Thread: Ruahine NZDA Hunters Biathlon 2015

The 2015 Ruahine NZDA Hunters Biathlon will be held on Sunday the 17th of May. This event combines movement speed with field target shooting and is a good event, with some great people and there are prizes to boot. The course scoring is heavily weighted towards shooting so it doesn't really matter how fit (or unfit!) you are though if you want to win then you will need to shoot well!

A few entry requirements:
$25 entry fee,
Two courses, both courses are about 1km in length and typical course times are about 15-20 minutes,
Targets between 20m and 350m,
40 shots required,
No full length magnums (unless you talk to me beforehand and I specifically allow it),
Any rifle with any scope,
Bring your hunting gear as you will be expected to compete in it (day pack, boots, etc.).

So there are limited entry available, if you competed last year or you are a Ruahine NZDA branch member then you have a guaranteed spot this year. To confirm your entry get in touch with Jasen on 027 574 6955. Spectators are more than welcome and there will be a BBQ and refreshments at the end of the day.

Any event questions get in touch with me. For the event location get in touch with Jasen.
