Shiraz Balolia - Vice Captain

Shiraz Balolia lives with his family in Bellingham, WA and operates Grizzly Industrial, Inc. (grizzly.com) which he founded in Bellingham in 1983.

Born and raised in Kenya, Shiraz moved to North America in the early 70's and has been shooting for 35 years. He is the current Washington State Champion and holds several national records in F-Class shooting. Although his first 1000 yard match was at the 2006 F-Class Nationals in Sacramento, Shiraz has made a very quick progression through the ranks in long range shooting. His other hobbies include saltwater fishing for salmon and halibut, crabbing, building guitars, metalworking and playing racquet sports, all of which take a back seat to shooting!
