Congratulations to Stephen Miller on winning the West Area Championship on behalf of everyone at Bute Clay Target Club.

This title remains with our club for another year following Leighton Reid’s success the previous year — a fantastic achievement for the members and a great reflection of the high standard of shooting at Bute.

During the competition, the DTL Home International Trophy was also in attendance as part of its tour around several shooting grounds. Last year the trophy was won by Scotland, ending a 43 year wait since it was last brought home, whom Leighton was a apart of.

Well done Stephen, and congratulations to everyone involved in continuing the club’s success.
