Pollies vs Press
Pollies from both sides, the press and shooting stakeholders got together for the annual Christmas event.
Busting the many myths and promoting the many benefits of lawful shooting and hunting is why the Parliamentary Friends of Shooting was formed.
Many are aware that shooting has produced some of Australia's greatest Olympians and Paralympians, but we want to also promote the many economic, environmental and health benefits of recreational shooting and hunting.
What better way to do it than to get the media involved in an annual Pollie vs Press event. This year's event was washed out but it didn't stop us from getting together to celebrate the sport, some wins for the industry, and the impressive trophy donated by SIFA - Shooting Industry Foundation of Australia's CEO James Walsh.
