LEGACY AWARDS
New Awards Coming In 2025
Legacy Awards
There are some REALLY cool finisher’s awards. They will be awarded upon completion. Awards are not doubled (except for course records, Slowest Draw, and Marksmanship). NOTE! If you are flying and put ANY of these awards that remotely resemble a gun in your carry on luggage, it may be confiscated by the TSA. The Double Barrel award is a working lighter and is generally not permitted in checked luggage either. To avoid potential TSA conflicts, we have USPS Priority boxes and packaging materials available at the Awards area for those flying who wish to mail their 100K, 100 mile, and Double Barrel awards. Simply package it up and pay $18 (cash or credit card) for USA postage and mailing supplies (international is higher). We’ll package and mail it (USPS) for you 2-4 weeks after the event.
