The Spring Special was won by David Franklin of DURC with a score of 132.1 (a new Irish record). This may come as a surprise to those of you who attended the competition, but an error was discovered whilst reviewing the scores after the match.
On the day, David and Conor McDermottroe were tied on the last shot and Conor won the shoot off by 1.2 points. However it was discovered later that the scores for round 6 were not included in the totals and therefore all eliminations from Round 6 onwards cannot be relied upon. With the inclusion of the Round 6 scores, David and Conor were no longer tied and since David had the higher score in the final, first place has been awarded to him.
The amended scores are in the attached results sheet. Because of the error, third place will not be awarded.
This was the first match held in Ireland under the new competition rules. It's unfortunate (but not surprising) that a mistake was made, but on a positive note, everyone present felt the changes were for the better. Special thanks to Barry Russell; who on short notice and even shorter training, ran the final for us. |

The winner of the 2012 Co. Wicklow Open was Gary Duff who shot a 595 in qualification and a combined total of 697.9. Gary was followed closely by Conor McDermottroe with a 593 and 694 overall. In third place with an excellent 582 was Liam Kinsella of Dublin Rifle Club.
Apparently the warm wind was not a factor although some competitors felt that not being cold was a disadvantage as they were becoming too comfortable.
