-

Ma. Inez Feria Jorge and Wilfredo Anglo ruled their respective divisions as the Philippines came away with two gold medals in the 15th World Shoot of the International Practical Shooting Confederation in Bali, Indonesia last week.

Jorge, of Team True Weight Philippines, dominated the Production-Ladies category, besting a tough field that included shooters from Russia, the Czech Republic, Australia, Norway, Italy, Thailand, Papua New Guinea and Brazil.

Jorge, a bemedalled shooter and veteran internationalist who trains under mentor Jojo Naranjilla and strength and conditioning coach Jimbo Saret, also reigned in her division in the 2007 Austral-Asia Championships in Pattaya, Thailand.

Anglo, on the other hand, took the gold in the Production-Seniors category, topping 41 other competitors with an impressive 1894.6547 points.

 The World Shoot, held only every three years, is considered as the Olympics of Practical Shooting featuring the best shooters of each IPSC member region.

The recent event consisted of 36 stages and was participated in by over 1,000 competitors.
