What a weekend at the 2026 Bushnell GAP Grind Pro/Am!
Another Grind is officially in the books, and once again, this event reminded us why it has become such a special weekend for the precision r***e community.
More than 340 competitors and volunteer ROs, along with sponsors, vendors, family, friends, and spectators, came together at K&M Shooting Complex for three packed days of shooting, competition, and everything that makes the Grind what it is.
An event of this size simply does not happen without a tremendous group of people behind it. To every shooter who made the trip, every RO who spent the weekend on a stage, every sponsor who stepped up to support the match, and every volunteer who helped wherever they were needed - thank you.
A special thank you goes to George Gardner, Kevin Rich, Dillan Eriksen, Bryce Webb, Levi Pickens, and Ben Martin, along with our entire crew of ROs and volunteers. You are the backbone of this match, and the work that happens before, during, and after the Grind is what makes a weekend like this possible.
And, of course, a huge thank you to Bushnell. Their support as the title sponsor of the GAP Grind has continued for more than a decade, and they once again stepped up in a big way for our shooters in 2026. We are proud to have them alongside us and grateful for their continued commitment to this event and the precision r***e community.
The messages, photos, videos, and posts we have already seen coming out of the weekend have been incredible. Every GAP Grind seems to develop a personality of its own, and 2026 was no exception. The competition is a huge part of it, but the people are what continue to make this match something different.
This year, 340+ shooters took on 20 stages and 183 rounds over the course of the match. From Friday’s Vendor Day and side stages through the final rounds on Sunday, there was no shortage of action across K&M.
There are far too many ROs, sponsors, vendors, stage sponsors, volunteers, and supporters to recognize properly in a single post - and we have plenty more coming - but first, it’s time to recognize the shooters who earned their way to the top.
