The grounds looked a picture and although the weather conditions on Saturday were not ideal, a strong turn-out of shooters along with their families, arrived ready to take part.
The Cowra Bowling & Rec Single Barrel Championship was taken out by Tony O’Leary with a perfect score, under very trying conditions, of 30/30.

Sunday’s weather was much improved although the wind was quite gusty & nippy! The Agfactor Pointscore Championship saw Aaron Jones from Sydney, win with a score of 117/117.
