We had the TPA Committee of Management meeting at Ross on Sunday, during the meeting there was discussion on how our State ISSF & PA teams are chosen and following the debate it was decided to open up the criteria to Club Rostered shoot scores as long as they are signed by the Range Officer and a Club Official.
It was felt there may be members out there that due to various reasons may not be able to attend State & Open Championships and therefore not be eligible for selection.
I have attached a revamped nomination form, if the secretaries could put one on your notice boards and distribute amongst your members as widely as possible please.
The nomination forms that have already been returned to me are satisfactory and do not have to be replaced.
If anyone has any useful news items, please get in touch.

Not much news on the shooting scene this week, I have attached the program for the Open shoot at VDPC again and hope to see a lot of you there.
I have also attached a photo of how to test your trigger weight at home, over the years I have seen all sorts of weird and wonderful ways, but I was speaking with Dean Brus in Orange and he passed this one onto me which is very simple, most kitchens these days will have digital scales as part of the required gear.
I got a 3lb honey container, bent a piece of wire each end at 90 deg. Cocked the firearm and hung the contraption all on the trigger, making sure the barrel was vertical and started pouring water into the container until the hammer fell, then weigh the container and don't forget to include the wire.
As long as your scales are accurate you will get the correct weight of your trigger.
If someone has got a better or simpler way, I am all ears.

I have attached the program for the State Championships to be conducted at TP&RC on the 15th, 16th, 17th October at Kerry-Ann Crlik request, we realize this is very early but hope that it gives you time to slot the date in and make the time available, it is a new direction to have the titles at this time of the year and we are hoping on them being successful, there are a few extra incentives for grade shooters to attend, so please do.
If the Secretary of each club could distribute these and put a copy on your notice boards Kerry and the TPA would be grateful.
Don't forget the "NOMINATION FORM" for State ISSF & PA Service Team selection, to go to the National Championships in Adelaide next Easter,
