Sportsman’s Warehouse Third Annual Utah Shotgun Showdown

All Shotgunners in Utah are invited to
the Sportsman’s Warehouse Third Annual Utah Shotgun Showdown


Show`down: n. (Inf.) an action that brings matters to a climax or settles them.

The Utah Shotgun Showdown, sponsored by Sportsman’s Warehouse, challenges shot gunners in a grueling two-day, two-location, multi-discipline shotgun competition that will settle the matter of who really is the hottest shot in Utah!

The Showdown begins at the Provo Gun Club on Saturday, July 14 at 8:00 am for 25 skeet targets, 25 five-stand targets and 50 sporting clays targets. The competition moves to the Heber Valley Gun Club on Sunday morning for 25 singles, 25 long yardage and 50 doubles trap targets. Cash prizes will go to the highest overall score in the Men’s, Women’s and Junior’s categories. High gun in each of the individual events will also win cash prizes.

“Most shooters participate in just one of the shotgun sports - Amateur Trapshooting Association, National Skeet Shooting Association or the National Sporting Clays Association,“ says Wendy Mair, Event Organizer. “So, this event is unique in that it challenges shooters to get out of their comfort zone, try something new and meet some new shooters that they wouldn’t normally get to meet on their regular competitive circuits.”

Last year’s competition drew almost fifty shooters from all over the state. Contestants received generous door prizes and gift certificates to Sportsman’s Warehouse and one lucky raffle winner went home with a brand new Stoger over and under combination shotgun sponsored by Sportsman’s Warehouse.

“This is the most fun shooting event of the whole year,” says Cody Adams, a Junior competitor who, along with his dad, competed in the 2005 and 2006 Shotgun Showdowns.

Registration forms can be picked up at your local Sportsman’s Warehouse or downloaded from their website at www.sportsmanswarehouse.com.
