Gday Shooters,

Big shout out the 10 volunteers that showed up on Sunday for the Maintenance day, you guys smashed it.

This Sunday 6/9/26:

Range 4 - 5 stand Shotgun

Fees per round:
$10 per round
25 targets per round
Usually 3 rounds on the day

Please arrive at 9:30 for safety brief and set up.

5-Stand has five shooting stands or stations that are lined up in a straight line close to each other. The stands are surrounded by six to eight numbered traps, which throw targets in every possible direction, including from behind, towers, vertical shots and rabbits, with all targets generally converging in an area in front of the stands.

Competitors rotate through the five stands and receive an identical mix of targets in a random order, with single and double targets presented. This provides a real test of a shooter’s ability to read targets quickly and shoot them before they get beyond the effective range of a shotgun.

5-Stand is conducted with a computer and the course can be as easy or as devious as the course-setter decides. One round comprises 25 targets, and because the competition is compact and relatively quick to shoot, it can be very tempting to shoot five or six rounds in a day.

Please let me know if you want a $10 BBQ lunch before Wednesday.

Ill see you out there.
