    the club is a long needed facility and it is my opinion that it will flourish as Moore ranges are added.
    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

    It will likely mean that a pistol being (lighter and shorter than a rifle) is far more easy to arc around with just a bend of the wrist Ryan.

    In about 20 years of IPSC shooting, most of the DQs I've seen (from Ungraded to Master grade shooters) at shoots ranging from club shoots on a Saturday afternoon to Level 4 matches, have been from breaking the 90° rule while flicking the pistol around.

    180°? Might not be able to shoot half a course of fire with a 90° rule😆

    The rule is 90°. Read the IPSC rulebook.

    "Rather than a club, the owner had been a keen motorcross rider who rode and did stunt jumping with his friends once or twice a week during the summer months, neighbours said. They sometimes went and watched the acrobatics."

    Hmmmm I wonder what that sign with brass letters says, that's been dug up and put to one side halfway down the drive? I'll try to get a picture

    Hats off to the guy for putting his personal funds up for his own 'field of dreams'....something the region desperately needs.

    With pinko socialists such as Brown, and now Goff running the show, there's little hope of anything resembling the TECT Park that Tauranga has, ever being given approval, and built for the people of the region, even if only partially funded with ratepayer money.

    There will be three of us there on Sunday morning. We will be the ones that look like Curly, Moe and Larry.
