The 4-H Shotgun Tournament

This year at the end of April, the 4-H club will host its annual shotgun tournament. This tournament is held on the outskirts of Madison, Georgia. There are a few things you need to know if you are interested in the tournament.

To be in the tournament, you must be in grades 7-12, a current member of the 4-H club, and have a certified coach. Most every team is a county team and almost every county in Georgia has a team so there are a good bit of people. At first, everyone shoots the first round. If you hit 25 out of 25 clay targets, you are guaranteed a spot in the second round. In the second round, you shoot doubles to determine the champion. There is a total of 10 pair thrown. You are placed on how well you do doubles. There is also a team competition. The best team gets trophies along with the best individual shooters. This year, Mitchell county should be up at the top.
