Saturday the Bradford Gun Club hosted the NY vs PA Allstar shoot. There was a total of 167 youth shooters, including 17 from Portville. The winds were high, trees were falling in the distance and they were dodging rain drops. Despite the challenges it was very impressive to watch the kids still breaking an abundance of birds.
Three of our very own were among the top 8 for NY. Evan Wenke tied for first place breaking 46 out of 50. Caleb Burgess took 4th shooting 43/50 and Jackson George 42/50 taking home 5th.
Great job to all shooters! The end of the year fun shoot will be held Monday May 1st at 5pm. More details to follow.
