119 cards from three shooters made up the advanced ladder, an startlingly high level of shooting. First place was, without surprise, Steven Watterson, with 95.2 as an average (some of us count that as our personal best, dammit). I got second place with 92.4 and Ray is making a good comeback to 10m with 91.1 as his average.
In the experienced class, Peter and Ben had a scrap to see who could shoot the most cards, Peter winning with a staggering 97 cards shot. (that actually 194 5-strip targets...) Deirdre, however, took first place with 87.893 to Peter's second-place 87.494, with Ben taking third place on 86.4. All very close indeed, and with a total of 330 cards on the ladder, we can be absolutely sure that the results are no fluke.
Novice class wasn't terribly quiet by comparison, 269 cards from 15 people made it the most crowded, if not the busiest of the ladders, but the level of training belies the shooters' novice status, as most of the colours squad is hiding in here doing dry-firing to train. Nithin the incorrigible took first place with 82.889, with Ye ``Elena'' Wang taking second on 78.636 and Kate Fanning in third place on 76.8. Nithin also shot the most cards, with 43 compared to the next nearest total of 35 (shot by both Kate and Victoria McDowell).
