There is a Entry fee for all the event which you can buy on the spot, for further clarification you have to call organizers number provided on the advertisement bill attached on above post.

Hope it helps

Hi Rajit,

I attended this event last sunday with my daughter and I must say it was quite well organized. It was the first time either my daughter or I were participating in a competition like this.

There were the following categories to shoot:

1. Air rifle - Target was eggs places at 15 mtrs
2. .22 Rifle - Target was a coconut placed at 50 mtrs
3. 12 bore with bird shot - Target was a coconut placed at 20 mtrs
4. 12 bore with slug - Target was a coconut placed at 20 mtrs

My daughter, who is 16 yrs , and I participated in all of these categories. I think she was the only girl below 18 to shoot in all categories and she handled the shotgun quite well for a first timer.

Participants who didnt have a gun were given one along with ammo by the organizers. Ammo being charged extra at Rs. 50 for 2 x .22 cartridges and Rs. 100 for the Birdshot and Buck shot each.

Lunch was included for the participants and non-participants as well.

We enjoyed being a part of the event but if you are keen winning, you need to get your own weapon because you will know how it shoots and your chances will be very high.

Since we didn't have ouw own gun, except for the air rifle, we had to use the one that the organizers gave, without much success because you dont have enough shots to get used to the gun. For .22 Rifle, you are given 2 shots to quality and for the shotgun, you are given one shot to quality.

The old single barrel SBBL shotgun I was given had a problem with locking and when I shot the slug round it just opened up at the breech.Luckily, nothing serious happened. Will share a video on what happened.

I saw some good shotguns and will remember two of them. One was a Beretta over and under and the other one was a Greener, Birmingham with a Martini action.

My daughter and I are hooked and are looking forward to attending more events like this in the future.

I tried posting some video of the event , apparently the website does not accept .mp4 , . mov, .avi and .mwv format.

Dont know what other formats it accepts.

Cheers
GVS

@GVS

Kudos, nice to hear your overwhelming experience Sir, I believe you have liked the format of the event, your experience will encourage more participation of shooters.

As you mentioned one thing is for sure,To increase the possibility of winning you must have your own weapon with hands-on shooting experience with it, and you must have to zero the gun to exact distance of the event. and obviously skills, And confidence of handling nervousness and tension overcoming fear of failure in front of glaring crowds.

Beauty of the event any one can participate without any restriction,

This format event have the potential to attract more people to this sports.


To share the video you have to upload it in third party platform like Google drive or Youtube etc. and share the links here Sir.

I had missed to add this information that I have witnessed in some places of shooting event held earlier in Coorg would also had variable distance and position of target some times they increase the distance and change the position/elevation of the target and some times they will reduce the distance and elevation/position of the target after first round,

apart from that in tie-breaker or in last rounds/moment they might increase or decrease the distance of the target elevation and position of the target.



For Example:
1)Working situation like large numbers of participents 2)When large number of Participents clear first rounds
3)Non of the participants have cleared first round
4) And in last rounds when there is tie
