Very cool! I am jealous of the Swiss for embracing shooting as a sport like the Canadian government did 50 or so years ago. Good way to train the populace without having to go through the additional training and expense during military service but who is listening, eh ?

The Vancouver Swiss club won the competetion in 2005, here's hoping they do it again!

My (swiss) wife stood beside me and translated the videos for me. That computerized scoring system looked really sharp.

Over 2 million shots during the week-long event.

I wish this was published more for the Canadian public to see.

I wish this was published more for the Canadian public to see.

Ordinary citizens shooting for recreation? With BLACK rifles? The Canadian public isn't ready for that. Probably never will be. I can still remember the fuss about the shooting part of the Biathlon in the '88 Olympics in Calgary...

 

[diopter]

Those twenty clubs are ALL of the Swiss shooting clubs outside Switzerland
