Hi and thanks for this informative website.
Just a note & I know you are unpaid(!) but how long before the link to "Starting Shooting" is available?
I and a few friends have been reading up on F Class wherever we can, and would like to get started but not sure where & how!
regards

Hi Chris
There are a few of us F-class shooters competing at the Swanbourne range in Perth on Saturday afternoons. You and your friends are more than welcome to come for a chat, see what goes on, and put some holes in targets. I'm sure we can get you started. Send me a PM and we can tee up a meeting at the range.
Meanwhile, keep an eye on the posts here for some good info.
best regards
Mark

Aaargh!
Posting without logging in doesn't work well - must engage brain first.
Chris see my post above which came through as "guest" rather than Mark Hamersley
I hope to hear from you.

Chris,
Sounds like you've been lucky enough to get the attention of one of the top F-Open shooters in your state. I hope it all works out.
Mark,
Thanks for that. One of the main aims of this website is to help attract new shooters. The Starting Shooting section of the site has been left till last, and probably shouldn't have been. Because some aspects of this section will be State specific, I'm intending to do Victoria first (hopefully within a week), then ask for help from someone from each other state. Depending on who puts their hands up and how quickly they can provide the info, hopefully we can have it fully functional within a few weeks.

To all,
The Victorian section of
Starting Shooting is now complete (apart from the addition of some contact details, which will hopefully be added soon). I'm hoping to get some of you from other States to put your hands up to supply the equivalent information for your own States. All that is needed is details of the differences, and that will be enough to do another State page. It would be preferable to have a single person from each other State do it, or otherwise there may be confusion about who's doing what etc. As offers of assistance come in, I'll make them known on this thread. There has already been a kind offer from SA, so that leaves WA, NT, Qld, NSW, ACT and Tas.
Remember this should be of direct benefit in attracting new members to your clubs, so the sooner it is done the better. Please PM me or E-mail the webmaster if you can help. Thanks.
Alan

Chris...
Swanbourne Range offers disciplines in both Open F class (to 8mm calibre) and Standard F class (5.56 or7.62 calibres) and we have some of the best shots in Australia and would welcome you to us.
You can ask for Tony W, Bill H or Geoff O at our Perth Club and would be keen to get you up and running.
See you on Saturday afternoons
Regards Geoff
