Results – Willesborough, Kent. 21st May 2017

This event saw the formal introduction of the 55g Salmon overhead distance to the list of the competition events. This was cast in the morning, alongside the T38 and T120 events. Two 55g outfits, kindly supplied by Steve Parkes and Brian Szukala, were cast by everyone – the highest result is posted here.

The day itself was sunny and warm with a patchy breeze. Unfortunately this swung round during the morning events leaving some of the right handers dealing with an on-the-shoulder wind. The lanes were re-orientated for the #5, #7 and ST27 that were cast in the afternoon.
