Re: robert mitchell match?
Rocky Mtn now branded Robert Mitchell, is typically the first full week in February and has both air rifle and smallbore. If you look at the past results/dates on the USAS website it should give you a good idea of general timeline and events. USAS just hasn't released the 2018 schedule yet which ta...

Re: Palmyra Open
Winter airgun and jr olympics are two of the best if not the best places for college coaches to observe. They want to actually watch her shoot. Several of the college teams are hosting air and SB matches now set up just like college matches. After these the coaches usually give a talk and interact ...

Palmyra Open
I know that probably the best place for collegiate exposure (to coaches) is probably the USAS National Matches at Fort Benning but I've heard that the Palmyra Open is also pretty good at being attended by college teams and coaches... My daughter is only a junior this year so I know there won't any d...

Bear in mind that local range rules trump all competition rules, at least they do where I shoot. the range officers at the Junior Olympics made it abundantly clear that the co...
