Golden City Club Shoot

Saturday and Sunday were two days of eating, drinking, sleeping, dreaming shooting.

The longest shooting days we have ever had.

The heat was extreme and the dust with all the new ranges being build for the SA Champs at Golden City next year left us hot and bothered.

Not enough to take away the sheer joy of shooting.

Ten stages with minimum of 179 shots and we decided to shoot Standard and Production Divisions. That meant twenty stages and loads of ammo.

Richard was once again very accurate but the time plays havoc with the score when we have these jams

I had one really disastrous round where the Range Officer had to unjam my gun it was that
bad.

Sunday was Production Class for us with our CZ Shadow 9mms.

My time improved vastly and once again we learned loads.

One thing that is a great advantage learned today, but took two or three stages to master was that the first shot in Production is mostly double action unless told otherwise in the stage brief. Now we learned that you can half cock the hammer and it is still deemed double action on the first shot.

Much easier when you get the hang of it.

Thanks to everyone that shot with us.
