aris Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 retired , bet he's never had to work ! Why do you say that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr. lecter Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 well to me he seems short of work experience , and to retire would suggest "from working " shooting aint working in my book .! just my opinion it matters not .

aris Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 He grew up on a farm. I've never met anyone who had grown up on a farm that hadn't done any work. He is merely retiring from competitive shooting. Apparently he will coach, and perhaps pursue other business interests in the shooting world.

GW80 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I reckon if any of us shot the shells he shot we'd be rerirng to. only so much the body can take. the mental strength alone for trap is immense even on amateur scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aris Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 What those trap shooters do is superhuman. I mean 198/200 for two simultaneous targets going 60mph :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
