The last BFCC meeting of the year attracted casters from all over the country and one from abroad (or is that two if we include Paul?). Many thanks to all those who travelled significant distances in order to compete, it’s very much appreciated. The weather was pleasantly warm with a light, but inconsistent south-west breeze. The competition started with accuracy and then the T38, S55g and T120 before the lunch break. The #5, #7 and ST27 were then cast after the lunch break and AGM. As always the distances are in feet and inches:

#5F – Bart De Zwaan 138.02; Paul Arden 128.05; Dean Bass 119.08; Mike Heritage 119.03; James Evans 119.01; Kei Okamoto 116.00; Zhongxiang Zhu 111.05; Lee Cummings 110.05; Lee Martell 107.07; Tracy Thomas 106.06; Mick Copeman 102.06; Lisa Isles 101.03; Howard Bishop 94.10; Dominic Hewitt 92.07; Vince Brandon 92.05; Marina Gibson 91.10.

For once we had a nice wind for a BFCC casting competition, a steady ~10mph blowing from the north-east. The temperature was warm enough for the casters to be in T-shirts all day, probably for the last time this year.
