Welcome to the 2024 Sooner State Safari. As always I will produce a fun and enjoyable event for everyone. Safety rules will follow the NRL rules as published for 2024 with the addition of chamber flags being used, and chamber flags may be removed moments before your time is started at the direction of the Range Officer on that stage.

This match will be new shooter friendly, distances, target sizes and stage design will produce a match with lots of hits for everyone, with a very small number of challenging targets to separate the top competitors. We will focus on a fun, low stress event for everyone. Any stage that requires the use of a tripod will have a BOG Deathgrip available for use, so if you are new, and don’t own one, you have gear available. https://www.boghunt.com/deathgrip/

The Oklahoma game animals are very diverse across the entire state; Black bear, whitetail deer, wild pigs, coyote, mountain lion, bobcat, turkey, elk, antelope, and mule deer. 

These hunting simulated stages will be created on a new range of rolling hills, with mixed vegetation, from creek bottoms, to wooded draws to open valleys. Many targets will be life sized steel animals, some with vital plates located appropriately. The average target distance will be 350 yards, but expect anywhere from approximately 150-800 yards.

Expect to be fed all 3 days of this event. (see itinerary)

The weather in March is generally nice with temperatures in the 40’s-60’s. As always come prepared for whatever nature provides.
