Las Vegas

This week 1/28-31/16 I went to Las Vegas to shot the biggest tournament in the world.  This is a tournament run not only by USA Archery but also NFAA.  NFAA is the National Field Archery Association for hunting and field archery.  People from all over the world from Olympians to begginners come to shoot and have fun.  This tournament is not really a ranking tournament but its more to have fun and see new products.  The sponsors of this event all bring there items and sell, and people try all the new oroducts.  The Casino that its held at every year is called South Point Casino, and this year was the 50th year anniversary.  There was a big celebration and all the sponsors from all the past years came.  The good thing about shooting in Las Vegas compared to Columbia (were the world cup was held) is that the parents dont get bored and fall asleep.  They can gamble and play games while there kids shoot.  If you shoot the adult divisions you can dhoot for prizes, so first gets a set amout of money, second, third, and so on.  First place winners in every division got $50,000, and for the kids, they can get $1000 in scholarship money.  Yes you want to win the money but this tournament is more for fun than anything else.
