In order to minimize travel and keep proper social distancing, New Mexico will be holding a series of internet shoots or iShoots. The iShoot format will allow shooters to compete in a registered shoot from one of three locations in the state: Mesilla Valley Shotgun Sports in Las Cruces, Chaparral Skeet Club in Roswell or High Desert Sportsmen in Albuquerque.

The shoot managers at each club will be using a web based platform that will combine the scores from all three clubs. Attached is the flyer for the first ishoot with three others to follow. To see the most recent New Mexico Skeet Shooting calendar go to http://highdesertsportsmen.net/content/nm-skeet-shooting-association.

The first shoot of the ishoot series will be the Mesilla Valley Open. The attached program for the Mesilla Valley Open ishoot has a link included where you must pre-register before Wednesday, May 27 . Make sure you select the right club where you are going to shoot in the registration drop-down list. No deposit is necessary to pre-register. Shoot fees will be paid to the club where you participate in the shoot. This is an honors only shoot to minimize the registration interaction and to simplify the management of the shoot.
