16 SSAA Griffith hosted the 2021 5-Stand State Titles on 26 June 2021. The choice of this date was rather propitious, as it was just before a lockdown was called. Two 5-Stand layouts were set up by Branch Members Justin Badaco, Sig Kubank and Greg Allen. The bush around the hilly range was used to simulate some excellent field targets worthy of a state competition. The day was cloudy and overcast with a strong wind, causing some interesting targets. The SSAA 5-Stand shelter was popular in the poor conditions. Visiting shooters attended from Forbes, West Wyalong, Hay, Hillston, Deniliquin, Albury and Narrandera. Local shooter Bart Brighenti took out the High Gun with a top score of 83/100. AA Grade: 1st Greg Allen, 2nd Ryan Leman, 3rd Steve Horneman A Grade: 1st Michael Elmes, 2nd Justin Badaco, 3rd Rodney Eisenhauer B Grade: 1st Michael Scarfone, 2nd Michael Rombola, 3rd Jacob Foster C Grade: 1st Dayne Foster, 2nd Mitchell Clarke, 3rd Dominic Fattore Ladies: Lisa Sheen Veterans: 1st Sid Guglielmino, 2nd Lance Brissenden, 3rd Jeffrey Pagett Super Veterans: 1st Bruce Duncan, 2nd Warren Brown For the highest consistent score over a series of state shoots, Greg Allen was crowned 2021 NSW 5-Stand State Champion.
