The first Laporte World Sporting UK Championship held at Orston shooting ground proved to be a hard fought competition right from day one on a tough but fair course.

Initial scores on the Sunday were on the low side until Dave Carrie posted a 90 proving that the par 90 was achievable
by a scratch shooter.

Nick Hedrick returned with a 91 which he thought was five short of the winning score matched later in the day by John Lee. However on form Martin Myers shot the course later in
the day and posted an amazing 95 on his first entry.

Martin believed there was a 97 out there and as this was
a re-entry shoot the battle was set. After a few re-entries John Lee broke free of those stuck on 91 to be three behind Martin on 92.

In the second level (handicap added) another competition was raging as 97 inc handicap held the lead most of the day, then Keith Levesly posted 103 to be out in front.

However fast improving lady shooter Rachel Carrie returned with a 105 after her second round which finished up leaving her leading the second level after day one.

Second Day

Martin Myers returned to improve on his 95 but found it could not be done. More and more top shooters tried to better or even match his score, but they failed too which
meant Martin became the Laporte World Sporting UK Champion winning High Gun prize money of £500.

John Lee managed to claw his way up to 94 to take first
place and the £300 prize money separating himself from the three shooters on 92, Nick Hendrick, Dave Carrie and Richard Bunning which shared 2nd place all picking up £150 each.

In the second Level Rachel Carrie looked safe out in front on 105, two in front of three shooters on 103 until Jason Taylor returned with 106 including his handicap.

This proved to be the winning score in the second level and
Jason picked up £300. His wife Jane Taylor also picked up 250 Hull Pro 1 shells making the trip from near Birmingham very worthwhile and a great day out.

Rachel Carrie took second place and £200 with Rob Gray, Keith Levesly and Glen Spalding sharing third place each receiving £100 each.

A further 17 shooters received £80 each and another 17
received 250 Hull Pro One Shells each in the Third level prize fund payout.
