US shooting athletes on their way to Paris 2024

With just one year to go until the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, USA shooting athletes are hard at work training with the dream of representing the United States on one of the biggest podiums in the world.

The Olympic Games Opening Ceremony takes place on July 26, 2024 and the Paralympic Games kick off their ceremony on August 28, 2024. Our pistol, rifle, shotgun and Paralympic athletes are focused on securing spots and winning medals in the crucial competitions leading up to the Games during their Road to Paris.

The road to Paris has been unique. Typically, athletes have a full quad, or four, between Games. This quad was shortened to three years due to the Tokyo Games being pushed back to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the challenges of training and competing during a global pandemic, USA Shooting athletes won an impressive total of six Olympic medals in Tokyo. Vincent Hancock and Amber English took gold in the men’s and women’s skeet shooting. Will Shaner won gold in the men’s 10m air rifle. Kayle Browning won silver in women’s trap. Lucas Kozeniesky and Mary Tucker won silver in the mixed team 10m air rifle and Brian Burrows and Madelyn Bernau took bronze in the mixed team skeet shooting.

The medals won in Tokyo brought USA Shooting’s Olympic and Paralympic medal tally to a total of 121 with 58 gold, 32 silver and 31 bronze. USA Shooting also currently holds the most Olympic gold medals in shooting sports of any country.

Our athletes returned from Tokyo at full speed to prepare for Paris. Even with the stress of having less time to prepare for the Paris Games, our athletes have put in incredible international performances in the past two years.

In 2022 alone, our athletes won 44 medals at the Americas Games Championship (CAT), 19 medals at the International Shooting Sports Federation (ISSF) World Championships, and more than 30 medals at the ISSF World Cup.

So far in 2023, the shotgun team has had incredible performances at the international level and has amassed over 30 medals at ISSF World Cups. The Paralympic team had a strong showing at the 2023 Changwon World Shooting Para Sport (WSPS) World Cup, taking home two bronze medals.

USA Shooting has also secured 15 slots for Paris. Each country is eligible for two places in each event. To date, the USA has earned quotas in the following events:

Gun

Women’s 10m Air Pistol – Earned by Suman Sanghera at the CAT Games
Women’s 25m Pistol – Won by Katelyn Abeln at the CAT Games

Rifle

Men’s 10 Air Rifle – Earned by Brandon Muske at the CAT Games
Women’s 10m Air Rifle – Earned by Mary Tucker at the CAT Games
Women’s 10m Air Rifle – Earned by Alison Weisz at the World Championships
Women’s 50m Rifle 3 Positions – Earned by Katie Zaun at the CAT Games
Women’s 50m Rifle 3 Positions – Won by Sagen Maddalena at the World Championships
Men’s 50m Rifle 3 Positions – Earned by Ivan Roe at the CAT Games

Shotgun

Men’s Trap – Won by William Hinton at the CAT Games
Men’s Trap: Won by Derrick Mein at the World Championships
Men’s Skeet – Won by Dustan Taylor at the CAT Games
Men’s Skeet – Won by Vincent Hancock at the World Championships
Women’s Trap – Won by Aeriel Skinner at the 2022 CAT Games
Women’s Skeet – Won by Dania Vizzi at the CAT Games
Women’s Skeet – Won by Samantha Simonton at the World Championships

USA Shooting also has a Paralympic quota won by Jazmin Almlie-Ryan in the Mixed 10m Air Rifle Prone SH2.

When an athlete earns a quota for the US in a specific event, the US becomes eligible for that athlete to compete in that event at the Olympic Games. Athletes are only eligible to earn one event fee in a four-year Olympic cycle.

The athletes have a few more chances to win quotas for Paris. The next opportunities will be at the 2023 ISSF World Championships in Baku, Azerbaijan, from August 14 to September 1 and then at the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile, from October 20 to November 5.

More important events on the Road to Paris are the Olympic and Paralympic trials. The pistol, rifle, shotgun and Paralympic disciplines all have their own testing procedures. Official selection procedures can be found on our website at: https://usashooting.org/resource-center/#category-team-selections

Shotgun conducted the first part of its testing earlier this year in Hillsdale, Michigan at the John A. Halter Shooting Sports and Education Center. His second part of the trials will tentatively take place in the spring of 2024 in Tucson, Arizona at the Tucson Trap and Skeet Club.

The rifle and pistol will have the first part of their Olympic trials in Fort Moore, Ga., at the Army Marksmanship Unit’s shooting range from September 28 to October 3. The second part of their trials will coincide with the 2023 Winter Air Guns Championships at the US Olympic and Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The third part will take place in the spring of 2024.

The first part of the Paralympic rifle and pistol trials will also coincide with the 2023 Winter Air Guns Championships this December. Its second and third part of the tests will take place in the spring of 2024.

Supporting our athletes during this critical time leading up to the Games is essential to their success. Most people are surprised to learn that USA Shooting and the rest of Team USA are non-profit organizations and receive no government funding. In fact, the US is one of the few countries that does not receive government funding for its Olympic and Paralympic governing bodies.

USA Shooting depends on our members and generous donors to fund the dreams of our American athletes. To make a donation to USA Shooting, visit: https://usashooting.org/get-involved/donate/ To become a USA Shooting member, visit: https://members.usashooting.org/memberregistration

The next event celebrates 50 years of turkey conservation!

EDGEFIELD, SC — Join the National Wild Turkey Federation and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources in celebrating the 50th anniversary of the NWTF and wild turkey restoration in the Land of 10,000 Lakes on July 22 in Caledonia (where the Wild turkeys were first reintroduced to Minnesota in the 1970s).

“We are beyond excited to bring together all of our partners, volunteers and major donors from across the state to celebrate one of America’s greatest wildlife conservation success stories, both across the country and here in Minnesota.” said Tom Glines, NWTF director of development. “We are going to pack 50 years of excitement and fun into one action-packed day in Caledonia. We hope you can join us!”

Outdoor industry brands, MNDNR, Minnesota Hunter-Conservationists and NWTF chapters from across the state will gather in Caledonia’s North Park at 2 pm to dedicate three bronze burial mounds commemorating the incredible restoration of the turkey wild in Minnesota and everyone who made it. possible.

The event will kick off with a welcome address from Caledonia Mayor Dwayne “Tank” Schroeder, a member of the NWTF’s Houston County chapter since the chapter’s inception in 1984.

NWTF Minnesota State Chapter President Linden Anderson will also address the crowd, speaking about the restoration efforts he was directly involved with during the 1980s and 1990s.

At around 3:00 pm, attendees will walk to the nearby Four Seasons Community Center for a welcome reception. Cakes and light refreshments will be provided during this social event as attendees discuss turkey and swap stories about the past 50 years of wild turkey conservation.

Following the reception, former wild turkey hunters directly involved in Minnesota’s restoration efforts will recreate how the wild turkeys were trapped and moved. They will also provide a discussion on the nuances of trapping and relocating wild turkeys.

At night, a 50he An Anniversary Blowout Gun Blast fundraising event will be held.

For more information on this celebratory event, contact Glines at [email protected] or (612) 810-7704.

Historically, Minnesota was the northern end of the Wild Turkey Range. The birds occurred in limited numbers in the southern part of the state. In the early 20th century, unregulated hunting, urban development, and many other factors completely extirpated the state’s birds.

The first attempts to re-establish wild turkey populations began in 1926 using farmed birds. These releases failed, as did subsequent attempts with pen-raised birds; half-domesticated, half-wild turkeys were not as robust as their purely wild counterparts.

However, around the start of the NWTF in the early 1970s, state wildlife agencies across the country began trapping wild turkeys in areas with strong populations and moving them to areas devoid of wild turkeys. MNDNR used this innovative approach and released 29 Missouri wild turkeys in the winter of 1972-73. Those launches took place in Houston County, where the anniversary celebration will take place this summer.

Over the next 50 years, the MNDNR, the NWTF, and NWTF Minnesota chapters collaborated on the relocation of wild turkeys, as well as the creation of wild turkey habitat throughout the state. The result is more than 70,000 turkeys throughout Minnesota and the opportunity to hunt wild turkeys during permitted seasons.

The Adept Armor Thunder, Lightest Tier 3+ Body Armor Plate

An unprecedented balance of protection and mobility, the patent-pending Adept Armor Thunder, at just 3.45 pounds, is nearly 20 percent lighter than any other board in its class.

Adept Armor, an armor systems engineering firm, introduces the RF2/Level 3+ Thunder Armor Plate, a lightweight torso plate that offers class-leading protection at an ultra-light weight of just 3.45 lbs. at 10×12”. .

For several years, Adept Armor has been researching advanced silicate attack face materials to develop the ultimate in lightweight armor plates. This culminated in the development of Amorphoid, a low-density/high-hardness glass-ceramic material that can outperform conventional impact-faced ceramic and metallic materials in plates designed to stop steel-cored ball and “light AP” rounds.

The amorphoid is indefinitely stable and insensitive to extremes of heat, cold, and pressure. It is similar to ceramic, but inherently lighter (approximately 12% less dense than boron carbide and 30% less dense than silicon carbide) and can be fabricated into very thin monolithic profiles.

By integrating the latest Amorphoid technology into the design and production of the new Thunder armor plates, Adept Armor has achieved the goal of producing the lightest body armor plate on the market today, without sacrificing its ability to achieve all-around performance. from RF2/Level 3+. The patent-pending Thunder integrates Amorphoid, a chemically treated phase change silicate core, making it 15% lighter than its closest competitor and more than 25% lighter than the average board in its category, while offering complete protection against all common problems. gun threats.

Prior to the Thunder armor plate, customers could choose between a lightweight plate, but without the ability to stop M855, or analogous steel-core threats; or the heavy ceramic or steel plates that would stop steel core threats. There was no one-size-fits-all dish, until now. The SAPI-style 10 x 12-inch Thunder multi-curve plate offers the best of both worlds; protection against steel core threats in a lightweight platform comparable to polyethylene plates. The full-size Thunder attacking face offers complete edge-to-edge amorphous coverage.

“We believe that the design and development of an armor plate is a problem defined by its specification, in this case RF2, for which there must be a theoretically optimal solution. Given the current state of materials science, the Thunder board is the optimum solution in its category, and will eventually come to define the upper limit of performance in that category. Its development required novel materials and methods, of which we are very proud,” said Jake Ganor, CEO of Adept Armor.

Adept Armor’s new Thunder armor plate leads the industry in combining superior threat protection with lightweight, maneuverable body armor systems. The Thunder is ideal for military use in low-intensity threat environments, and for police and security personnel, as well as citizens looking to protect themselves and their families from a broad spectrum of rifle threats, without overloading themselves. .

Adept Armor Thunder Specifications:

Weight: 3.45 pounds

Thickness: 1.17 inches

Materials: Amorphous compound -UHMWPE

Curvature: Multi-curved to SAPI military specifications

Size: 10 inches by 12 inches with full edge-to-edge amorphous coverage
