We are very proud of him for choosing us as his primary sponsor and we look forward to a great things coming from this young man.

Below, Riley describes her first experience in the sport starting with an AR 15!

“My name Riley Jensen and I am 11 years old. I started shooting when I was only 9 years old. It all started when my grandparents were hosting a shooting party out at our house and as I was watching. I then told my grandparents I wanted to try shooting. My grandpa got out the AR 15 with a 22 upper. He let me try it out and he thought I was pretty good. Jokingly he asked if I wanted to shoot the Ankeny match that following weekend. Not knowing he was kidding I said yes. It has turned out to be way more than I thought it would. My first match which was Ankeny, a week after I had a gun in my hand [for the first time]. I placed in the top half. Since that match, I have had the opportunity to shoot competitively in Missouri 2 times. I also shot in Texas, where I ranked in the top 20. I've been to Wisconsin where I got 7th overall, 1st youth and High Lady. I,ve been to two world matches in Arkansas where the first time I ranked 85th out of 167 and the second time 59th and 2nd youth Open Division . I have been to several in-state matches in Iowa. I have gone to competitions in Ankeny including my first match. The first time I went to Missouri, I got asked to join the team of Ozark Mountain Lead Slingers. I answered yes. When I went to the NSSF World match in Arkansas, the second time around I got asked by Bryan Haaker of TADEMKROSS to join Team TADEMKROSS. I told them that I would love to join. In the matches I have attended, I've shot two rifles which were AR 15 with a 22 upper which was the first gun I had ever shot. Also, a highly modified 10/22 made mostly of parts I've won at matches, which is the one I shoot now. I also have one pistol, which is Browning Buckmark that I started with back in 2014. I am very excited to be a part of the TANDEMKROSS team.”
