Olympic Sport - Air Rifle

One of the many medals my daughter won in Junior Olympic Shooting Competitions. This one is a GOLD State Championship Medal won in three-position air rifle. Shooting a 10-ring bull's-eye, which is the size of a lead pencil point, with a 4.5mm pellet at 10 meters requires the utmost in skill, determination and mental discipline.

 

A special shout-out to Ginny Thrasher, USA Gold Medalist! SHE SHOT LIKE A GIRL, MADE IT LOOK EASY, AND DID IT STANDING UP!
