Target Shooter 1

Lyn Strydom and Natalie Terblanche both from RSA
for the 2nd and 3rd place in the Ladies category. For
her first standing shot Lyn smashed down the target
and the crowed roared. Natali was next, she missed
but still the crowed roared their applause for Natali.
Then came three shooters all with a total of 113/150
for the 3rd, 4th and 5th positions. After a lengthy
duel Mark Basset (Wales) placed 3rd whilst David
Combrink (RSA) and Hennri Breytenbach (RSA)
placed 4th and 5th respectively. The last to go into
the arena were two Brits, James Woodhead and
John Costello, who showed from day one that it
was their intention to be World Champion. James
managed to knock down the target after several
