The course was set out over six traps at the very lower end of the range. There were a couple of mishaps and problems with traps, but the set up crew were quick to fix them.
They also had some brilliant targets set out including a cheeky rabbit playing hide and go seek with the shooters as well as an incomer sticking to the trees making it hard to get before it hit the ground.
The targets were fast and furious and kept the competitors on their toes.
The “Bush Challenge” was sponsored by two groups, as the side by side shooters were sponsored by Bruce Arthurson of Classic Racing and Performance Engineering, and the under and over shooters were sponsored by Far South Coast Excavations.
The overall winner of the handicap challenge was John Lehmann 117 using his trusty side by side. Congratulations must also go to Mark Gschwend and Simon Weeding who both shot 25 out 25.
The girls at the barbecue set out a beautiful spread as well as the people that bought cakes and salads and Darren and Jan Redman who kindly donated burgers and sausages to the club.
The club’s next event will be “Muzza’s pairs”, a 112 target shoot on Sunday, January 28.
The Bermagui Field and Game Club is located on Murrah River Road, south of Bermagui. More information about the club is available on their website http://bermaguifieldandgame.info.
