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..

These hunting simulated stages will be created on a new range of rolling hills, with mixed vegetation, from 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 400 yards, but expect anywhere from approximately 150-800 yards.
