Nationals Day 5 – Final Day – Sparta, IL 🎯🇺🇸

That’s a wrap on Nationals! 💪🔥

We finished out the week shooting our final 100 and ended STRONG. It was another warm day, but this team pushed through and gave it everything they had all the way to the end!

Competing alongside over 1,400 shooters, this team truly held their own on a big stage 👏

After a long week of competition, we stuck around for awards and had a great showing:

🏆 Awards
• AIM Lever Action Jr Gold Shoot-Off – Logan Hart
• C Squad – Sub Junior A Class Runner-Up
• A Squad – Junior B Class 3rd Place

🎯 A special shoutout to Noah Innes and Colton Nunn for receiving their 100 straight patches—well deserved after those perfect scores! 💯👏

We are beyond proud of this team—not just for how they shot, but for the sportsmanship, work ethic, and memories made throughout the week. From early mornings to long, hot days and late nights at the campground… this is what it’s all about ❤️

Now it’s time for a long drive home, but we’re bringing back a week full of memories and accomplishments!

Nationals Day 4 – Sparta, IL 🎯🇺🇸

Day 4 was all about TRAP—and the heat was no joke! ☀️🔥 With a high heat index, our shooters battled the conditions and still showed up BIG 💪

We kicked things off with our first 100 rounds of trap and had some AMAZING scores across the board!

Shoutout to Noah Innes and Colton Nunn for shooting a PERFECT 100/100!! 💯🎯
And an extra big moment for Colton—this was his FIRST perfect score!! 👏🔥

After cooling off, the fun didn’t stop… it was time for some Annie Oakley competition 😎

This team is putting in the work and having a blast doing it. We’re locked in and ready for our FINAL day of Nationals tomorrow—let’s finish strong!! 💪🇺🇸

Nationals Day 3 – Sparta, IL 🎯🇺🇸

Day 3 brought it ALL—rain 🌧️, heat ☀️, and a whole lot of shooting!

Our shooters powered through 100 rounds of handicap and 100 rounds of doubles today, showing grit and determination no matter the conditions 💪🔥

Shoutout to Jesse for placing 10th in Handicap after an intense 14-way tie in the Junior category—way to compete!! 👏🎯

We wrapped up the day the best way we know how—with a fish fry at the campground 🐟 and celebrating multiple team birthdays 🎉 It’s moments like these that make Nationals about so much more than just shooting.

Proud of this team and everything they’re accomplishing out here. Let’s keep it rolling! 🔥

Nationals Day 2 – Sparta, IL 🎯🇺🇸

Day 2 is in the books! 💪

We wrapped up our sporting clays and even took on some of the extra shooting challenges (not pictured 👀). These shooters are putting in the work and making the most of every opportunity out here!

When we’re not on the course, you’ll find us riding bikes 🚲, hanging out at the campgrounds, and just enjoying the time together as a team. The memories being made this week are just as important as the scores!

We’re having a blast and getting more ready by the day—stay tuned for what’s next! 🔥👏
