2025 MDT Midsummer Madness

EVENT DETAILS

Welcome to the first ever 2-day PRS Match being held in British Columbia, Canada! We have an incredible, wild venue that is nestled in the mountains surround the Nicola Valley/Merritt, BC that offers a varied mix of natural terrain and man made props for shooters to test their skills.

There is dry camping available on site (no water or electrical hook ups) and we're approximately 25 minutes out of the main town of Merritt which has lots of accommodations. There are flat/level sections for RV's and campers, as well as partially wooded sections for tents and hammocks on site. Feel free to come out and camp with us as the vibe around the fire in the evening is always a great time and you can meet new friends. The main road up to the range is dirt, but fairly easy access with most road going cars able to get up without issue. Trucks, SUV's, etc. will be no problem and ground clearance shouldn't be too much of an issue.

We anticipate this to be a hot and dry weekend as the interior of BC gets warm starting in June/July and everything dries out, so we'll do our best to keep you all informed of current conditions and notices in the area. This will ramp up as we near the match. We will have PLENTY of water available and in coolers, stocked up with ice throughout the day as well as hydration packets and snacks. Prepare to be outside and hiking through sparsely wooded terrain for 8-12 hours each day; bring a water bottle, backpack, snacks and any other creature comforts. Lunch will be provided from a local food truck on Saturday and we'll have a banquet/BBQ after the match on Sunday.

We've shot and run enough matches to know that we all want to be done and out of the venue early, so we aim to have the same for this match. All scoring will be done through Impact Scoring, so it'll be live and quick for wrap up at the end. If you have any questions or concerns with border travel or access to this match, please reach out to us directly and we will be sending out information to all competitors leading up to this match.
