It was a bad weekend to be a clay target in the North Okanagan.

The North Okanagan Trap and Skeet Club (NOTSC) hosted the Art Salt Memorial provincial championships for trapshooting over the Victoria Day long weekend and the event saw a record 81,500 targets break into pieces.

香蕉视频直播淚t was just a great weekend,香蕉视频直播� said Lisa Salt, NOTSC director. 香蕉视频直播淲e normally expect over 70-80 people, but we were well over 100 total participants.香蕉视频直播�

According to Salt, on the first day of the event, (Friday), shooting went for 11 straight hours (8:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.).

香蕉视频直播淭here香蕉视频直播檚 a lot of different categories and classes for shooting and we had people from all over attend,香蕉视频直播� Salt said. 香蕉视频直播淲e got a few from Alberta, from the States and a bunch from the Lower Mainland.香蕉视频直播�

While notoriously a sport for the older population, younger competitors dotted many of the categories, a welcome sign to Salt.

香蕉视频直播淎 lot of the younger faces are coming from the Lower Mainland,香蕉视频直播� she said. 香蕉视频直播淭hey have a really active gun club in Vancouver, with a lot of practice shooters.香蕉视频直播�

The Club in the Lower Mainland gives out a free clinic the week prior to competition in an effort to get more people interested.

Salt was thankful for the numerous volunteers who helped put on the four-day competition, as it required a lot of hard work. Their next major shoot will be during the Labour Day long weekend in September.

香蕉视频直播淭he Labour Day Classic is next, but we do have a league where we shoot once a month,香蕉视频直播� Salt explained. 香蕉视频直播淲e practice on Sunday and Wednesday香蕉视频直播檚 as well.香蕉视频直播�
