2022 COLORADO HUNTER CHALLENGE

Location: Lindon, Colorado

Dates: July 22-24, 2022

Cost: $150 Skills, $250 Individual, $500 for teams 

7/12/22 Update on Colorado match…

“The NRL Hunter match scheduled during CompExpo has been moved to Lindon, Colorado. Thanks to seasoned MD, Dorgan Trostel, we are able to hold the event on a private range east of Denver. This match will now be directed by both Dorgan & me. The match will be more of a plains hunting experience showcasing Colorado’s mule deer and antelope habitat.

Please understand that this will require a change in travel plans (dates & location) for those who registered before 7/11/22, and we apologize for that, but the event will be worth it!”

Thanks,

Match Director, Robert Quigley

7/8/22 Update on Colorado match…

“We were notified by the match location’s venue, Cameo Shooting & Education Complex, that due to circumstances regarding Colorado’s magazine law, they have a new, unfortunate, requirement for the facility’s attendees. I’ll provide a link, below, with more information specifically about that. This put me, as the match director of the hunter match, and NRL Hunter in an interesting situation of seeking a new suitable site to hold a quality match, insuring it, and also getting the course-of-fire setup in a more limited time. 

I am very appreciative of the amazing individuals who have immediately extended the support in scouting other options for us, and we have also kept in mind that the location must be as easy as possible for those already registered to make travel reservation adjustments, so we do not want this to be relocated far from the original venue or in a remote area. This will also allow us to host the match over the weekend (Fri-Sun), instead of originally being over the weekdays (Wed-Fri). As of this writing, I have not yet secured a suitable location to host this hunter match up to my standards. This is my highest priority for you, so you may have an excellent experience there. I have one more venue option that I’m diligently working on, but wanted to get the status of this to everyone so you are aware that your travel plans are affected. I will have a solid answer by the end of the weekend regarding that new venue.  While we still love Cameo Shooting & Education Complex’s venue and staff, we are deeply saddened by the venue’s recent news. We apologize for any inconvenience this has created for you and us as a community. Please bare with us, as more details to follow.”

Thanks,

Match Director, Robert Quigley
