2026 Florida State Shoot Results!
The 110th Florida State Shoot was a SUCCESS!
This year’s shoot saw tremendous growth and participation. We were up approximately 700 entries compared to last year and threw 90,000 additional targets, bringing us to a total of 4,020 entries and 460,000 targets thrown. These numbers speak volumes about the strength of our shooting community and the reputation of the Florida State Shoot.
For the first time in 18 years, our shoot achieved a Competition Factor (multiplier) of 5 regarding All-American Points. This milestone is huge—not only as recognition of the success of this year’s event, but also because the 2027 Florida State Shoot will automatically be a Factor 5 shoot. That designation firmly places Florida into the “must-attend” category for shooters pursuing All-American points, and it sets the stage for continued growth in the years ahead.
