Glen Boxall in AA with 51.
Winner of A Class was our President, Peter Saich on 46.
Also with a great score of 46 in B Class was Aaron Wiggins and Paul Trusler topped C Class with 37.
Well done to all of our winners this month.

A big thank you to all who helped set up, run and pack away the shoot in the hot conditions.

On a hot summer day, 34 members and 12 guests took part in this month’s shoot.
The layout was set up over 7 stands with a variety of targets.

First mention must go to Phil Saich, whose car went into limp mode and broke down on the way to the shoot. Phil’s shooting very much didn’t though, as he achieved a personal best of 50, winning C class by a large margin (and he would have triumphed in A class on countback).
B class winner was Alex Blackwell on 47 and Kevin Scarlett topped A class with 50.
In non-trophy AA class, Glen Boxall’s 58 was the highest score of the day.

A big thank you to all who helped set up, run and pack away the shoot in the uncomfortably warm conditions.

Attendance was down again this month with just 31 members and a handful of guests.

The layout over 7 stands was deceptively tricky for some.

Well done to one of our newest members, Ian Parish, on his first trophy win in C class with a fine 40 scored. B class was topped by Chris Wells on 47, which was the second highest score of the day. Des Park was high gun and winner of A class with an excellent 49.

Congratulations to all of our winners and a big thank you to all those involved with setting up, running the shoot and packing away afterwards.

36 Members and a handful of guests (not all of whom handed in their score cards) attended the May shoot. Unfortunately the weather turned wet half way through the morning and the rain continued in the afternoon whilst packing away.

Scores were up across the board today compared to recent months and the results were close in all classes.

In C Class, Richard Collins and Ron Turner both scored 41, with five levels of countback need to separate them and resulting in Richard winning the John Spooner Trophy.

The winner of the Reg Rice Cup in B Class was Alex Wells with a very good 50 and in A Class the Valdar Gates Cup was won by James Horrod with an excellent 53.

In the non-trophy AA Class both Glen Boxall and Andy Willett scored 56.

Well done to everyone and as always thanks goes to all who helped with setting up, running and packing away afterwards.

On a sunny Easter Sunday, 31 members and 12 guests shot today on a varied layout that clearly suited some more than others.

First mention should go to Gary Evans. High Gun and winner of A class with a brilliant 50, even the trailing pair of Easter Bunnies couldn’t faze Gary on the day. Well done!

Elsewhere…
AA class was topped by Glen Boxall on 49, Ian Hargreaves triumphed with a fine 45 in B class and Alex Spooner was just one clay behind with an outstanding 44 to take C class.

The club offers a warm welcome to a number of new members today: Rick Warrington, Jon Watson, Ian Parish and Steve Keane.

As always thanks goes to all who helped with setting up, running and packing away afterwards.

32 members and 15 guests turned out today to shoot in warm and sunny spring-like conditions. The layout was over the usual 7 stands, with a wide variety of targets and hopefully something for everyone.

All scores are below.
Well done to all of our winners and many thanks to everyone involved in preparing, running and packing away this weekend.
