Shooting clays is something I like to do occasionally. But I don't follow shooting competitive shooting. World records were never an interest. Trick shooting is only a sideshow to me. I do think Jerry Miculek is interesting. Love watching his videos. I always wonder how he got so fast. Now he seems slow after seeing this guy: Raniero Testa. Never heard of him until I ran across his YouTube channel today. Maybe I've been under a rock. Holy cow. Now that's some really fast shooting.

That guy is gonna shoot his eye out!


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Born with pretty good hand eye coordination and a whole lot of practice. I saw Tom Knapp in person a few times. Impressive to watch

I think this guy was pretty good with a Shotgun as well as being great as a 22 rifle shooter

Twenty or so years ago, Tom Knapp put on a demonstration at our gun club.
That man's skill bordered on the supernatural.

Nice man, too. He stayed and signed autographs for quite awhile. Signed my wife's upland vest and my cap. We still have them.
Another positive role model for our sport gone way too soon.

Great eye hand coordination for sure.
I love to watch people that have those skills.

Glocks, if you got a gun rest like that, I bet your wife would not like it, nor let you keep it....lol


I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

I saw Knapp shoot, he was awesome but I think this guy is better. Actually I was sitting in a bar in the DFW airport after the DSC convention, and Knapp walked in. He ended up sitting with us and bought a couple rounds of Bloody Mary’s. An interesting guy.

Smoked like a freight train. Same with Byron Ferguson.

After watching that, I suddenly feel terrible about my shooting ability.
