Title: New addiction
Post by: anthonyjhallen on January 17, 2013, 07:45:12 PM
Well, its been awhile since I have been on here so I though I would show y'all what I have been up to.

I have a new hobby that almost as addicting as turkey hunting.  Almost..

Its called 3 gun, but also goes by multigun depending on which rules book and governing association you shoot under.  You shoot a stage on the clock that records the time that all shots are fired.  When you are done the final shot is you time plus any penalties you accumulate.

Here are a few videos from my biggest match so far

The "pros" shoot those stages in less than half the time it took me.  Its pretty amazing to see some of those guys in action.

The biggest reason I am posting is to recruit.  We need more people to get into the sport.  I do not want this to turn into a political tread but with what is going on these days we need all the shooters that we can get.  You see the types of guns we shoot and that is what is at risk nowadays.  So if this looks interesting to you let me know and we will get you to you first match.  Don't worry about not having the right gear.  Someone there will loan you their stuff.  I promise you.  When I started I just showed up to watch and ended up shooting the whole match with another guys gun and ammo.  If you google "rifle or pistol clubs" in your area they are probally running some variation of this.  Some even only allow .22s which is great for kids and is a blast to shoot on the cheap. 

Check it out.  Its something to do between springs.

I tried that and can see how it would be addictive.

Anthony, do you need to have a FB account to view the vids? I don't do FB so I might have missed the PLAY button.

If that is the case and you really want to promote "recruit", you should look into a better, more popular media outlet.

YouTube is by far the best and most viewed.

BTW, sounds like a lot of fun.
