    Question Looking for a Pistol Club Near Hatfields Beach – Recommendations Welcome!

    Hi everyone,

    I’m interested in joining a pistol club and am currently based near Hatfields Beach. I’m relatively new to the sport and am looking for a local club where I can train, practice, and meet fellow enthusiasts.

    Does anyone know of any pistol clubs in or around the Hatfields Beach area? Any recommendations on clubs that are welcoming to newcomers or have good training programs would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hatfields would be Warkworth Pistol Club. there are a few others in the greater Auckland area. All pistol clubs will have established training systems and will welcome new starters.

    Yep Warkworth would be your best bet.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Thanks for the input. I heard there’s also one in Riverhead or Dairy Flat. Is anyone familiar?

    Just checked Warkworth Pistol Club:

    I am a member of the Omni Target Club. The club subleases the NZDA 25 metre range and meets 26 times a year (roughly every fortnight). You could contact the club secretary regarding membership on omnitargetclub@gmail.com
