Have you ever wondered what it was like to shoot the 3-Gun Nation Pro Match from the perspective of the competitor? Special Field Correspondent Adam Maxwell gives us a Match Recon breakdown of the Pro Match held at the 2017 Midwest Regional at Forest Lake Sportsmen's Club in Minnesota.
Adam had quite the experience and ended up moving on to the finals at 3GN Nationals but it wasn't without some challenges and tribulations.
