Meet Ben Fabian from Centaur Sporting Club who invited me and the other ladies attending our Girls & Guns event at Orston Shooting Ground to go and take a look at his Practical Shooting Event. I was very privileged to meet the amazing Jessica Hambrook, the under 18 🥇 Olympic gold medalist 🥇 for S***t, and share our first experience of shooting in this discipline. Check out what we got up to, and stay tuned for a film with Ben about his work in this amazing sport!
LATER is definitely better than NEVER! What are you waiting for?!

🔥 STAGE REVEAL #4 🔥
🏆 Stage 4: Ropadope
Ropadope is a stage that rewards patience, observation and disciplined ex*****on.
At first glance it may appear straightforward, but with multiple shooting positions, no shoot targets waiting to catch the unwary, and steel hidden throughout the course, competitors will need to balance speed with accuracy.
🎯 16 IPSC Steel Plates
🚫 4 IPSC No Shoot Targets
💥 Birdshot
The challenge?
Finding the most efficient route through the stage whilst avoiding costly penalties. Every unnecessary movement and every missed target will add valuable time.
Competitors who can quickly identify targets, transition efficiently and maintain accuracy under pressure are likely to come out on top.
👀 Take a look at the stage plan and let us know:
🎯 What would your route through the stage be?
🎯 Which targets would you engage first?
🎯 Where do you think competitors will gain or lose the most time?

🔥 STAGE REVEAL #3 🔥

🏆 Stage 3: Toro!

The pace changes for Stage 3.

Toro! is our first buckshot stage of the match and is designed to test a competitor's ability to remain calm under pressure whilst managing moving targets and making good decisions.

This may only be an 8 round stage, but don't be fooled by the low round count. Every shot matters.

🎯 2 IPSC A3 Paper Targets
🎯 4 IPSC Steel Plates
🎯 2 IPSC Poppers
💥 Buckshot

The challenge?

The two poppers activate swinging targets, creating a stage where timing, target priority and ex*****on become critical. A rushed approach could cost valuable points, whilst hesitation could leave competitors chasing moving targets.

As with many things in practical shooting, smooth may prove faster than fast.

👀 Take a look at the stage plan and let us know:

🎯 Which targets would you engage first?
🎯 Are you going to take time and load extra?
🎯 Where do you think competitors will gain or lose the most time?
