TWO young guns from the Sale Small Bore Rifle Club have outshone the best junior shooters in the state.
Fifteen-year-old Morgen Visser (pictured right in photo above) and 13-year-old Darcee Young attended the Melbourne International Shooting Club last month to compete in the Victorian State Small Bore Championships.
The competition began on Saturday, February 25, with Darcee placing second in her three-round shoot and Morgen placing third.
On Sunday, Morgen placed first in the state championship and walked away with the Victorian State Champion title for 50 metre bench rest for juniors and sub-juniors, while Darcee placed third.
Their success comes despite having only taken up the sport within the past two years – Darcee has been shooting for the past 18 months, and Morgen for the past 14 months.
Additionally, Darcee is also the reigning Gippsland under-21 champion.
Both girls represented the local rifle club well and have done the organisation, and their parents, proud.
