Missing The Smell of Gunpowder

My Shooting Days -- How I Miss Them So ...

Was on the phone Just now with Mike , My Shooting Instructor cum Buddy .. When he asked me whether my "Trigger Finger " ( THE INDEX FINGER that pulls the trigger) was itchy ? Ahh ... He who knows me best.. knows my cravings ...

It is a sport ( Shooting is a Sport ) that I love very much ... I must Go back and Resume shooting as soon as I finish the damn blardy exams .. and as soon as the situation allows me to ...

Shooter on the firing line !
Shooter , Load and Make Ready !
Shooter , Are You Ready ?
STANDBY !!

** BEEP ** And the Rest is History ~~~

See the video below for a brief summary of how IPSC SHOOTING IS PLAYED !!

This guy is Not really that fantastic a shooter .. fumbled a few times .. wasted precious seconds ... but too bad i couldnt find a better & Shorter Video than this ..

The Key elements of this game IPSC Shooting ( International Practical Shooting Confederation ) is about SPEED , ACCURACY & POWER.

In summary ... You shoot alone , but your scores and timing is compared against other shooters .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Example of 3 Shooters Shooting the Same Scenario :

Shooter A :Score = 25 points , 10 Sec . HIT FACTOR = 25 /10 = 2.5

Shooter B :Score = 27 points , 10.2 Sec HIT FACTOR = 27/10.2 = 2.647

Shooter C Score = 21 points , 9.8 Secs HIT FACTOR = 23/9.8 = 2.348

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE FASTEST & MOST ACCURATE ( Highest HIT FACTOR ) shooter Wins . Like my Shifu says : There is NO room for 2nd place .

Shooter , Have you Finished ??

Shooter Unload , show CLEAR , Holster !!

NEXT SHOOTER ON THE LINE !!
