PRACTICAL SHOOTING
Located in the heart of the Vertus vineyard slopes, the STC Vertus IPSC range offers a truly exceptional setting. Nestled within a former chalk quarry, this unique site combines history, nature, and performance. Its 11 bays provide as many independent shooting areas, perfectly suited for practicing dynamic shooting in complete safety. This mineral landscape, both unusual and immersive, makes the Vertus range a well-known and highly appreciated venue among shooters, far beyond the region.
IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation), also known as practical shooting, is a modern and dynamic discipline based on a simple principle: combining accuracy, power, and speed. Unlike traditional static target shooting, IPSC features shooting courses called “stages,” where the shooter moves through a defined environment, engaging multiple targets—static or moving—while on the move.
Each course is unique and requires the shooter to think strategically: deciding the shooting sequence, movement paths, and reload timing, all while strictly adhering to safety rules. The final score takes into account both accuracy and time, making the discipline highly technical, engaging, and enjoyable.
Accessible to all with proper supervision, IPSC is a discipline that encourages personal progression, self-control, and self-improvement. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced competitor, everyone can find a challenge suited to their level in a friendly and passionate atmosphere.
At Vertus, practicing IPSC means experiencing something truly unique, in an extraordinary environment where sport, nature, and technical skill come together to deliver unmatched sensations.
CLAY PIGEON SHOOTING
Clay pigeon shooting at STC Vertus is also set within this remarkable environment, in the heart of the vineyard and within the unique setting of the former chalk quarry. This location provides a perfectly suited terrain for the discipline, with open spaces that allow for varied and natural trajectories, while ensuring a high level of safety.
Clay pigeon shooting is an accessible and enjoyable shooting sport that involves shooting at clay targets launched into the air by machines. These targets simulate the flight of game, with varying trajectories, speeds, and angles depending on the setup. The objective is simple: break the target before it hits the ground.
Several formats exist, such as sporting clays, compak sporting, and trap shooting, each offering different shooting scenarios. This variety allows shooters to enjoy different experiences and progress gradually, whether they are beginners or experienced shooters.
Clay pigeon shooting requires coordination, responsiveness, and concentration. It is a friendly discipline where you can quickly find enjoyment while continuously improving your technique over time.
At STC Vertus, clay pigeon shooting is practiced in a welcoming and accessible atmosphere, with appropriate supervision to support new shooters. Whether for a first experience or regular practice, everyone can progress at their own pace and enjoy an exceptional setting to fully experience this discipline.
RECREATIONAL SHOOTING
Recreational shooting at STC Vertus takes place in the same exceptional setting as the club’s other disciplines, at the heart of a former chalk quarry. This unique site offers a მშვიდ, secure, and particularly pleasant environment, ideal for beginners or for practicing shooting with complete peace of mind.
The range features 25-meter and 50-meter shooting lanes, allowing for different types of firearms and shooting styles. The 25-meter range is especially suited for precision shooting with pistols or revolvers, while the 50-meter range is ideal for rifle shooting under more technical conditions, particularly in terms of stability and trajectory control.
Recreational shooting is based on a simple principle: taking the time to master your technique, breathing, and concentration in order to hit the target with precision. Unlike dynamic disciplines, calmness, consistency, and discipline are at the core of this practice. It is an excellent gateway into the world of sport shooting, accessible to everyone, without the need for immediate performance.
