Helice Target

Client: Helice Shooting with Cottonland Gun Club at Kiper Farms

Glynn and Mindy Kiper are North East Louisiana farmers with a passion for shooting sports. Like a lot of hobbies tend to do, their love of shooting the various disciplines of sporting clays grew into a business. They first built skeet and trap fields on a section of their farm near Mangham, Louisiana but were soon introduced to the sport of Helice shooting.

Helice shooting is an off shoot of live pigeon shoots that were popular for a time across Europe. Helice or ZZ birds as some call it, is some what similar to trap although 5 different target throwers with random presentations replace one trap machine. Helice targets are also not made of Clay used in traditional sporting clays targets. Instead they are made of orange plastic propellers with a center white cap. When a target is called for, the targets are already spinning and a single random target is released. If the shooter hits the target, the white center cap must be knocked free and fall within a ring or fence marked on the ground.

From the random nature of the targets to the materials used, All of these factors create a target that flys more like a live bird than any other form of competitive shooting. Where as a Trap tournament may require hundreds of targets to declare a winner, Helice tournaments are typically decided with just 30 targets.

Project details

Current Video Work

Cottonland Gun Club now features four Helice rings of their own as well as Skeet, Trap, and soon a traditional Sporting Clays range. They’ve grown and continues to be one of the nations leading Helice tournament locations. The spring 2021 Helice Open tournament sanctioned by the US Helice Association was held at Cottonland Gun Club. Below is our most recent video produced for Cottonland Gun Club which features this event.

Early Video Production

Starting in 2014, Riverbank Products was asked to film a short video highlighting a Helice tournament held at Kiper farms. The video was, at the time, one of the few Helice videos that could be found online. There were only aproximately four Helice rings found in the US. Since then, the sport of Helice has grown as has the Cottonland Gun club.

Website Management

In 2020, Cottonland Gun Club’s website had become very dated and was due for a refresh. Mindy Kiper contacted us and we began developing a new web presence for their business. The new website incorporates their branding and provides better information, about the Shooting Range and upcoming events. Riverbank Products was also able to take current photos from their events. This makes sure guests actually know what to expect when planning to visit for their next tournament.

Event Photos

Riverbank Products also takes great action shots and event photos. Below are a few of the images caputured from the 2021 Spring Helice Open Tournament.
