Involved in the Esperance Pistol Club (EPC) since 2000, Bartle uses the sport to release whatever pent up aggression, tension or frustration might have been brewing during the week on the target ahead.
Chances are, she is not alone.
With a strong membership, the EPC has taken onboard both men and women as well as encouraged families to join their ranks.
Bartle was first introduced to pistol shooting by her brother.
“He thought it was something I would enjoy so I came out and realised I thoroughly enjoyed it,” she said.
