2016 Top Shot Competition

2016 Top Shot Flyer

Please Note: All ranges will be closed for general use during this event!

On Saturday, June 4th at 8:30am, the Andover Sportsmen's Club is hosting our second Top Shot Competition (for 18+ members and their families only).

This competition will be a lot of fun and during this exciting event you will compete in 4 different shooting sports:  Archery, Pistol, Rifle, and Shotgun. This is a true test of a person's skill and not how good their firearm/bow is. To this end, everyone will use the same bow/firearm type to shoot the best score possible in the allowed time (contestants will be allowed to take practice shots before their scoring shots).

This is an informal, fun competition. You do NOT have to be a great shot in all the disciplines to enjoy it and even win one of several prizes! The $30 entry fee gets you a shot at $800 in cash prizes (based on 40 shooters), and free breakfast from 730-830am.

PLEASE BRING EYE AND EAR PROTECTION ONLY! LEAVE THE GUNS AND BOW AT HOME, BECAUSE YOU WILL SHOOT THE SAME WEAPONS AND AMMO AS EVERYONE ELSE!

So if you think you have what it takes to be the club's Top-Shot, click on the link below to sign up. Space is limited so don't delay! Sign up at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/asc-top-shot-tickets-25333263473.

Saturday, June 4, 2016 - 8:30am to 4:00pm
