Long range forecast is looking pretty good at this stage.
Few showers with light winds but Monday/Tuesday looks immaculate so let's hope it blows forward a day :)
It won't be canceled so rain hail or shine.
It's called character building ;)
Good to see a NZDA branch being active and promoting themselves and the nzda association, hard to get new members and retain them with busy schedules and other distractions these days, I might put the feelers out for a Napier v Hastings branch gong shoot at the meeting tonight.
Out of interest how's the attendance etc
To be honest the Manawatu Branch is like many through out the country "seen as an old boys club" I know plenty of guys that have come to a meeting & aren't in a hurry to return, but Shootm, Blaser & a few others are trying hard to get the club more proactive with good speakers, organising shoots, hunting trips & get together's.Quote:

PS- Apologies for my absence at the Man meeting tonight, I'm busy reloading for Sunday :thumbsup:
Totally agree, seems alot of other clubs are suffering with the modern world distractions.Quote:

Huge thanks to @Shootm and @Blaser and whoever else helped put it all together.

Yep it was a great day again and thanks for a great run event looking forward to the next one :thumbsup:
Just got home from clearing away gongs. Good day had by all I think, lots of holes in the ground around the gongs so yes a little challenging with the little breeze there. Had a count of 27 at one stage I think there were a few late comers so close to 30. Cheers @Pop Shot for the photos as usual I only took a couple.
Forgot to say thanks to @300wsmPete for your 2" gongs. Hit the 300yd ones a couple of times.
Thanks also to @Blaser it takes a bit of time setting up.
Some good shots like this at 410yds

And some not so good at 230yds
