Brownells Sponsored Shooters Claim Match One of Colt 3 Man 3-Gun Series
OutdoorHub 05.24.12
The Noveske Shooting Team, sponsored by Brownells, claimed the top spot in the first match of the prestigious, Colt 3 Man 3-Gun Championship Series. Team members Rob Romero, Jansen Jones, and substitute Clint Upchurch, out-shot more than 65 teams from across North America.
Held in Topton, PA, on May 20, 2012, match one was the opener of the prestigious, two-match series, which crowns the Nation’s top 3-gun shooting team.
“We have been trying to win this match for the last 3 years,” said Romero. “Last year we came up just short of winning it and ended up in second place. Two years ago costly penalties kept us from accomplishing our goal. We believe that this year could be the year.”
“It’s not over yet.” said Jones. “We still have one more event to compete in and there are some very strong teams in the series. We can’t take anything for granted.”
The team now sets their sights on July 14-15, 2012 and the Peacemaker National Training Center in West Virginia – the site of the final round. The winners, who will receive a $6,000 cash prize courtesy of Colt Manufacturing, will be determined by the highest combined point total.
“We’re incredibly proud of the Noveske Shooting Team,” said Pete Brownell, President/CEO of Brownells. “They’re great competitors and sportsmen. Congratulations to them on their outstanding performance in match one, and we wish them the best of luck in West Virginia.”
Upchurch, a professional shooter for Colt, is filling in for Team Noveske’s Katie Harris, who was unable to attend the event due to prior commitments.
