figgy Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Perazzi are not daft when it comes to sponsorship,getting the majority of top shots signed up. Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun4860 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 I hope she has continued success, Rory Mcilroy did the same in golf, Nike threw millions.....tens of millions at him to change sponsors to them, ($250 million over 10 years) His form dropped like a burst balloon, and only very recently won a tournement, first in a long long time Hopefully Amber settles into Perazzi a lot quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westley Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Well done Amber, not just for your shooting achievements but for actually managing to get the BBC to recognise that shooting, as a sport, does exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
