Thank you to everyone who attended the January 2-3, 2016 Sporter – Unlimited 5-Shot Arizona State Championships. This match will combine with the January 30-31, 2016 Light Varmint – Heavy Varmint Arizona State Championships to create a combined 3-Gun and 4-Gun Aggregate.
Thursday and Friday were the practice days for the match, and there was plenty of wind for practice on these two days. Then suddenly on the first day of the match, the wind disappeared and gave us the best January match we have seen in recent years as far as weather and wind is concerned. Saturday’s temperatures were in the high 60s for the majority of the day and there was a little wind throughout the day.
Sunday gave us more of the same great conditions. In fact, conditions were so nice that at one point it looked like two shooters might be getting close to breaking records. Duke Rovarino started out with a very nice aggregate in the first two matches, and then Larry White caught up to him with matches 2-4. If Match 1 would have gone a little different for Larry, we would have seen a contender for the Unl5 5-Shot 200 Yard Aggregate NBRSA Record!
Larry White took first in the Sporter Grand Aggregate and Duke Rovarino took first in the Unlimited Grand Aggregate. In the end Larry White came ahead and took home the wood for first place in the two gun aggregate with a 0.2304” Grand Aggregate. He was followed by Duke Rovarino with a 0.2454” Grand Aggregate and Randy Burgess with a 0.2594” Grand Aggregate. All in all we saw many good scores this weekend and were thrilled to see a few screamers and eight shooters with teen Aggregates in the 200 yard Unl5 Grand Aggregate!
We are looking forward to the 2nd half of the 2016 Arizona State Championships later this month and hope that you will be able to join us on January 30-31, 2016. We’ll see you there!
