- I'll share some perspectives on the subject of fast shooting - with a few words from esteemed lawman and all-around good-guy ... Wyatt Earp:

"The most important lesson I learned from proficient gunfighters of the era, was the winner of a gunplay usually was the man who took his time."

"The second lesson was that if I hoped to live long in the frontier, I would shun flashy trick shooting - grandstand play -
as I would poison!"

"In all my life as a frontier police officer, I did not know a really proficient gunfighter who had anything but contempt
for the gun fanner, or the man who literally shot from the hip."

- I imagine there were as many wannabes back then - as there are now.
