Natives drought is broken!

Warmest congratulations to Natives Rifle club's newly minted Queens winner, JOSH PRATT. After joining Natives in 2016 as a 13 year old, Josh's shooting has gone from strength to strength, and unlike many of us, he has not yet found a plateau.

Now 18 years young, what impresses most is not the upward trajectory of his fine shooting, but the hard work, good humour and steely resolve that has underpinned these results.

We have all been fortunate to share in Josh's growth into a fine young man, and a trusted and respected member of the team and club. Well done on this incredible achievement Josh. We are all immensely proud of you and look forward to a long future of Queens Prize wins.

Stand proud mate.

Josh Pratt wins the NQRA Queens 2021.
