Thread: 2019 Toby Goodley Memorial shoot

Hey everyone, as I said before seems I've kinda ended up with the organizing duties this year, shit there's nothing worse than a bossy gnome lol

However - I thought I'd just touch base with how things are going


I & Brads have received some PM's re the shoot so just to clear a couple of things up & go over things again, focused more at those that haven't attended before just read through the whole thread, the details are there but here's some det's

* This year there is no compulsory attendance fee, With the accommodation fees etc we have decided to scrub all that shit, We're not into milking people for money ( it's expensive enough already ) but a donation would be appreciated, weather that is supplying or buying something from the auction.


* With out sounding like a Nazi, All happy, positive & responsible Forum members are welcome, you can come to only the shoot if you like but there will be a "hat" donation to cover targets & lunch. exact location details will be provided closer to the date.

* Only the shoot is a Brads ( aka Duncan & Mel's ) farm, they have invited us to use the range & that's it ! There will be a sign in book & everyone who comes to the range needs to sign in.

* Lunch will be provided on Saturday for all attending the range shoot ( this in nothing to do with Duncan or Mel ) it is being paid for by another very generous forum member, please don't take advantage of the hospitality.

* We will have a pre-safety briefing & the range will be patrolled by designated range officers, please use common sense & listen to instructions.

* The morning will be a free for all gong shoot, there will be a separate 100y sight in range available with a range officer for the first hour in case you need to check your zero.

* It's a "down the line" shoot, so there will be an area for braked & suppressed rifles

* We will have the trophy comp after lunch, these will include the freestanding 300, consistency & 2000y big boy comp, but we are working on a "hunting rifle" trophy that will be a little more realistic for average Joe blow but still reward good shooting.

* The range will be closed at 4:30

* Prize giving, dinner & the auction will be head at Pukeora, just to be clear You don't have to stay there but that's our base so please book a meal with them. There are other options in Waipuk to stay at or maybe even a forum member who will host you. But beware we do not support drinking & driving so make sure you have a get home plan please

* Re the auction - I will have a mix of things on offer & will sort with admin to have a bank account available for funds raised.

* Partners are more than welcome, Main thing is come, have fun, talk to people & enjoy your weekend.
