High Desert Junior Trap Shooters
For all Junior trap shooters in the California High Desert. This is NOT an ATA program and is open to all youth (ages 9 through 18) that want to attend, even if they’re not affiliated with a club.
Each competition consists of 4 rounds of trapshooting. Two rounds are shot at the 16 yard line, and the final two are shot at the shooters handicap yardage. Each shooter is placed in a category and handicapped based on their ability.
This year, with the generous assistance from the Friends of the NRA and our awesome sponsors, combined with funds raised at our annual banquet, we have been able to provide each shooter with the shells and targets for each round of competition. That, combined with NO ENTRY FEE, means that this is one of the best and most cost-effective ways for youth to become involved in shooting sports.
All youth wishing to attend must be familiar with, and properly trained in firearm safety and comfortable shooting trap in a structured environment.
