Forum members, because of the overwhelming success of the Louisiana midrange championship in the past several years, and because of the very high turnout we've have for the match, Palo Alto has decided to split up the F-CLASS championship and the PRONE (sling) championship this year. The F-CLASS championship match was held this past weekend (OCT 1-2) with great success and is in the books. Above is the match program for the PRONE championship October 29-30th 2016.

Please come out and enjoy LOUISIANA'S 2016 PRONE CHAMPIONSHIP and Palo Alto's fine facility.
 
I have moved from Houston, Texas to Chandler, Arizona. I said this because I went for about 3 years, to both the Spring and Fall Championships. The competition there is the stiffest anywhere this country has to offer. The range is one of the most difficult to master. The people there are some of the finest people you would ever want to meet. The match is run like a well oiled Swiss watch! Had I not moved, you can bet I would be there. I URGE anyone who is considering going to a competitive event, it is my opinion this would be THEE ONE to go to! You will LOVE IT!! T-Rust me on this one! If you do well enough to come out in the top 1/3 of the competitors, you can consider yourself a very successful competitor in your own right!
 
Thank you Ben for your kind words regarding the Palo Alto range. We'll miss not seeing you there. Below is the SR-1. Somehow the link above is not working.
