Frome & District Pistol Club - FDPC.
3-Gun 2007 was the year of the farmyard shoot. Stages included the use of a few chickens, a pig, several sheep and various parts of a cow – all excellent props, care of ‘the Brooklyn’s’.

All in all, an excellent shoot, with enough sunshine to make your crops grow wild !

Other congratulations include : Lyndsay Copperman (highest Lady), Aaron Witheridge (highest Junior, and ‘new kid on the block’ !!) and Fred Davis, who won himself a .22 rifle in the prize draw, donated by S J Downs RFD. Also, an excellent performance by “FDPC A Stars” – winners of the MIDWAY Team Challenge – a particularly handsome group of able shooters (yes, it was my team !!).
