CFDA Top Gun Points

CFDA TOP GUN OF THE YEAR POINT SYSTEM
Each year CFDA conducts a year-end points race to determine the CFDA Top Gun of the Year. Shooters can accumulate points by attending and doing well in all CFDA Titled Championships. Each shooter’s best highest 6 point totals will be tallied at the end of the year. Competitor tally must include their 2 best finishes in State Championships and any 4 others to establish their point total for the year. CFDA Awards the Top 10 Men and Women with belt buckles at the conclusion of the World Championship. Tie-breakers are determined by overall placing at the World Championship. Starting in 2025 and going forward, Top Gun Points will be tallied for the whole calendar year (January – December).
**NOTICE**
Top Gun Point Clarification For Years 2025 & 2026
(By Action of the CFDA, NPO Board of Directors – Initial Meeting 11-24)
For the 2025 awards only. The points for CFDA Titled Championships held after the 2024 FGA will be counted towards the 2025 Top Gun Points Season. Some of these championships may be counted twice. Because of the added contests, the best 8 point totals will be counted, instead of the normal best 6. The number of required State Championship tallied in the total will be raised from 2 to 3 for the 2025 Season only, since the count has been raised from 6 to 8.
For 2026 and Beyond. Top Gun Points will return to the previous Calendar Year Award System for the matches held only within that calendar year, with the (best 6 Point Total Counting and requiring that 2 State Championship Point counts be included in the final total) same as before. Since the season will be ending with the final CFDA Titled Championship of the calendar year each year, within 14 days of the last CFDA Titled Championship, final points will be tallied and published on the CFDA Website and buckles will be ordered. As an added benefit, Top Gun Buckles will now contain the names of the winners. The Top Gun Buckles will be sent by mail to the winners. The winners and photos will be featured CFDA’s Social Media Assets and in the following publication of the Gunslinger Gazette.
