A number of ranges are in yeards and not metres. The only Fly shoot in the Sydney basin is the Silverdale Fly shoot which has been running for about 10 years. It has and always will be just 200 yards. It may mean we can not hold a championship, but we enjoy it all the same. Not alot of difference between the two distance, this year a bunch of us from Silverdale went to Batemans Bay Championships and Finished 1, 2nd , 4th, and 6th and also took the top junior position as well - Most had never seen the range at Batemans or not shot at the longer distance, just a couple clicks and away we went. The wind at Batemans bay was more of a problem for the Silverdale guys then the extra few yards. The scores were about 20 points down on what would have been shot at our home range as a result.
