Fun stage, the target order was trickery, and these targets were fairly small.

Can’t believe it was already a week ago, but the @sparc_series finale was THE best match I have attended yet. Huge shout out to @hdean20 and @alex_utahshooters for making this whole thing possible. It has been an awesome 2026 season.

Overall I am happy with my performance and have some things to take back with me and work on improving. I was blessed to be in Super Squad 5 💪🏼💪🏼 shoutout to all you guys. Go shoot and train with your homies. It’s the best thing you can do.

I also want to say thanks to all the sponsors that donated in some way to help this match and entire series. You guys are awesome. Go support the brands and shops that support shooters. I’m pretty excited to try out a new can from @deadairsilencers

Can’t forget to thank @thelost_cameraman for capturing all these amazing moments. He is a true artist. Go check out his work.

I’ve been thinking about some stuff after the ATFs letter regarding enforcement of the NFA moving forward. First is that I can’t believe this was happening. When I started to carve a my own niche in the NFA and suppressor segment of the industry over a decade ago, I never imaged we would actually get to this point.

It’s going to be a wild ride the next few months. Availability might be difficult and be patient with everyone as they try to figure out how to navigate inventory management, shipping delays, and new vendors. I’d love to hear what you guys are most excited about in the comments.

To my industry homies, have an abundance mindset. Just because someone is now jumping into the NFA game at the sales or manufacturing level, it doesn’t mean that they’re out to get you. I’ve heard people worrying about new competition popping up. Stay in your lane, be honest with your customers, and remember that money doesn’t mean anything if you’re lying and cheating to get ahead.

Wish some of the most influential people in my life could have been around to see what’s happening now.

@sparc_series season 2026 has come to an end, and I’m so glad I continue to meet such amazing people from the shooting community. Many of you have become fast friends and I truly appreciate the friendship and community competitive shooting has given me.

@darcybangerter is the best support system. Literally could not do it without her support in this.

I love seeing new shooters come out, and rapidly improve. I love learning from other shooters and helping where I can.

This fast moving format is unforgiving. One mistake costs you dearly with the level of shooters who come to the matches.

You guys are animals out there. Let’s run it back next year.

Massive thanks to @deadairsilencers, @nextshotprecision, @stealth_additive_works, @morningstar_designs_ and many many other series sponsors for supporting. I literally can’t tag enough people from the squad photos.

@hdean20 @alex_utahshooters thanks boys.

Here are some match photos that I’ve really liked this year.

Good shooting. Good weather and good dudes.

It has been a super fun year of shooting the @sparc_series. Definitely had a lot to learn but it is the most fun match format I have done. As always forgot to get any pictures or videos, so here is the only video I got. Not great but not bad.

Managed to get a stage win, 14th place overall for the finale and 11th for the season.

Until next year.
