The CZ Extreme Euro Open is an IPSC level 3 shooting competition held annually in June at the Hodonice shooting range near the town Znojmo in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic. The match is organized by the company Extreme Gun Group, Ltd. and the Extreme Squad shooting club.
The match is divided into a Pre and Main Match, where the Pre Match is for the Range Officers later working at the Main Match as well as representatives of the match sponsors. The Main Match lasts three days (Thursday, Friday and Saturday), and is divided into morning and afternoon shifts. On Sunday, the best shooters from the Main Match vie for the Shoot-Off, which was changed to the Super Six format in 2015. Then the six best shooters from the Main Match in each division and some categories compete in an eliminiation round across three stages. The match is finished with an award ceremony.
Lubor Novak from the Czech Republic is the Match Director and founder of the match, and Wieslaw Geno Sioda from Poland is Stats Director.

The range was built in the 1990s from a former gravel pit, and its 28 shooting bays and total length of more than 500 meters makes it one of the largest outdoor shooting ranges in Europe. The range has a parking lot with capacity for 100 cars, an office building, sanitary facilities, space for chronographing and safety areas.
