10m air pistol - it's just clicked and it's bloody weird!

[Inspector 71]

I've been self coaching for the past year or so and suddenly, I have clarity. It's nothing like what I thought. It's almost a black art. Hard to describe really. Consistent instinct is about the best I can do to summarise but it feels great when those clover leaves magically print around the ten. It's also addictive. Barely a moment passes without me visualising my sight picture.

I did say its bloody weird!

I came to 10m Air Pistol late in life and , like yourself , discovered the addictiveness of the sport .
I just wish I'd found it before my eyes , hips , muscles and everything else started drooping . It really is a great feeling to beat your own last score !
Let's encourage everyone we know to come and have a shot or two or three!.
It certainly beats sitting watching the box.

This fluid, are you sure it isn't in a glass

[I. J.]

Have you done your first 50 ex 50 yet? Thats addictive but at our place it means you have to offer to make everyone a brew.

[Inspector 71]

Errrrrrrrrrrr NO.

Now I have clarity, I can now practice, practice, practice.

I'll be up to see you in the new year.

All the best.

Just plain luck.

I've also found that the more I practise, the luckier I get. If you are not already, you need to get started shooting local and national postal comps run by your county RA, the NSRA and the Pollice shooting association.

the older I get the better I shot
as for clarity if I saw things better I'd emigrate

[Pball]

Yes very addictave
And also theres pistal comps run on airgunbbs well worth it

Unlike a certain Mr Jones, I have yet to cough up for a round of brews at my club. However, I am getting closer. Incidentally, give the cheapo H&N greens a run out. Our guns love them just as much as R10's for whatever reason.
