Default Duluth SxS Event

My nephew took me to my first official SxS event in Duluth yesterday. I was in awe through the whole day! I met some great guys, Mike Koranda and Randy Zahn to name a couple. The courses were well laid out, trails well groomed, and everything seemed to be 'in its place' for all events. The caterers did a swell job with the evening meal, too. Maybe next year I will give 'er a whirl (I went as a spectator)!

Dear Sir:
I am glad you like our venue! I do hope you participate next year. The Duluth Double Gun Classic is always held on the 3rd week-end in July. You can find more information about our shoot by looking at our web site duluthdoublegun.com
Your nephew contributed to our $6000.00 total payout of cash and prizes by giving the Grand Prize of a week stay at a Northern Minnesota Resort for 2 people. The resort, Barney's, offers fishing and grouse hunting opportunities.
We had 68 shooters shoot the main event on Saturday and another 10 shoot our All-Bore course on Friday and Sunday. We offered a 5-Stand for practice, a "Try it Before You Buy it" trap as well as shooting games. We threw 15,400 targets and most of them were hit!
Tom Toenjes was High Over-All for the second year in a row. It was the first we had a repeat winner! Tom received Cole Johnson's Ruffed Society Artist of the Year framed print for his effort. Doug Braker was runner-up and received an English Speed Bag for his fine effort with is 28 gauge. Our shoot is handicapped for gauge and Doug proved that the little guns can hold their own!
Please give me a call at 218-525-5528 if you need more information about next year's event and thank you for the kind words.
