Kiwi Shooter Commonwealth Games 2014 GOLD MEDAL:

Well done Sally Johnston - A much deserved Gold Medal for 50M prone small-bore rifle. Such an achievement when you learn that her rifle bolt and all her ammunition went missing on the flight up to Scotland and still hasn't turned-up!

 
Sally who won a Bronze at the Commonwealth games in Kuala Lumpur 16 years ago is a "Southern Girl" being born and bred in Invercargill at the bottom tip of the South Island ('Mainland') New Zealand - now lives in the capitol city.
 
 
Sally (who is reported to have a couple of 4s in her age and keeps fit by doing 'pole-dancing' twice a week!))  has been able to celebrate with her parents  who are well pleased to have watched her compete and win in Glasgow. Her parents  Ken & Jenny are both shooters.
 
Other team members have done well but missed-out in the medal scramble. - Some of them are moving-on to the world championships in Spain next month.
 
Well done Sally and good luck to all in Spain.
