Bushveld 3-Gun Champs

 

To all the competitors who participated in the 3 gun Level III

/Bushveld Champs in Polokwane 18 – 20 November. 

It was a most enjoyable tournament because of the very positive

and friendly attitude from all the competitors. 

I want to mention Squad 1 [the slow squad] especially for their positive and

helpful attitude, and specifically Eddie Smith for setting the example

of how to be positive on the range and make the shoot enjoyable.

A huge thank you to you all.

Daan Kemp
Range Master

 

The Bushveld 3 Gun was held over the weekend.

Congrats to the Boys and Girls in Limpopo for hosting
