NORTH DUNEDLN GUN CLUB

The above club held their shoot on Saturday last, when a large number of shooters journeyed to Tahuna Park (a piece of wHich ground the club have now secured for holding their matches) to compete for a trophy presented by Messrs Briscoe and Co. The wind was rather strong, which rendered the birds very tricky, consequently the shooting on the whole was poor; but two of the old Dunedin Club veterans (A. Cowie and R. Vinnecombe) showed that they were as keen of eye as m former days. The following were the principal scores for the open match :—A. Cowie (winner) 11, it. Vinnecombe 10, A. Kina 9 4 Byrne 9, A.
