GOWUTAR Optics at Ohio Range Day 2026
Event Recap: From Setup Day to Live-Fire Experience
September 25–27, 2026 · Garrettsville, Ohio
GOWUTAR Optics joined the shooting community at Ohio Range Day 2026 for three days of hands-on product experiences, live-fire testing, training, and conversations with shooters from across the community.
From setting up our booth on September 24 to putting our optics through real range use throughout the weekend, the event gave us a valuable opportunity to connect directly with shooters and see our products perform in the field.
Here’s a look back at our Ohio Range Day 2026 experience.
Our Ohio Range Day Journey
September 24 — Setup Day
Getting Ready for Ohio Range Day
Our Ohio Range Day experience started on Thursday afternoon as the GOWUTAR team arrived on site and began setting up the booth. From product displays and booth details to final preparations for the days ahead, everything was put in place before the official event began.
September 25 — Industry Day & First Live-Fire Experience
Industry Day: Hands-On with GOWUTAR Optics
Friday marked the start of hands-on product demonstrations and live-fire experiences at the GOWUTAR booth. Visitors had the opportunity to see our optics up close, handle different models, and experience their performance in a real range environment.
September 26 — Live-Fire Testing & Training
Putting Our Optics to Work
Saturday brought another full day on the range, with live-fire product experiences continuing throughout the morning. It was an opportunity for shooters to experience GOWUTAR optics beyond the display table and see how they performed during actual shooting.
The day also included training activities and more time on the range, giving our team additional opportunities to gather real-world feedback and document the event.
September 27 — One More Day with the Community
Closing Out an Incredible Weekend
On Sunday, we returned to the range for the final day of training and conversations with the community before wrapping up our Ohio Range Day 2026 experience.
After three official event days of product demonstrations, range time, training, and face-to-face conversations, we left Ohio with valuable feedback, new connections, and plenty of memorable moments.
Connecting with the Community
Real Conversations. Real Feedback.
One of the most valuable parts of Ohio Range Day was meeting shooters face to face. We had the chance to answer questions, hear firsthand feedback, discuss different shooting setups, and learn what shooters value most when choosing an optic.
These conversations help us better understand how GOWUTAR products are being used in the real world—and where we can continue improving.
Live-Fire Highlights
Ohio Range Day gave us the opportunity to see GOWUTAR optics where they matter most—on the range. Throughout the event, we captured hands-on shooting experiences, training sessions, and real-world product use.
These moments are more than event highlights. They help us observe how our optics perform during actual shooting and provide valuable insight for future product development.
