The Best in Trapshooting Returns to the Whittington Center

The New Mexico State ATA Trap Shoot 2026 is coming to the NRA Whittington Center May 20–24, and it’s shaping up to be one of the premier shotgun events of the year.

For five days, shooters from across New Mexico and beyond will gather on our trap fields to compete in registered ATA events—singles, handicap, and doubles—all competing for state titles, trophies, and All-American points.

But this event is about more than competition.

It’s about early mornings on the line, the rhythm of targets breaking in the mountain air, and the camaraderie that makes trapshooting such a special community. Whether you're chasing a championship or just enjoying time on the range with fellow shooters, this is an experience you don’t want to miss.

Set against the backdrop of over 33,000 acres of world-class shooting facilities, the Whittington Center offers the perfect place to compete, connect, and stay awhile.

Make your plans now—we’ll see you on the line.
