    Default .22 golf ball challenge

    Although I shoot IPSC pistol , 3 gun and are a active member of my hunters association , I have to admit ... I have a serious weak spot for .22 rifles and handguns, they are "VET PRET"


    I have long been advocating a .22 shoot at our Richards Bay Sport Shooting Club (RBSSC) and have finally taken the plunge and organized a .22 shoot in the form of:


    1. A .22 golf ball challenge , shooting golf ball sized (42mm) targets (pendulum) at 100M with a .22 rifle. 10 shots at for every shot missed you make a R10.00 donation to the local SPCA.


    2. A "Know your limits" pendulum shoot at 50 M with targets of 50, 45,42,38,32,25,19,12mm. You nominate your "limit" if you don't reach it you donate R5.00 to the Local SPCA.


    Given by the pledges of "I don't know if I will be able to do it " or "I don't have a .22 rifle can I use yours /someone's on the day " "I will just give my R100/R140 and have a go" it seems to have stirred some interest. Even two journalists from the local newspaper are interested and positive.

    Can't wait to see the amount of participants we will get

    Perhaps next is a "mini .22 gong shoot" who knows?

    Change it to you get R 5 for a hit and lose ten for a hit. May get more takers with the challenge having a chance of being not just a "You Lose R10"
