Sanborn County 4-H Shooting Sports recorded an amazing year in 2021, with over 20 new shooters, numerous county records set, and 54 shooters qualifying for the State Shoot in 125 events.  

The Shooting Sports program offers multiple disciplines in guns and archery.  The gun disciplines include BB Gun (BB), Air Pistol (AP), Air Rifle (AR), .22 CMP Rifle (22CMP), .22 3-Position Rifle (22-3P), .22 Pistol (22P).  Archery disciplines include Compound Bow Without Sights (CWOS), Compound Without Sights with Release (CWOS-R), Compound With Sights (CWS), Compound With Sights with Release (CWS-R), Recurve Bow With Sights (RWS), Recurve Without Sights (RWOS), and Compound Open (C-Open).

In many of the disciplines there are different requirements, positions and/or shooting distances depending on the age level. An added dimension of challenge this year was a mask requirement for practice and competition.  You’ll see that for many of our pictures we removed the mask for a minute.
