Target shooting can be very fun my friend. It can be a lot like taking photos and getting the photo just the way you like it. Shooting a gun at a target can take a lot of skill,a steady hand, and you get a burst of excitement when you hit the target just right. Some of the same skills required to get the photo are used to hit your target.
I personally love target shooting, but it can be an expensive hobby when you really get into it. I use to collect guns and loved shooting them, but since then I had to sell nearly all of them, and all I have left is my marlin 357 magnum lever action saddle style rifle.
But I'm enjoying photography these days, and with a camera I can even shoot in town or in my own house! Lol And besides it's a lot quieter! Lol

I agree. The first two shots were perfectly timed. Nice series Sam. Seeing women with big camera, lenses and now even guns is sexy.
Nice capture!

What a lot of people do not understand about shooting is that it is a skill. These guys are competitive shooters. They train and practice for years to get to a competitive level. I love to shoot guns. I don't hunt although I have no problem with it at all as long as the meat is eaten. I hate waste. My son and a friend of his and I went shooting a couple of weeks ago. WE destroyed a number of targets but most of all we enjoyed a common interest which is a great thing for a father and son. My wife was mad because she could not join us.
I would love to see guys like in these photos shoot.
This was / is the SASS (Single Action Shooting Society) Canadian Nationals - Don's right these are very competitive shooters from across Canada - I will be out tomorrow shooting some more(pardon the pun)
For folks that wonder what a SASS gun is:
This is a Single action revolver Know as the SAA(single action army) The US army adopted it in the mid to late 1800's. Is also known as the "Peacemaker" this particular one is made by Strum Ruger
