 Howdy all.

The 2025 Alabama State Championship is on the books for May 1st through the 3rd at the Cavern Cove Competitive Shooting range. 
The stages are designed by Deadlee Shooter, they will be big, close and fast.

We will have Mollys Buckles for the category winners.

 

Thursday May 1st will be our side match day.

The Long Range side match will be shot on targets 75, 100, 125, 150, 165, 175 and 200 yards.
Most likely will be a pot luck dinner on the range.
 

Friday May 2nd we will shoot 5 stages and then have the side match awards and a meal under the pavilion on the range.

 

Saturday May 3rd we will shoot the remaking 5 stages and then that evening have the main match awards and dinner under the pavilion on the range. 
 

Sunday May 4th we will have a charity shoot to benefit Saint Jude’s. This is a charity shoot I set up a few years back, the shooting fee is donations only, the Cowboy shooters have been very generous in their donations. Thank you.

 

We have camping on the available.Most of the sites available are 30 amp with water.

Maybe you'll shoot this one outlaw?

Hoping to be there again!

Seeing as this is the weekend after KY State up at Pondarosa Pines we will plan to stay an extra day or two at Joes then head down to Alabama.

This is now two weeks after KY State, dont plan on staying that long with Copperhead

 

TKD save my camping spot.

Deadlee how about some round count stages so us gifted shooters (GF) can cornfuse the spotters.

Spring is just around the corner.

If I were going to shoot one of the Magnificent Seven Outlaw it would definitely be Kentucky State (but I’m not).

Will do. 

Round count for gunfighter? Does that equal who is going to have a train wreck?

[Marshal TKD, Sass # 36984L]

Sadly Black Patch Distilling will not be there. They are closing up shop.

Planning on it.  Thanks for posting the Long Range rules; this year I'll have sights ready for something other than 200 yards!

No problem Jake. I decided to post it here rather than solely rely on email to inform folks. 
Now ya just gotta figure your Maximum Pointblank Range.

Shootout is coming together!  Theme is Guns of the Old West!  Hope to see y'all there!  (I'm not planning on recreating my swan dive from Ambush, so if you missed it, too bad!).

I think we are going to need to put bubble wrap around your and Drake's camper steps.  Maybe some of those Amazon packing peanuts.  Lots of them.

How about some more information about this Sunday Charity Shoot.  There is nothing I can find on the website about it and is only mentioned here.  I would like to know so I can plan accordingly.

Thanks

+we will shoot five of the ten stages from Shootout.  Will start at 9 am on Sunday morning.  Round count would be 50 rifle, 50 pistol and 25 shotgun. Thanks for asking.  100% of the shooters fees and donations will go to St. Jude's.  Minimum fee is $20, and you can give what you want past that.
