Pro Shooter Max Michel Makes History; Sweeps All Eight USPSA Area Championships For 2010 Season
Essex Junction, VT –-(Ammoland.com)- Max Michel, champion shooter for Revision Eyewear, makes history with his Open Division Title win at the 2010 Area 2 Championships, held November 10-14, 2010 at the Rio Salado Sportsman’s Club in Mesa, AZ.
Michel is the first person in USPSA history to win all eight USPSA Area Championships in a single year.
His decisive win in this Level III Match was against 151 of the country’s top Open Division shooters. He secured the title with 1135.0241 match points, or 100.00%.
“To even be in this position and have the opportunity to win all 8 Area Championships is a huge success in itself. To stay healthy and keep the guns, ammo and gear running while balancing the family life and the sacrifices that had to be made to make this happen was a team effort,” commented Michel.
“My wife and kids have been extremely supportive of my shooting goals and my team of Sponsors truly made this possible.”
Michel continued, “Lastly, my father deserves to share this special season with me as he made every effort possible to push me and guide me through the ups and downs of this challenge. I strive everyday to be the father and man he is.”
Michel’s 2010 competitive season comes to an end with this definitive win at the Area 2 Championship. Revision and Michel look forward to what the 2011 season will hold.
