10,000 Hours

I read this book, here is a story of someone trying to do it. I think the quality of the 10,000 hours is pretty important and at the best levels of any sport, the differences in skills are small and the mental game is what wins.

I shot at Maywood Sportsman's Club Easter Sunday, St. Charles has a reciporcal membership agreement. I ran into some shooters that I haven't seen in awhile and watched the games being shot before heading home for Easter dinner.

Wall Street Journal Story


The WSJ has a good story above the mental game on Saturday. I shot Saturday and Sunday, we've had really windy weather and a drop back into the 30s and 40s. Unpleasant. McHenry Sportsman's Club had a ham shoot Sunday, I won a ham in the first race I shot and then couldn't hit much else.

Another shooting brake


1975 Ferrari 365 GTB/4. We've had some nice weather and I've been shooting a lot. My handicap average is inching higher thanks to higher POI on gun. Singles are still dicey but overall I am shooting better than I was last year at this time. Spring league gettinig ready to start.
