Photo by Derrick Birdsall<\/p><\/div>\n<p>BURLINGTON, Wash. \u2013 After winning seven of 12 stages, it&#8217;s no wonder that Team Rudy Project&#8217;s Blake Miguez of New Iberia, La. has captured another Limited division title at the U.S. Practical Shooting Association&#8217;s Area 4 Handgun Championship.<\/p>\n<p>With his commanding performance at this year&#8217;s match, Miguez locked up his fourth Area 4 regional title in a row, and his seventh since 2003. He finished the match with a final score of 1467.0237 points. The win represents the second USPSA regional title Miguez has picked up this shooting season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStarting off with four straight stage wins, it&#8217;s no surprise that Blake led the match from start to finish. He&#8217;s had a strong season with big wins both in the U.S. and internationally, so I look for Blake to do well at this year&#8217;s USPSA Nationals later this month\u201d said Phil Strader, the USPSA Area 4 director.<\/p>\n<p>Trailing Miguez by 23 points in second was Manny Bragg of Frostproof, Fla. who picked up three stage wins before ending the match a score of 1443.7598. Third place went to Mike Seeklander of Owasso, Okla. with 1320.2293.<\/p>\n<p>Rounding out the top five were David Weers of La Vernia, Texas and Candaian Mike Burrell of Vaughan, Ontario who placed fourth and fifth with 1267.1435 and 1240.5455 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The 2011 Area 4 Handgun Championship was help September 1-4 at the Double Tap Ranch in Wichita Falls, Texas.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about practical shooting, or join the 20,000 members of USPSA in the most dynamic and fast-paced shooting sport around, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uspsa.org\/\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">USPSA.org<\/a>, follow <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/uspsa_shooting\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">@USPSA_Shooting<\/a> on Twitter, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/USPracticalShootingAssn\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">USPSA on Facebook<\/a> or read the <a href=\"http:\/\/practicalshooting.posterous.com\/\" rel=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Practical Shooting blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After winning seven of 12 stages, it&#8217;s no wonder that Team Rudy Project&#8217;s Blake Miguez of New Iberia, La. has captured another Limited division title at the U.S. Practical Shooting Association&#8217;s Area 4 Handgun Championship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11486,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[116,9,6],"tags":[652,663,2060,529,2059,3613,245,1813,54,3597],"class_list":["post-11485","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bloggers","category-paul-erhardt","category-uspsa","tag-area-4","tag-blake-miguez","tag-david-weers","tag-manny-bragg","tag-mike-burrell","tag-mike-seeklander","tag-practical-shooting","tag-team-rudy-project","tag-team-smith-wesson","tag-uspsa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11485"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11485\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11486"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11485"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
