Thread: Long Range Hunting and F-Class Target Shooting.

Having read most of the coments and I follow them with great interest.

Shooting has changed all over the world, people are less inclined to shoot the disiplaned of yesteryear. 4P and simular disiplanes has slowly been getting less and less support.

But the 4 basic positions are still important, we still need to get shooters to practice them....but expecting them to pitch up for 4P every weekend? Thats like beating a dead donkey.

Something Ive seen that works is clubs that developed new dissiplanes, with different targets(Life sized animal targets with score zones are very popular. )

Something like this.
To practice unsupported standing:
Target = Pig(brought side)
75m - standing or kneeling- 3 well aimed shots in 60 seconds.
50m - standing - 3 shots in 30 seconds.
25m - standing 3 shots(snap fire)
(5 seconds per shot)


There are so many different ideas one can do to make it interesting.

Maybe I should put my hand up for Shooting Coordinator at my local club. Not all that often that the position comes up
