The other noticeable point here is that KO2M SA participation has escalated to the same level as KO1M SA. Registration numbers are neck on neck, which shows growth in the South African ELR world. It is inevitable we will have to double the KO2M SA qualification range next year, just like we do for the KO1M SA, or else it will be a struggle to get through the number of participants in a day. So, next year we will have to purchase a duplicate set of targets and erect another set of target stands in the field. It is quite funny. Each year I tell myself that we now have all the event infrastructure necessary and will not have to spend money the following year on more. However, year on…

The state-of-the-art shooting range complex is nestled in the heart of the Cape Winelands on the Lourensford Wine Estate in Somerset West.

A large contingent of shooters travelled from the Western Cape to Hanover in the Northern Cape, about 700 km one way. At this event 26 (out of 49) Western Cape shooters competed in the KO1M event and 23 (out of 48) in the KO2M match. Most shooters chose to take part in both events to gain experience and shoot more rounds. This strong provincial representation is due to the vibrant ELR shooting community in the Western Cape. To display unity, we had Send IT branded caps and jackets made for all Cape Town based shooters. On the front of the caps the phrase ‘WIND WARS’ was embroidered in a bold font. If only we knew how true these words would be in capturing the difficult shooting conditions awaiting us. A…

The WP Open Bisley Championship is a three-day event held annually in October, attracting a combination of the best local and national shooters to the Good Hope Shooting Range near Atlantis. Many of the shooters at the event participate in the annual South African Open Championships, normally held in Bloemfontein around the end of March. This year was no exception, with the field featuring several previous WP and SA Open Bisley champions. The event took place from 5 to 8 October 2022. As you unpacked your shooting mat and rifle, your eye caught the string of bright red wind flags lining the sides of the range. During the morning’s first distance just after 08:30, the wind flags were alive and twisting, signalling that the forecasted south-westerly wind was busy brewing…
