... Doesn't surprise me one bit as Ross took top IPSC honors in the world. '79 I think... Shooting a Pachmayer Gunshop built 1911/45 using 200 grain cast lead SWC's. One famous photo was him in mid air jumping off a 4 or 5 foot high wall w/45 pointed straight forward, finger off the trigger & off hand heading for the two handed grip, I figure to break the shot as soon as he touched down, maybe sooner.
I missed the date. Seyfried won the bronze in '79. He won the Gold in '81
Here's the photo that gunzo mentioned. I posted it on a Seyfried thread in 2011, but that link has died. Here it is from a new photo site:
.
The image is a scan from a photo in
The American Handgunner of March/April 1979, page 29.
American Handgunner later used the photo for its subscription ads. The original photo was made by Ray Odorica.
In the 2011 thread, Campfire member gmoats wrote that the photo showed Seyfried wearing his "lucky shirt", which he wore in competitions during the period 1978 through 1980 when we was US national IPSC champion.
