Casa de Campo’s 25th annual Sugar Shooting tournament will be held this week, in Casa de Campo’s 245 acre tropical shooting grounds from Wednesday April the 25th through to Saturday April the 28th.
The annual Sugar Shooting tournament is part of the “Sugar” event, which today incorporates a golf component headed by Alfy Fanjul which was played recently from March 28th to the 31st (click here for photos and coverage), as well as the shooting component headed by Pepe Fanjul.
The by-invitation-only event will take place at Casa de Campo’s world-class shooting facilities; the 245 acre Shooting Centre in Casa de Campo as well as at Rancho Peligro, located about 1 hour’s drive into the Dominican wilderness from Casa de Campo (or considerably less if you arrive by helicopter as will Pepe and his guests) is a beautiful wildlife reserve and where “Driven Birds” shooting takes place.

The participants of the 25th annual Sugar Shooting tournament will enjoy a “Driven Bird” shoot at Rancho Peligro on Wednesday and Thursday in groups of about 7 men, each taking part in 3 drives with the release of approximately 450 birds (pheasant and partridge.) On Friday and Saturday the tournament will continue at the Casa de Campo Shooting center for the clay shooting component with groups of shooters touring through the Casa de Campo Shooting Center on golf cart, which has 10 different shooting stations, each with their own unique challenge.
As well as the shooting, participants and guests of the 25th annual Sugar Shooting tournament will enjoy a variety of evening activities, such as a welcome cocktail in the Marina Casa de Campo, as well as a prize-giving celebration and dinner at Casa Grande, the Fanjul’s Casa de Campo estate.
