    Womens 10m air pistol

    Good final.
    French lady lost gold on her last shot. I think her nerves took over.
    No such problem for the Chinese Winner with a superb last shot.

    I dont think its boring and am going to watch much more shooting.
    I suppose its because its something I am familiar with and can do a bit.

    I am hopeless all all forms of sport and therefore not generally interested.

    Amazing how accurate they can be... 10m is a long way when it's right in front of you!

    French lass ain't bad looking either

    The commentator referred to the pistols being used as ".177 calibre 'weapons'"... Bit surprised at that.

    I watched it too. I don't think its much of a spectator sport really. A bit like cricket to me. Nothing happens for ages, and then its all over!!! The accuracy and concentration is admirable though.

    Nice that he got the caliber correct. But "weapons"?

    10m Air Pistol

    Hmm I've just shot better than that in my back garden this afternoon with my trusty Benjamin 257.

    Sorry, no It was just a dream.

    Watched the Womans Skeet Final, now that is fun.
