Shooting

“The purpose of the Hunt is to promote the ideals of good sportsmanship and game conservation, while placing significant emphasis on comradeship, ability in the field and accuracy with a big game rifle.”  

It is a combination of events sponsored by the One Shot Antelope Hunt Club and the Past Shooters Club.  Although the schedule for the 2019 activities has not been finalized, there are core events that are annual. See an example schedule below. Activities will start on Wednesday September 18, 2019 and conclude Saturday September 21, 2019.

SUBMIT A CHALLENGE

Teams are selected to participate on the basis of written challenges issued to the One Shot Hunt Club Board of Directors.  Eight (8), three(3) person teams are selected from the challenges received.

How to Submit:
To submit a challenge, each team should provide a biography of each team member.  Biographies should offer the board a good sense of who each member is individually. Each year the Board receives more challenges than we have open slots for.  Therefore, the mission of your challenge is to convince us that your team should be one of the teams that we select.
Review & Deadlines

We start reviewing challenges as we receive them (as early as November) and strive to have all selections finalized by March 31.  We suggest that you submit your challenge as early as possible.
