kallend 2,026 #26 October 31, 2007 QuoteD'oh! But it was causing such excellent and satisfying outrage . . . Quick, someone post a statistic on guns! 50% of gun owners have below average shooting skills. DISGRACEFUL!... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

warpedskydiver 0 #27 October 31, 2007 I would bet on my life that my shooting skills are far better than yours. But of course that is not a fair comparison. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #28 November 1, 2007 I'd figure that between 30 and 40% of gun owners have below average skills. Maybe it's because most gun owners get training on it that a non-owner would never have. What you said is like saying "50% of the military has below average shooting skills." No, 50% is below average military shooting skill. I'm probably below average with a handgun, since I have only shot one once. But the Army considered me an expert with a rifle (40 of 40 twice on a pop-up range. Usually a 38. And almost always my misses were those suckers at 150 yards. I don't know why.) My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am going bass fishing tomorrow with my newly acquired baitcaster rig. Perhaps the prof can give me some pointers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
