Apparently, they do get people to shooting.

We've got a match coming up next month that I tried to get a friend from work to shoot with me. The match is an all day event with over $40,000 on the prize table. Every shooter will go home with their entry fee in prize table stuff, at least. I asked several times for my friend to sign up and he wasn't ever interested.

But he did sign up for a zombie shoot. He's paying nearly the same fee to shoot at exploding zombie heads and scary looking targets for two hours.

So apparently, the zombie craze is a motivator to get people shooting. I don't get it, but he's genuinely excited about it and I'm excited for him. He even (gasp) went to a range and practiced this week.

I'd always heard folks say that zombies got non-shooters shooting, but had never witnessed it.

I am against anything that attracts more shooters.

You shut up.

While you we're off gallivanting around on vacation I had to handle Pistolero business all by myself.

Well for some more exciting news along those lines, the new issue of Zombie Nation is out. Don't know yet if it will live up to the first one.

I've always been a zombie movie fan. But this zombie craze in the shooting sports is getting old.

That's gotta be worth at least 6 bucks.

Was that ballistic duct tape on them? How can you put a price on that?

After I ordered them, I set them on the counter. My lab found them and used them for a chew toy.

I had to improvise, but they're quite comfy.

I think it's appealing to young people. I think it also serves as a good justification for the closet wannabe gun owners moving in PC circles to justify owning a gun. "It's just for zombies, really."

I fail to see how its really any different than cowboy action shooting. Its an excuse for people to have fun nothing more nothing less
