Competitive shooter Doug Koenig was asked: What’s your most memorable competition moment?

“Well, after 30 years of competing, I have several. But the most recent one that stands out is at last year’s 2017 Bianchi Cup during the championship round when I shot 12 X’s on the mover at 25 yards to close out the Championship with my 18th Bianchi Cup Win. That felt awesome to close it with a statement!”
