Guys and gals, the Manufacturer’s Cup awards are ready for their new homes. Shooters, make sure you mark your trophy round scorecards with the gun manufacturer. The top five scores from each manufacturer will qualify for each team. You can only shoot for one team. You can qualify with any 50 bird event score. Your highest score will be your qualifier. The shoot-off will take place after the Fox-Parker shoot-off Saturday afternoon.

The annual Fox-Parker Challenge will start the shoot-offs at 3:00, Saturday afternoon. To qualify you must shoot one or more 12, 20 or 16g 50 bird trophy rounds and mark your score card for Fox or Parker. Your high score will be your qualifier. Top five shooters will qualify. The scores shot by both teams will be used for the Manufacturer’s Cup scores too for Fox and Parker.

The “King of the Hill” or “Top Gun” shoot-off will cap off the day. The top ten scores in the 50 bird trophy rounds will qualify. Teams will be set (1&10, 2&9, 3&8, 4&7, 5&6). Each team will get 4 sets of 3 birds on report. Both shooters must shoot in order or have a bird called “lost”. Miss and out is the format. We did this last year and it was a hoot!! Stick around and watch, you’ll be glad you did!
