Central Gauteng League 7

Our Squad

On Saturday our South African sun beat down on us in typical summer fashion.


Dylan In Action

No matter where I travel - there is nothing like a South African sun beating down on you.


Then there is nothing better than shooting on a glorious day like this.

We met members of the club that we had never shot with before and each time we learn a bit more from seasoned shooters.

Thanks Abraham, Wayne, Mark, Brad, Dylan, Nigel, Jon - we had a super day with you.

Then a big thanks to Snipers for a fabulous shoot. The ranges were really good and I could even motor on some of them.

Limpopo Open Clay Target Shooting

All the clay target shooting seems to happen at this time of the year.

Two weeks ago we were in Bloemfontein for the Free State Open, now here in Potgietersrus (Mokopane) for the Limpopo Open and in two weeks time it is Kimberley.

It is beautiful up here in the north with Friday being in excess of 30 deg but Saturday and Sunday were much cooler.

We stayed at @Marula in Potgietersrus and took the trip out to Al Thandiwe each morning which is just 27km to the east on the road to Zebedlia.

The Universal Trench range is new and Richard had the honour of shooting the first round on it on
Friday during practice.

Saturday the wind pumped. There were only seven shooters divided into two squads which makes it a bit difficult for the shooters as the whole process is so quick there is no time to settle in on a stand before it is your turn to shoot again.

Sunday was super conditions to shoot in with good scores coming in.

All in all a much better organized shoot than Bloemfontein with Richard taking gold in his division.
