    Default Swarovski Gong Shoot 2023

    What is the Swarovski Gong Shoot.

    The first shoot was hosted by KZN Hunters back in 2012. Recently handed over to renown match director Norbert Hellberg, this year promises to be one of the very best. A premier shooting event, the Swarovski shoot is one you definitely don’t want to miss. Platrand lodge again plays host to this event, so you will get to spend the day surrounded by natural beauty.

    The shoot consists of 6 ranges, 5 gongs per range. All ranges will be given, and range finders are encouraged. Gongs are 200mm with some 100mm thrown in for good measure. Distances range from 150-450m, and the shooting positions are all hunting style scenarios.

    You entry includes morning coffee and rusks, light lunch and an amazing supper with prizegiving.

    Get behind the glass, and experience Swarovski Optik products and spend the day with us!

    What would be really nice is if organisers would include the date in these posts.

    Hey, I'm just the messenger here, I copied that from the Facebook link.

    Best to phone the event organisers to make sure, I guess.

    I did the Hog Down in Estcourt a couple of times. It was field going shooting and despite not being very good at it I had an absolute blast.

    What an awesome shoot and weekend!

    Won’t talk about the guy who kept shooting down the gongs with his 300 PRC. Won’t mention names either
