Superstition Mystery Mountain 3 Gun

Another amazing match put on by the local folks here in Arizona.  The match is held in Mesa at the Rio Salado Sportsman Club.  This year they decided they wanted to have some fun with the shooters, and oh did they ever. 

On stage 7 there were only 8 rifle targets, easy right.  HA, these targets were sensor targets that would only go down if you hit them twice.  To make it even more interesting, these targets were set up in 2 target arrays at 4 different distances.  From the first box/prop you saw 6 targets, from 50 yards to 150 yards.   The trick, these targets were set up on a timer, they would pop up one target per array at a time.  The other targets were from a box that you had to run to…..no big deal there!!  It was a lot of fun. 

On stage 9, they decided it would be hilarious to see how people could shoot from a parachute harness while pulled up at an angle against a prop.  LOL, I wish I had pictures to post, we all looked funny.

As usual the match was great, and we all had a lot of fun. 

This was also the first match for the filming of FNH 3 Gun Nation, brought to you by Surefire.  The film crew was worn out after 3 fun-filled days of shooting.  With over 100 competitors signed up for 3 Gun Nation, we finally got down to our last 8 shooters for the shoot off.  Check out www.3gunnation.com for videos and details!
