The 2026 Sheepdog Showdown takes place July 18–19, 2026, at Sheepdog Warrior in Catskill, New York. This is a National two-day Precision Rifle Series Pro Series points match, presented by Kahles, set in the rolling, forested terrain of the Catskill Mountains.
Designed for experienced PRS competitors and disciplined regional shooters alike, the match focuses on clean execution, positional fundamentals, and stage management rather than gimmicks. The weekend includes a paid Friday train-up day with no confirmation required, followed by two full match days.

- PRS Pro Series, 2-day points match
- 18–20 stages total (9–10 per day)

Shooter Insight:
Dense terrain and stage pacing reward shooters who manage recoil, transitions, and clock pressure more than raw speed.
