texasag93 Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Just getting out and shooting. Releaves stress, and makes you feel good to live in a country that allows us to own guns. Oh, and beating my friends at something that I love! TXAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead Buff Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 The recoil, the dust, the holes, the sun, the people, the tools to play the game, the individuality, the settings (mostly), the mutual respect, the safety, the rush, the warm brass, the perfect sight picture, the perfect run for you (even if don't win), the beer, the crowd, the BBQ, .....................the list can become endless....

Julien Boit Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Friendship ! Since I'm doing this sport, I met bunch of nice people from all around the world.

TriggerT Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 The company of the other shooters. Running a stage as well as I know I can. Helping others "See" what they need to. Running with guns, what in th world could be more fun that that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nik Habicht Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I LOVE that by this time next week I will have my new 6' longslide STI....Size does matter! ....and longer is better....... when it comes to sight radius.

Nik Habicht Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 I came because of death threats. I stayed because: Is there anything more calming than running a stage to the absolute best of your ability? Where else will a group of people be so ready to bust your chops when you screw up or say something that isn't well thought out? Where else will that same group of people offer to do anything so you can finish a match after your gun breaks? Where else will people let you be normal when your world is upside down? Where else can you compete with the best athletes in the world --- at the same event? Is there anything cooler than the look on a new shooter's face when they finish their first stage? Isn't the best pizza consumed after matches? If it wasn't for shooting, I might never see the sun rise..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
