Anytime a shooter hits their first 50 in a row at the tipple we toss up a hat with some clays in it and let everyone shoot it. It makes a nice keepsake for the shooter and something they’ll always remember.

Well we couldn’t have scripted a better ending to our Friday night trap matches for 2026.
On April 17th we had our first bounty match of the year. It was set at 50$ if a shooter were to hit all fifty birds (25 from 20 yards and 25 from 24). Most ranges this happens quite often but it’s tougher at the tipple. Shooting uphill and into a narrowing funnel really makes it tough. Well long story short we added to the bounty each week. There have literally been dozens of diff shooters come and try their luck. We’ve had numerous 49/50. But tonight Jody “Jodacious” Campbell went on a tear and obliterated all 50 birds. We’re very proud of him and are in awe of his accomplishment.
Terry Litteral and Ward Dickey both hit 47/50 and tied for second place. Rock Allen takes third with 46/50.
Congrats to those that hit money birds: Chris Halsey, Wayne Mayabb, Tanner Lawson, gunner Dickey, Bob Patton and terry Litteral.
Gunner Dickey takes top youth.
Rock Allen and Wayne Mayabb both clear the line on the last man standing match and elected to split the pot.

Like I said this is our last Friday match of 2026 due to tomorrow’s time change. We’ll go to the weekends going up until the spring time change.
Our next match will be Sunday November 8th at 2 and it will be from the 16 and 20 yard line.

Thanks to everyone for coming out tonight we’ll see ya next match!!

Stats from the PRS match yesterday. When I wrote the course of fire I kinda thought the hardest stage was the turret Terror stage 7 with an inverted troop line. But it ended up being one of the easiest. The little blue Jeep still seems to be our toughest stable prop. The half inch pipe on it is what I attribute the difficulty to.
All in all it was a good match and point distribution was great. Furthest shot was 162 yards making this by far our closest range prs match.

We had 13 shooters out today for our PRS match. It was absolutely perfect shooting conditions with great temps and calm winds. The scores were about as tight as they could be with one impact between the top several. Goes to show you that every shot matters in this game.

Jheremy Zetans takes the win with 76 impacts out of 82 shots.
Steve Marmaduke was right on his heels with 75 impacts for second.
Josh adkins comes in third with 74 impacts.
First time tippler and new shooter Mark Rosquist takes top semi.
Top lady goes to Lainey Kemp who hails all the way from Australia. You read it right Australia. We heard fascinating stories about everything from wombats and unscented petrol to Australia’s insane gun laws. It was very cool to hear from someone from other side of the globe.

Thanks to everyone for coming out today. It was really a great day to shoot and we appreciate everyone for traveling to us today. There will be match stats to come later.
