Guest buster321c Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Anybody been watching the biathlon on eurosport ? To be honest , i aint one for standing shots , but these guys are good . It just strikes me that the women , on average , are better at the standing shots than the guys . I think that they are anatomically better suited to with the elbow on the hip than the men . Good how they can seem to freeze for long enough to take their shots . Any body do any form of target shooting ? If so , how do you find it varys from hunting ? Buster Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mad al 146 Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Nice to see this ain't it, these folk are never given a second glance and are under some serious pressure if they in with a shout. I think the big difference between this and a similar shot in a hunting situation is the clock. OK, you have to get the shot away quickly on live quarry or they're gone, but there is no set time for it, slightly different pressure I'd say Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buster321c Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Your right Al , talk about pressure , 5 shots in less than 10 seconds and there mostly on the bull !! Some very talented people on there i thought . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We've a PT Cruiser and to check the on-board PC, we have to turn the ignition on/off three times in five seconds that's enough for me ta very much The thing that does not come across in Biathlon though is the fitness level of competitors and the eye to target co-ordination required.......feckin hats off stuff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
