Tickets for the WTF Biathlon on May 30 in Arkansas are currently on sale. https://www.wtfbiathlon.com/arkansas

WTF has found a mountain near Paris, Arkansas, so they're taking the WTF format on the road! Be sure to read all the rules and procedures in the BIATHLON section of the website www.WTFbiathlon.com, as all that stuff will remain in effect and rules will be strictly enforced.

Waco Tactical Fitness is a nonprofit 501(c)3 charity that is dedicated to supporting youth marksmanship activities and is run and staffed by volunteers. The WTF Biathlon is a fund-raiser and follows the tradition of the Pecos Run 'n Gun and Zombie Destruction Biathlon, where body, mind, marksmanship and gear are tested (vigorously) in field conditions. Participants must navigate the 5-mile course while carrying rifle, pistol and ammo, overcome various obstacles and complete 6 to 7 shooting stations along the way. The terrain is challenging and includes hills, trails, woods and a river canyon. The obstacles are physically demanding. Shooting distances vary from up close and personal out to about 500 yards. Much of the shooting is in unusual positions and at unknown distances. Range estimation and other problem-solving skills definitely come into play. This event is a great way for participants to test their preparedness and uncover areas for improvement.

Date: May 30, 2020.

Location: Humphrey's Farm, 2928 Shaver Rd, Paris, Arkansas. Camping is permitted on site and nearby.

Basic Stats: The course will be approximately 6 to 7 miles long, and there will be 7 to 8 shooting stages. Many of the physical aspects of WTF that everyone has come to know and love will be included, so there's a high likelihood of a Wall, some tubes to crawl through, and other physically demanding elements.

Round Count and COF: We are really far from a COF at this point. General goal is to have a minimum of 75 Rifle and 40 Pistol rounds.

Please spread the word about this event to your shooting buddies in North Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and the surrounding areas. This is a great opportunity to welcome some new people into the WTF family!

That’s great that this sport is expanding to our neighbors in Arkansas.
