Five Minutes with Eley Hawk Sponsored Shooter, Phoebe Bodley-Scott.
Discipline/Quarry:
Olympic Skeet.
How long have you used Eley cartridges?
3 years.
Favourite load(s) and why:
24g 9s – 24g is the maximum permitted shot charge by the ISSF. 9s should give me the best patterns at skeet distances.
What do you love most about Eley cartridges?:
I use Eley Olympic Blues. I love how the 24g 9s feel on my shoulder… and I just love the smell!
Gun(s) used:
I use a Beretta DT11 Skeet Competition gun with 28” barrels and a modular stock.
Greatest shooting achievement:
At the 2023 European Championships in Croatia, I shot a 120/125 qualifying score. This was a new European and British record for a Junior Women.
Competitions won in last five years:
2023 European Championship Junior Team Bronze
2022 British Shooting Grand Final Women’s Gold Medal
2022 Junior World Cup Team Gold
