What’s the best part of any match? The SHOOTOFFS! Yet how many shooters are allowed to participate? In 1992, Paul Miller of San Juan Range in Montrose Colorado had a dream. Why not let EVERYONE participate? An all Shootoff match.

For 15 years, Paul ran the most unique pistol match on the face of the planet. American Handgunner magazine, STI International, and a host of sponsors supported his efforts, and thousands of shooters had the time of their lives. The format? Two shooters face mirror image banks of targets, the start horn sounds, and the shooter who knocks his targets down first wins. Simple? Sure, until you try it! The intense pressure of man on man competition has caused many “top guns” to go down in defeat, causing one top shooter here in Mesa to say: “Anyone can win that match.” And that, of course, is the point. Anyone can win.

We have decided to run an 8 stage version of this match.  Open and Limited. USPSA, IDPA, ICORE, SASS, all are welcome.  64 shooter limit.  As a grand finale , the top 8 from each class shoot off to determine the overall champion.  Prizes awarded by random draw.
