Subscribe to our "Newsletter"!

Our Newsletter is gaining popularity around the shooting fraternity, thanks to our subscribers. If you haven't subscribed as yet, simply fill out the form on the "Newsletter" page, with relevant details to get on the mailing list.

Our goal, over many years, is to ensure the dissemination of any information is spread through websites, emails, newsletters or social media. But we cannot be sure that the information is reaching the mainstream population within our shooting fraternity. If you feel fellow club members may benefit from an article, pass on that information to others.

We do hope that the “new look” coaching committee within our target pistol sport, finds the time to rectify this problem and offer solutions.

Some members are regular shooters who simply wish to enjoy pistol shooting for what it is and are not too concerned with setting world class scores. However, some athletes may wish to improve to a higher level and will dedicate many hours to achieve this, but may be thwarted by the very slow progress they may be making under the guidance of a “coach”.

Hence it seems sometimes, even the better coaches, cannot hold these athletes, as they seek a "fast track" approach of gaining more points by changing coaches continuously and altering training programmes, simply to gain a very short term score improvement.

It is imperative athletes in our sport realise that it is a slow process to improvement and sometimes a change of coaching ideas may give an athlete a few more points in the short term, but long term, may still find themselves seeking that "magic bullet" to give them a top score.

Perseverance is required here to achieve good scores, plus an understanding of how to utilize training programmes over a long period to gain the necessary points in overall performances.

So, please enjoy these articles and we hope you gain information from what has been written here.

If you have any questions regarding training etc, please make contact us through the Book Sales page return email. Either myself, or a fellow coach will help with your inquiry.
