On the 29th September, the Club hosted a charity shoot in conjunction with Garda Anthony Connor from Ardee Station in aid of the family of the late Fintan Goss. The shoot was well attended and raised €1,000 which the Goss family requested to be paid to the Dundalk Counselling Centre. Last Friday the 5th October Gerry Kirk and Dennis Duggan from Ardee Clay Pigeon Shooting Club along with Garda Anthony Connor presented a cheque for €1,000 to Elizabeth McGuckin manager of the Dundalk Counselling Centre. We wish to thank all who participated on the day and gave their support. It was greatly appreciated.

Winter League 2018 – 16-9-18
Hard to believe but we are already 5 weeks into the winter league. The Puddens are currently in the lead but despite this early lead, the Rabbits are bouncing along on their heals.

Winter Team League 2018 – 23-8-18
Two weeks ago the Club Winter Team League started. This year it is made up of three teams and will run for a total of ten weeks with the best eight weekly scores deciding the overall winning team. This year we have introduced a new element to the team makeup. If you are part of the winning team you must have participated in a minimum of seven shoots to be eligible to collect a prize. This is in the interest of fairness for other team members.
Summer League Final 2018 – 26-7-18
Last Thursday was the final round of our 2018 Summer League. We were really blessed with the weather this year. I don’t think we had one bad evening. Well done to all who took part this year and made the effort to turn up for the shoots. Congratulations to all our Class winners:
High Gun – Connor Duggan
Class A – Darren McCooey
Class B – Simon Lucas
Class C – Mickey McMahon
The committee would like to thank all those that helped to run the competition, to all those who turned up early to set up and make changes to the course and to all those who stayed to the end and helps to tidy up the course. Without these few individuals, we would not be able to run the club.
This Thursday evening 2nd August the club will hold its annual BBQ. The BBQ is open to all those who took part in our Summer League. Before the BBQ we will hold a shoot which will start at 6pm.
Summer League 2018 – 19-7-18
Hard to believe that next Thursday is the final of the 2018 Summer League. The battle for High Gun has been strongly contested between Connor and Darren over the last few weeks and will come down to the wire in Thursday’s shoot.
Could everybody who won trophies in 2017 competition please bring them on Thursday so that we can get photographs of the winners.
Summer League 2018 – 12-07-18
Only two rounds of our Summer League Shoot remaining and we have a fight for the high gun between Darren and Connor. Both are level pegging on 399. As they have both completed their 9 shoots each bird in the remaining shoots will be critical.

Summer League 2018 – 24-5-18
As stated in last weeks post all shooters have now been classified. This year the committee decided that we would classify using the Leinster League classifications as a reference but still only use 3 classes. We also stated that handicaps would be reintroduced and count towards the high gun score. so A = +0, B = +5, C = +10.
