We shot on Sunday, the first time I’ve ever shot targets while it was snowing and still a fun day.

A big warm stove keeps us warm between rounds. We are open Saturdays and Sundays during the winter months and shooting usually starts around 10. Greg usually has the stove going by then.

Our next big event will be our Boxing Day TurkeyShoot. You can come up for some practise before then or we’ll see you on the 26th.

I met Victor Camele at Italian Sporting Goods last week and he pointed out their discount pricing for target loads.

Discounts for clubs and individuals.

It all started in April with some significant blasting on site to prepare for out new Skeet field.

This summer we completed a new skeet field as well as another trap field. Now we’re just tidying up a few items before winter comes.

We will be open all winter for Kelowna skeet and trap shooters on Saturdays and Sundays starting at 10:00 am. When it’s cloudy and dull in the valley, quite often you can come up to the club and find yourself above the clouds on a beautiful bright day, great for seeing targets!

Our next Turkey Shoot is November 24 followed by PITA Multiplex on December 1. All are welcome.

The Central Okanagan Shot Gun Sports Club will hold its AGM on November 21st at 6:30pm to be held in Steve Coutts Office at  101-1465 Ellis St. Kelowna.

All Members and guests are welcome.

Make note in your calendar to come up and join us for some fun and great prizes.

Our calendar now includes dates for our monthly meat shoots. All take place on the 4th Sunday of the month from October to March. The December shoot will be our Annual Boxing Day shoot.

Bob, Greg, Yvonne and Steve were the first to try out the new set up on our second skeet field. More info on our Grand Opening to follow. Both fields will be well used with 3 major tournaments scheduled for next summer. The high house and low house are completed and the new skeet launchers are in place. Time now for some painting and prettying up the place a little.

Thanks to all the members/volunteers and whose efforts and financial contributions made this field a reality. Special thanks for Bob Larue for purchasing the launchers.

A number of members of Central Okanagan Shotgun Sports Club signed up for the NOTSC Labour Day Classic and four days of shooting in Vernon. In this Squad Pat, Pete and Geoff joined by Kelly from Surrey, B.C.

Greg instructing his daughter who has never shot before. Maddisen is right handed and left eye dominant so Greg taught her left. She nailed the first target and both are pleased with the result.
