2013 TBSC Spearfishing Challenge Sponsors

This thread is to say thank you to all of this years sponsors for their generosity and support of the 2013 TBSC Spearfishing Challenge! We hope you will join us in supporting these fine companies who give back to our sport!

The 2013 TBSC Spearfishing Challenge is a non-profit charity tournament and the success depends on all of you participating as well as our sponsors. Once again this year our proceeds will be donated to divers rights causes and local charities. This event is individual aggregate and largest fish by category. The beautiful trophies will be awarded for the top 5 aggregate scores, largest fish by category, top freediver, top female, and top junior, and top mixed pair!

The 2013 Tampa Bay Spearfishing Challenge is going to have another smoking prize table!! The TBSC remains one of the most fair and exciting tournaments for beginning and experienced shooters alike, as the random drawing prize format gives every competitor an equal chance at a first class prize table, regardless of placement. A random prize format puts the focus on camaraderie and fun! This is a huge reason our sponsors love us and come back year after year!

Reactor Watches

The creative minds at REACTOR WATCHES, Jimmy and Scotty, are stepping up again to support the spearfishing community by sponsoring this years Tampa Bay Spearfishing Challenge (that's right, Reactors will be on the table). These watches have the best warranty in the biz. Made tough and look classy. I have been wearing the same Reactor on each dive trip for the past six years and it takes all the abuse a diver can dish out. www.reactorwatch.com

Wrasselin Custom Speargun!

We have an exciting addition to the prize table from one of the best and most innovative custom gun builders on our coast! Randy (Wrasselin) on the board was extremely generous in personally donating this custom bamboo and Sapele extended rear handle to the prize table. It has an embedded magnetic open track that holds the shaft in place (even upside down), light bamboo layers with a beautiful sapele underside, rounded open muzzle, new top of the line JBL handle and trigger, and a breakaway rig. I could not believe how light and balanced this gun is for a 48" wooden gun! Huge thanks to Randy for a generous personal donation for several good causes-pictures absolutely do not do his work justice. This is an individual donation but if you ever see Randy put one of his personal guns up for sale you need to jump on it!
