Today Jacob had his first shooting match! He didn't think he was ready for it, but he was assured by his coach that he was. So, bright and early this morning, he got up, shoved down some waffles and flew out the door. Actually, there is no "flying out the door" when it comes to shooting. It takes at least 5 or 6 trips out to the car to take all his equipment with him. He has his gun, scope, shooting stand, outfit, glove, mat, sling, ammunition, under armour, shoes, tool kit, off-hand stand, kneeling pillow, (I know I missed at least 12 items in there) and last but not least, snacks!
Here is Jacob just waiting to shoot; it looks like he is in position four.
Here he is all suited up and ready to take aim and fire.
After shooting he got a break to eat some lunch with some of the other shooters.
So, now he is an experienced member of a USA shooting team!! Let the games begin!! (yeah, we just watched two weeks of Olympics...) TEAM JACOB!!! YAY!!!
