Thanks for sharing. Nicest fellow, always willing to lend you a CG2 or a Daystate 2000 or some other rig I would be afraid to drop.
You really need to get him to the his old "top 100 reasons for missing" in FT. Salt of the earth that bloke is.

Off-hand shooting is the typically the most difficult position. I love how David got right to it. Set parallax, load pellet, relax, lift and shoot without hesitation.

Do you really think that was poison ivy? It was on a tree right in the open park next to a picnic tab.
I didn’t get any itch, hope David didn't either!

That is impressive off-hand shooting. But I'm wondering what's going through his mind as he stares that target down before shouldering the gun?? I need to improve my pre-shot routine. 
Thanks for sharing that.

You really want to know what is going through Slade's mind? Careful what you ask for

That's exactly what I was thinking. And, how long did it take to edit out all of the cussing while David was shooting? Or maybe the cussing was internalized, hence the 1,000 yard pre-shot stare.You really want to know what is going through Slade's mind? Careful what you ask for
