I would like to announce the first ever West Alabama Long-Range Championship to be held at Reese Bottom in September. It will be a two-day event held on Saturday September 19 and Sunday September 20. Plans are to shoot three twenty shot relays on Saturday and two twenty shot relays on Sunday morning. For the Open and FTR divisions the Sunday relays will be pair fire to allow the participants to be eligible to qualify for V2 points. We will include a bench division and their Sunday relays will be shot as usual from the bench. Food and drinks will be supplied, and we plan to have a good prize table. Registration will open on Sunday night August 16 at 7:00 pm. Entry fee will be $100 per shooter, and all proceeds will be paid out in food, winnings, and prizes. We will take a maximum of thirty[30] good shooters for this event. I will hold five[5] of these spots for bench shooters, eight[8] spots for FTR, and seventeen[17] spots for open shooters until Wednesday night August 19 at 7:00 pm. If there are still spots available in the bench or ftr divisions at this time they can be claimed by open shooters. I will pin this topic to the top and we can talk more about this between now and then. I am excited about this opportunity, and it is something that I have wanted to do for some time. If you have questions, ask them here and I will try to come up with an answer. Please pass the word around about this match and help make it a success. Can’t wait, WWE

Just a reminder that registration for the Alabama Long Range Championship opens at 7:00 pm on Sunday night August 16, 2026. A lot of the details are in the topic above. I will have a lot more to say in the days to come. Please do not confuse this with the registration for the August Mid-Range Prone match to be shot the day before. WWE

My hope is that many of you good shooters are as excited about this opportunity as I am. Remember, this is a first for me so please offer patience. I will be posting over the coming days as things come to mind. For those traveling from a distance, I would recommend that you get reservations at a motel in Demopolis, Al. They are all within thirty minutes of the range. If anyone were to be traveling in a motor home, you are welcome to stay on site but there are no hookups.
The $100 entry fee will take care of everything. Please bring cash, Reese Bottom is primitive. I will have some biscuits both mornings and plans are to grill something for lunch on Saturday. We are not going to require our good shooters to prepay. Payment can be made Friday after lunch or beforehand Saturday morning. Plans are to have a couple of targets available Friday afternoon from say 1:00 until!!
Hopefully we will have a few t-shirts and sweatshirts for sale. Plans are to have a nice prize table, and I would like to have a buy/sale table. Please, I will be the only person allowed to clean out their reloading room. Until next time. WWE

Just a reminder that registration for the West Alabama Long-Range Championship will open this coming Sunday night the 16th at 7:00 pm. First come, first in. We will take a total of thirty good shooters. 17 Open, 8 FTR, and 5 bench. Any division not full by Wednesday night at 7:00 pm will allow those slots to go into other divisions. I hope to have a good pay out to the winners but will wait to see if the match fills up. Be aware that we only have five targets so plan to be at the range for the better part of Saturday. We plan to plug in the big red clock so things should move along fairly well. I do ask that while not shooting that everyone move away from the firing line. For those that have tents, please bring.

Wednesday night ramblings. Registration for the Long-Range Championship will begin this Sunday night at 7:00 pm. This is a first and I do not know what to expect. For those that do not do internet, you will need to have someone willing to sign you up. My wish is that everyone that wants in gets in. Let’s say the Open Division fills up the seventeen slots; I would sign up anyway in case a spot in the other divisions is not claimed.
I think everyone will be impressed with the prize table. We have several very nice things, and more are coming.
If you have never been here before, like I said above, I would recommend staying in Demopolis, Al. They have a Best Western, Quality Inn, Comfort Inn, and a Days Inn. All of these are along Hwy 80, about 30 minutes from Reese Bottom.
You are welcome to participate on our Buy/Sale table.
Until next time. WWE
