5th- Robert Brandley
Category Winners
Top Senior- John Sneed

Personally, I love seeing my friends succeed and shooting to their best ability and that is a large part of why I do this. Whether it is someone moving from 100th to 90th or 20th to 2nd I enjoy seeing people's hard work produce results.
As you guys know, these events are no where near possible with out RO's, so we are extremely appreciative to them for spending their weekend with us. These guys work hard all weekend to provide the shooters consistent and fair course of fire.
We are grateful to Greg Moore coming out and taking pictures this weekend. I've seen his work over the years and the talent this man has is impressive! Thank you!
A special thank you goes out to the Platinum Level Sponsors.
Many of y'all know me (Jim) but the AP staff makes the wheel turn and they do it on little sleep! Emily and I are forever grateful for the friendship we have with the AP staff. Ben Pinkleton, Chuck Liveoak, Sarrah Weston, Brent Stokes, David Saunders and Keith and Stephanie Rosetta. These guys do a mountain of behind the scenes work on weekends like this!
