SECTION Director 

Lester was around when the club first began helping with the set up with much of the gear and range facilities we enjoy today. He has represented NZ in ISSF shooting and after some time down south has returned to us in Central Otago. Lester has a vast experience in shooting and is the main trainer on the ISSF range.

ISSF For April 2022

Picture
Greetings fellow ISSF members,

​With Omicron cases continuing to rise in the south, & Easter in mid-April, I am not scheduling any matches for April, & will review the situation at the end of the month.
But you can attend the range on Sundays, & on Wednesdays from 3pm, shoot a match/do some training, & sign in for your attendance. Also, if you shoot an airpistol match at home, send your score to Robert & you will receive an attendance.

The shotgun, & primers mentioned in my last newsletter have both been sold. As you will most likely be aware there is no CCI or Hornady .22 target ammo available to purchase, & none in the next Hornady shipment either, & I doubt CCI will be available this year. BUT, I have been very fortunate to be able to secure & purchase 5000 rounds of CCI .22 target ammo, which I will be picking up next week. Therefore if you want a brick, let me know so I can book you one; price is $90 per brick of 500.

You will all have received notification of the current move by police/govt to enforce much stricter rules on shooting ranges. Robert has sent around the ACT email, so make sure you make a submission before the due end date in early May. If you need another email, let me know & I can resend(also the NZDA email).

That's it for now; hope to see you on the range.
Tight groups.

Annual Report from Lester

Greetings Club Members.
     The ISSF Section has performed well over the past year, with member numbers gradually increasing, & performances getting better as the year progressed.Most of out shooters regularly participate in scheduled matches at least twice per month, but I think some more training exercises before matches would benefit everybody.
     Trainees have gradually been getting Cat.'B" licences allocated, but for some it is becoming a long process. Hopefully this will improve in the near future.
     I understand one or two of our regular members may be moving on due to consequences of the Covid lockdowns, & while they will be sadly missed, jobs & livelihood must come before sport. I wish them all the best.
  Our section is waiting anxiously for the target frame modifications on our range to be completed, & for our 50m frames to be installed. This will give the opportunity for shooters to try out the Free Pistol event. Any further development to have an Airpistol range available would also be much appreciated. Once all range modifications are complete we will consider holding a graded competition. 
   Lastly, I would hope that after the election our sport will be better represented & looked after.
   Tight groups.
    Cheers,
Lester K

What is ISSF

From Pistol New Zealand Section Director MARIA JEFFERIS
Picture

Picture
For readers new to ISSF allow me to make and introduction, The international Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) based in Munich controls shooting sports at the Olympic Games all the pistol events at the Commonwealth Games and the Oceanias.

The main events are 10 and 50 meter pistol and 25 meter pistol events which require autoloaders or revolvers.

ISSF is different from all the other PNZ shooting disciplines for two reasons. First, only ISSF shooters compete at the Olympic and Commonwealth Games. Other disciplines have their internationals as well, but none of those events equal the status of the Olympics or the CWG.

The second difference is that everything is done to emphasise the individual shooter and to minimise any technical or other advantages one person might have over another. Everything being equal and constant, the only variable is the shooter- and that person's skill, talent, motivation and determination.

Winning medals at prime international events like the Commonwealth Games or the Olympics is ultimately what ISSF is all about. But we like to have some fun getting there!
Keep an eye on this website for regular updates on Pistol New Zealand's ISSF section activities.
