Provincial clay shoot this weekend

The Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association will host the 2014 B.C. Provincial Sporting Clays Association Provincial Championships.

The Williams Lake Sportsmen’s Association will host the 2014 B.C. Provincial Sporting Clays Association Provincial Championships this weekend around the grounds at its clubhouse on Bond Lake Road.

“This is a game that some people describe as golf with a shotgun,” said one of the event’s organizers, Barry Jenkins.

“You go to one station, there will be six or eight targets that are the same, each person shoots those and then they move on to the next station and it’ll be a totally different angle and distances.”

The clay target shooting event is expected to house around 60 shooters from throughout the province.

Preliminary rounds get underway Friday at 10 a.m., with the championships to follow Saturday and Sunday — also both beginning at 10 a.m.

This will be the second year a provincial clay shoot has been held and the first year the event will be hosted in Williams Lake.
