Youth Top Gun

        When the club started the youth shooting program two years ago it was decided that there would be a youth TOP GUN  title. The title is awarded each year to the youth shooter with the highest score for the year. The 2011 TOP GUN was Brad Sandroni and Luke Allen is the 2012 TOP GUN.   

       In order to qualify, the shooter needs to be no older than 17 years of age at the time they shoot.
There are Kuneytown Sportsmens Club Official .22 caliber rim fire rifle Youth Shoot Targets in the range shed.
Shooting is six shots off hand at 50 feet and six shots any position ( sitting, kneeling, prone, or bench rest) at 50 yards.  Once the target is shot  it gets posted on the Youth Shoot Top Gun leader board located in the range shed. If someone scores higher than the target posted, the higher score gets placed over that target and becomes the new leader. At the end of the year whoever has the highest score is named the Youth Top Gun. That person is given a laminated certificate with their actual target on the back while another laminated certificate is on display inside the range shed for years to come.
These shoots can be done at any time during the year but do require a club member to be present. So take a youth shooting at the club range. They could be the 2013 YOUTH TOP GUN.


How about we start a Kuneytown Sportsmens Club TOP GUN open to all members in say .22 rimfire rifle and pistol for starters? If  interested leave a yes comment on this post.
