Club Scores, Season 40 September 2024 to August 2025

Season 40 - September 2024 to August 2025 Osney Lodge Shoot 15 of 20, Sunday 8 th June 2025 The 15 th shoot of the season and a warm slightly cloudy day - great weather for shooting. A great turnout given we have three shoots in June with 21 members attending. The set up proved to be challenging on one or two stands, especially the random left & right pair (the Midi was not popular, some even asked for Steve Harman to come back quick!!). The lazy lob proved tricky too but, nevertheless, some great scores posted and no less than five new personal bests - wow!! A cracking 47 for the family duo, father, son, Pete and Tyler, Tobias with a fantastic 52, Simon Blanshard with 37 and, last, but by no means least, a fab 36 form Tom. The second month in a row with new personal bests for Tom and Simon - well done everyone, some great shooting. Also, one new entry in the all time top 20, see below and a couple more getting very close. Usual thanks to the following: • Kevin, Graham, Tom & Darrell for the photos • Geoff for managing the shooting fees and memberships and BBQ food, etc. • Chef Geoff for managing the BBQ • Darrell & Geoff for setting up the shoot • Kevin for battery charging and maintenance • Everyone that helped pack away and dispose of the rubbish, and anyone for anything else we’ve forgotten ….

Shooter Statistics, Facts, Figures, Scores and Trophies Below is a collection of statistics, scores and trophies etc. for regular shoots at Osney Lodge Farm and Annual Shooting Tours.

The Founders Trophy The Founders Trophy was created in 2015 by three of the original founding members of F&F, Roy Grogan, George Lake and Brian Sandle (see the Club History page for more information on how the club was formed). First presented at the 30 th Anniversary Shooting Tour on the Isle of Wight in 2015, the Trophy is given to members who have significantly contributed to the club. The winner keeps the Trophy for one year and decides who will be the next member to win at the Annual Shooting Tour.

2015 The Trophy was created this year by the founder members and presented to Darrell Etherington for work on the creation and maintenance of the clubs web site, scores and AGM. Also, for the maintenance and development of the electronics for the Auto Traps.

2016 Awarded to Brendan O’Reilly for his outstanding contributions to the Club. As the clubs regular travel agent he’s arranged many fantastic Annual Shooting Tours. He also helps with clay collections, trap maintenance, the move of the club hut and lots more.

2017 Awarded to Ruth & Tony Tatman for their outstanding contributions to the Club. Ruth & Tony are both very dedicated members of the F&F Club and provided us with Ruthie’s Café every shoot until they retired to Cornwall. They continue to be dedicated long distance members of the club.

2018 Awarded to Geoff Pelling for his outstanding work as Membership Secretary. Geoff took up the function of Membership Secretary in 2017 and has done a fantastic job of ensuring memberships are valid, paid up on time and, more importantly, putting safety first by making sure all members and guests have a valid Shotgun Certificate and insurance.

2023 Awarded to Steve Harman for his dedication and support. Steve regularly gets down very early to help with the set up, starting the generator, getting Tea Urn running (very important task) and generally getting stuff ready for the shoot.
