This was the first year of the NRL Hunter Battle of Rattlesnake Butte put on by Caleb Connor and Nick Depperschmidt and boy did they come out with a bang. This match had extended distances, small targets, and some challenging conditions with snow and wind. I shot on RO day and it snowed basically all day on us. Although the conditions weren't the best, we still had a great day of shooting.
Throughout the entire match I dropped 12 total points bringing home the overall win and my first open heavy win of the season. If you are interested in shooting an NRL Hunter match, feel free to reach out and we can chat about the benefits for hunting and how match shooting translates to hunting!
