2011 Triple Classic of Sporting Clays

OK people just got through talking with Ben Husthwaite about the Clay Shooting USA Triple Classic to take place May 3-8, 2011 at Rio Brazos Hunting preserve outside of Houston, TX.  I can’t explain how awesome this shoot’s going to be! More targets and More prize money than ever!

Estimated $100,000 prize fund!! A whole week of shooting available!!  Your shooting arm will literally suffer medical trauma if you shoot everything that’s available!!  You may have to be carried from the field of play on a stretcher.

300 target main with an expected $250 entry fee!  That’s a deal! 

In addition to many other sporting events there will be a 150 target NEW STYLE FITASC.  Ben says 3 pegs per parcour.  A chief Ref from the UK will preside.  BTW Ben will be setting all of the event targets by himself with 300+ Promatics throughout the events.

Ben says, "This is a shoot for shooters, by shooters.  This is what they’ve all been asking for and I guarantee a mixture of European and American style targets, it will be a fair playing field."

There will be a pro-class with it’s own fees and payout structure so the average Joe M guys have a chance.  They determine who is pro-class.  Waiting on the specifics of this class.

Entries open soon.  They will have a booth at Nationals to take entries but I suspect online entries will open before then.

We need to support this shoot!  The Clay Shooting guys have run their Classic shoot in the UK for a while and they know how to do this.  It’s a very popular shoot.  They stuck their necks out on the last Triple Classic which went to the USA, UK and Russia and pulled it off!  It will be first rate!
