H.B. Gun Club Champs
Visiting shooters took the major titles at the annual Hawkes Bay provincial clay bird shooting championships which were held in good conditions at the Gisborne Gun Club's grounds at The Willows recently.
The skeet championship resulted in a victorious family double for the two aptly-named Gunn brothers of Hawkes Bay, who took both the first and runner-up positions.
The sights are set on the camera in this picture of the three placegetters in the H.B. double rise championship event. From left: John O'Hearn, Hamilton (1st), Ralph Hughes, Putaruru (2nd), and Keith Chatfield, Opotiki (3rd).
