Thread: Te Kuiti Hunter Fied Shoot

The Te Kuiti Hunter Field Shoot will be held on Sunday the 15th of June 2014.

The aim of this field shoot is to get hunters out practicing their shooting under field conditions i.e. non-standard distances, terrain based wind patterns, odd angles and potentially uncomfortable shooting positions. The shoot will be set to simulate hunting situations and will use the contour of the land to provide a variety of shots.

@mucko will be handling most of the details i will only be there to setup and run the shooting side of things. There will be limited entry spot availible so get in touch with @mucko if you are interested in coming along.

The event is aimed at hunter's so bring along your hunting gear and give it a go. Competitors will need 20 rounds each and targets will be between 20m and ~350m. Anything under a full length magnum calibre is fine. If you have something bigger then get in touch with myself and depending on what it is and how hot you have it running I may allow it. This event will not be a biathlon though - i won't make you run... far.

A couple of details that mucko and I have not finalised yet include - entry fee (expect $20 TBC), safety briefing time (9:30am probably), BBQ afterwards? We may also be running a clay target stage at the end of the day.

Should be a good day though. We won't be hard core on the competition side of things so it will be a pretty social affair. Will try and set a couple of easier stages along with a couple of harder stages to keep thing interesting. A good opportunity to come along and meet a few fellow forum members!
