Thursday evening, 21 July

We are back from the Overseas Team Match, and the last few shots of the St. George's Second Stage are echoing down the range. I won't be able to tell you about the latter until tomorrow.

In the Overseas, we knew with our small team that we were pressed in a match that requires 12 shooters. However, we gave a good account of ourselves and there were no real disasters. But, we finished 4th of the four teams. Jersey and Guernsey put on a terrific display, with Jersey winning by two points 1248 to 1246, with equal v-bulls. That's an average of 104 per shooter over 12 shooters, a truly impressive performance. We and Kenya were in a different battle in the same match, with Kenya in the end pipping us by two points, 1218 to 1216. our scores were: Mullin 102.8, Murray 104.11, Kolenko 95.9, Landreville 103.10, Bissonnette 102.8, Frost 100.12, Stanoev 100.10, Paton 105.12, Westlake 100.8, Spinney 102.9, Marion 104.14, McKellar 99.10.

The Grand Aggregate finished this morning with Prince of Wales. As I mentioned previously, Glyn Barnett held his lead of two points, dropping only three all week. This is a new record also by two points. Top Canadian was Jim Paton in 4oth place. I'll list other scores and placings later.

Individual Grand Aggregate Scores (Canadians)

In the Prince of Wales, there is a ten-way tie for 1st place with 75.14. None of our team members, but I have to note that my brother, Peter, an overseas member of DCRA, is in the tie shoot! Pete finished one place behind Jim Paton in the Grand.
