Congratulations to Wesley Laipply, NSSA Junior shooter from Westerville, Ohio, whose first-ever 100 straight recently won him a state championship. Wesley shot a perfect score in 28 gauge, winning gun honors at the 2015 Ohio State Skeet Championships.
Are you Practicing or Playing?
Many years ago, Henry Ford was quoted as saying something like, “Obstacles are those frightening things you see when you lose sight of your goals.”
I’m pretty sure he wasn’t referring to the shooting sports when he made this statement, butwith a little massaging it can, and in my opinion does, fit our sport.
When we shoot, are we just having fun shooting with our friends or do we have a goal? Are we practicing, trying to hit the ’10 ring’ more often, trying to hit low 5 sooner, or trying to hit that elusive rabbit?
In other words, are we working on that part of our sport that we as individuals need to work on, or are we losing sight of our personal goals and just playing?
