Discover Whangarei Rifle Club

The Whangarei Rifle Club is a dedicated hobbies and special interests club focused on gun sports, providing members with opportunities to engage in target rifle shooting. Participants enjoy three main disciplines: F-TR, F-Open, and TR, each demanding unique skills and knowledge to master while instilling core values of marksmanship and rifle etiquette. Our sessions run fortnightly from September to April, utilising an advanced electronic target system that displays shots accurately on mobile devices or e-readers for immediate feedback and precision training. This setup enhances the shooting experience, making it accessible and engaging for all levels of shooters in the Northland region.

Our Disciplines and Training Approach

Each discipline at the Whangarei Rifle Club offers distinct challenges that build confidence and expertise in rifle handling. F-TR emphasises tactical precision, F-Open allows for customised equipment setups, and TR focuses on traditional target rifle techniques. Despite their differences, all promote safe practices and respect for the sport. The electronic target system revolutionises practice by providing real-time visuals, reducing guesswork and allowing shooters to analyse and improve their performance instantly. This technology ensures every session is productive, whether you're refining your aim or learning proper etiquette.
