The island’s ‘favourite’ Hungarian rounded off the English skeet summer season in the same way as he began it at Ayre Clay Target Club last weekend - as the man to beat!
Paul Mihailovits was the winner of the final round of the league at Blue Point.
The Ramsey marksman hit 47 out of 50 targets to seal top spot, two clear of his nearest compatriot Jeff Corkill.
It was his fourth victory out of six rounds in the discipline’s summer league, sponsored by Penketh Millar.
