The Battle for the Buckle continues on, and we can clearly see the Finals starting to take shape!
For the Bowhunters, Cody Stacy came out firing and took advantage of the Double 14's and carded a season high 361, keeping him in the #1 spot! Another solid outing from Jacob Dawdy has him sitting in 2nd place with John Jacobs right behind him in the #3 Spot. Todd Adler, Jerald Krenek, and newcomer Will McDaniel have all moved into the Top 6!
In Ladies, Laira Stacy fired off a 307, all but solidifying the #1 seed! Maddie Smith fired off a solid Saturday 306 locking up the #2 Seed. This shoot off is going to be fun to watch!
Trad didn't change as Cooper Collins and Robin Rodriguez have all but guaranteed their showdown against each other!
Our Youth Archers have really got a solid competition going on. Taylin Myers came out and fired off a 358 and a 311 taking her up to the #2 Seed, putting her behind our #1 Youth Archer right now, Korbin Archery Korbin Pate! He sits atop our Youth Leaderboard in the #1 spot and will be looking to hold onto that heading into the last shoot of the year. Everett’s Archery Everett Pawlik is right on the trail, sitting 2 pts back behind Taylin Myers and only 21pts off the #1 Seed. Ayden Harris had a solid Saturday getting himself in position to lock up #4 Seed, but he has Jewelee Arriaga right on his tail only 25pts back. We expect a showing from Stockton DeRouen for the last shoot of the year which may shake things up a bit! Watching this unfold is going to be a ton of fun!
STX Open had a superb showing from Owen Sansing, who fired off a 352, jumping him ahead of Jason Whiddon into the #1 Spot. These two in the shoot offs are going to give each other some problems!
