We are deeply grateful to all of our sponsors and participants who are making the inaugural Chairman’s Tower Shoot possible,” said SWOSU Foundation, Inc. Board of Trustees Chairman Michael D. Hart of Edmond, ’06.

Hart continued, “This will be a terrific day of shooting and visiting with friends that will provide SWOSU students from southwest Oklahoma with valuable scholarships support.”

This premium event will include elite pheasant shooting featuring a 10-station ring and 250 pheasants presenting challenging, high, over-the-head shots from a tower modeled after the classic London club style.

The event is selling out fast with only 10 remaining Shooter slots available.

The Shoot will be an exciting, fast-paced experience in a premier high-volume venue. Following the Shoot, guests will enjoy a catered lunch and fellowship, with time to relax and visit before an afternoon round of shooting.
