The tripod is one of the most valuable pieces of gear in my pack.

On this stage, a lot of shooters tried using the branch for support—but it was bouncy and unstable.

Using a tripod—either as rear support or by clamping the rifle—creates a far more stable shooting platform. That added stability translates directly into better accuracy and greater effective range.

@michael_berger21 & I spent a lot of time training with the tripod and it paid off big for both of us. During this weekend’s match, I used my tripod as a rifle support on more than half of the stages. Without it, the match would have been a completely different experience.

I know there are still plenty of traditionalists—especially in the hunting world—who shy away from using a tripod. But once you learn how to use one effectively, it can completely change your shooting.

I’m still learning how to deploy it more efficiently myself, and there were definitely a few things in this stage where I could improve my tripod use. That’s part of the process.

Possibly the most physically demanding match I’ve shot to date.

We covered roughly 13 miles over two days with some serious climbs along the way. A late Saturday rain turned day two into a muddy grind, and the weekend definitely tested both us and our gear.

I was fortunate to shoot alongside some great competitors—and even better humans. Huge thanks to my shooting partner @michael_berger21 for helping keep my head straight when I needed it.

The stages forced us into some tough positions and required plenty of out-of-the-box thinking.

I left that mountain a better shooter.

Another solid day stacking reps.

@nrlhunter season kicks off for our Georgia crew in a couple weeks — We’re ready to send it and so are the @seekinsprecision_official PH3 NRL rifles.

We nicknamed this prop the “rocking chair.” That’s all it did… rock. Try settling in on an 8” plate at 330 yards while everything under you won’t sit still. Build position. Control the wobble. Break a clean shot anyway.

Ready to log the miles with @michael_berger21 — including a trip out west to Idaho for a whole different kind of shooting experience.

Let’s go.

@michael_berger21 and I got out yesterday for some preseason practice and the weather made sure it wasn’t easy.

Rain, fog, low visibility… target acquisition was no joke. But on match day you don’t get to pick the conditions, so why should practice be any different?

Lean into it. That’s where the edge comes from.
