The Oklahoma Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Ranchers held their annual shotgun shoot fundraiser Friday, Aug. 9, at Silverleaf Shooting Sports in Guthrie. More than $10,000 was raised for the OKFB Foundation for Agriculture to continue to support Oklahoma agriculture and promote agriculture throughout the state.
More than 47 of teams with a total of 188 shooters participated in the sporting-clay-style tournament across 12 stations that tested their skills with real-world hunting scenarios.
Awards were given to top shooters in youth and open divisions. The winning team in the open division received $100 for each shooter and shotgun shell pouch. The winning junior division team also won $100 for each shooter and a shotgun shell pouch. The top shooters in both divisions received a shotgun shell pouch and $50. The second and third place team received gift cards.
The top team in the junior division was Woodward FFA with Kash Rose earning the top shooter award in the junior division. The open division was won by the Eskridge Chevy team with Dayne Perryman receiving the top shooter award in the top open division.
Proceeds from the event were donated to the OKFB Foundation for Agriculture, which supports Oklahoma’s farming and ranching community through philanthropic efforts while providing educational resources and opportunities to increase awareness and knowledge of Oklahoma agriculture.
