Note of Congratulations and Accomplishment Elana McCarthy "Non-Resident" Woman's Doubles Champion!

How often has someone claimed a Non-resident and Resident Title in the same state?

 

Congratulations Elana! With the question being asked the Name of George Snellenberger comes to mind. I believe it was seven different states that George won the resident state singles championship. Maybe Jackie could answer that for us?

Did he win resident and non resident?

 

Over the years George lived in many different states and I believe at one time he had won 7 different resident state 16yd titles all with 200 straights. I would almost bet that he also won the non resident title in some of those states. George lived in Ohio for two years and he won the resident state singles title both years and if my memory is correct he beat me in the shootoff both years. I don't know for sure whether he won any of these states non resident titles so that was the question I was asking in the above post and that's the reason I said maybe Jackie could tell us?

Awesome accomplishment!

 

How often does someone move? I don’t really see this as an accomplishment. The bigger accomplishment would be to repeat it in the same state where the competition is the same.

 

Bluegill, George Snellenberger was only considered an Ohio resident for 2 years and he was the 16yd state champion both years. George lived where his employment took him. He was located in both Michigan and Indiana quite a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't have multiple 16yd championships in both of these states, but I don't know for sure.

The info I see George had several Indiana Titles. 4-Singles, 2-Doubles and 6-HOA.

 

Dave, I wasn't dogging George at all, as I'm not dogging Elaina. He will always be a legend in the sport. I think the true accomplishment is the number of Championships anyone has won, not what their residency status is/was. I'm sure he would hold Champion status in any state he would have resided. I know there are many shooters who have won NR Championships. Does the fact that they didn't ever live in that state take away from their accomplishment and make someone else's more important because they moved?

 

Chances are low since they would have to move out of, or into the state. Liz Ternes did it several years ago.

 

Possibly.....
Resident the entrants are limited. Non Resident you are competing against the world. That is why two trophies right?

 

I see the subject of this post has been changed. I guess it needs to be clarified when Elaina was the non-resident lady doubles champion? Liz has been the Lady 1 singles champion in Ohio as a resident. She has also been the nonresident Lady 1 singles champion when she lived in Utah for a couple years (she actually did change her residency when she moved, not years later). And from what everyone has been able to find, she is the first lady to win the Doubles Championship in the state of Ohio.

 

OK, so are we talking about winning resident and nonresident in the same state? Or winning resident in one state and then nonresident in another state? I know plenty of shooters, including myself, that have been resident champion in Ohio and non-resident in another state.

The post is about Elena winning non resident and resident in the same state.
Tell me why you need to ask?

The quote says this....
How often has someone claimed a Non-resident and Resident Title in the same state?

 

I only ask because this post was recently made so I assume you are referring to this year, not to mention this is the first year she has competed at the Ohio state shoot as a non-resident. She was not the Lady 1 non-resident doubles champion this year in the state of Ohio. That honor goes to Raylee Bishop. She did however win the non-resident Lady 1 handicap with an impressive 98 from the 27 yard line and has previously been the resident Lady 1 Handicap Champion. I’m just trying to make sure that facts are correct.

 

Raylee also completed her Grand Slam last year about this time with 100 straight from the 27-yard line.
