I earned a bronze medal this weekend

Ok, some observations.

You’re tipping your head down and is now at an angle (eyes not level) to the ground. This disturbs your inner ear and your body will not be able to hold you upright with minimal effort. So your position sways. From 9:30 to 4:00. Counteract this by emulating the other guy. Bring the gun up much higher tilt it left if you need to to bring the sights to your eye. BEnd at the lower back to counter the imbalance. Twist to the left slightly from the waist to add some tension in the position. Put the natural point of aim at the left edge of the 10 ring. You’ll find the wobble will tend to drift right as you aim the shot. Be quick on the trigger breaking at the first ten you see.

Your right leg is bent indicating your not evenly distributing the weight. This will exacerbate all of the other problems people generally have with standing. Move if your on uneven ground but you must build a position that evenly distributes the weight onto both feet.

Riflewoman,

You are very correct on my offhand position was really bad, and I am suprised,I did as well as I did.....I have printed off what you said, and with my air rifle, I am practicing just how you suggest....

Thank you very much

Aaron
