Gracen Fletcher won the championship compound female category outright by being the only woman to shoot 900 across the three days, as scoring concluded on Saturday at The Vegas Shoot.
The 18-year-old is the ninth woman in the history of the event to achieve the mark.
The recurve men’s title was won outright by Brady Ellison with a score of 893, ahead of four archers on 889. This is his eleventh Vegas Shoot victory.
In the recurve women’s competition, Victoria Sebastian and Casey Kaufhold tied for top spot and will shootdown on Sunday for the title. Both of them had shot 883 after three days of competition.
This year, 29 men made the maximum 900 score in the championship compound open division, and will compete for the first prize of USD 50,000.
As usual, they will be joined by a ‘Lucky Dog’, the archer who won the shootdown contested by all the archers in the division who scored 899 across the three days. This year‘s lucky loser is 2022 Asian Games Champion Ojas Pravin Deotale, who placed fourth at the Vegas Shoot last year.
Archers who scored 900 and made the final shootdown include defending champion Mathias Fullerton, as well as Mike Schloesser, Jimmy Lutz, Nicolas Girard, Kris Schaff and Nico Wiener.
The championship Vegas shootdowns are broadcast live on archery+ on Sunday evening.
