Some of those target presentations were from Satan himself.

I shot 38/50 in the 2021 qualifier and 28/50 in 2022. I don't think it was just because I downgraded from an 8 gauge to a 12 gauge

I watched the shoot off from near the tree line on the right side of the course looking out and 3 of the targets looked brutal from there. The #1 target looked like an SR71 Blackbird going out. The target quartering away right to left also looked like a rocket and if you couldn't tak it early it started to arc down and the slower looping left to right target from the middle of the field was fine as a report pair but combined with one of the rocket targets in a true pair looked really challenging as well because it just wasn't in the air very long. It took great shooting by all of the participants in the event.

This year was my first experience in the main challenge event . My performance wasn’t great and wasn’t horrendous. But like anything else , I’m never really satisfied .

Default 16-20 Events

I don't believe this has been mentioned previously but Team Parker did win both the 16 and 20 gauge challenge events. I do not have the names of the qualifying individuals. Maybe someone else does. It was hotly contested, I believe the 16 gauge event was won by one bird while the 20 gauge event ended in a three bird differential.

Thanks for sharing your photos, Mills. It's nice to see the shooting participants.
