Attracting Newcomers to Benchrest Competition

Guys,
I've edited some of the harsher exchanges here. Let's lighten it up.

I can say this:

1. I've been amazed at the ability of top BR shooters to adjust to hard-to-perceive and rapidly changing conditions. And they are masters at load tuning.

2. The most difficult shooting sport I've ever tried was silhouette. You're trying to keep proper eye relief on a high-magnification scope and the rifle's muzzle is dancing around.

3. Prone shooting,rimfire or centerfire) takes enormous powers of concentration, good fitness, and good eyesight. If you're a good prone/irons shooter, there's a 98% chance you'll do well in F-Class.

I'd say we should celebrate the variety of disciplines we have and appreciate the different sets of skills each demands.

I give you credit you fight the good fight. But why fight short range benchrest need no support. We are doing just fine. Only a fudd would come on and knock down another shooting Sport. You don't see David Tubb feel a need to come on to defend his Sport and downsize others. It is called mutual respect. You are right few if any BR guys go into another shooting camp and throw crap around.
