Well, from what I can see, his technique is as technically sound and aesthetically pleasing as Obama's golf swing. Crouch and lean into the target from the waist. Bring the weapon to eye level. Don't roll back and hunch down to it.

Ready, aim fire. That’s apparently Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s idea of relaxation before returning to the campaign trail this weekend. Ahead of Saturday night’s ABC News-Yahoo-WMUR debate in New Hampshire Perry took a few moments to himself at an Austin-area shooting range.
“Just relaxing a bit @ Red’s Range before we leave for New Hampshire!” @governorperry tweeted Friday along with a photo of himself wearing a green sweatshirt and a baseball cap with a firearm in hand.
On the campaign trail, Perry, a staunch defender of second amendment rights, has not been shy about talking about his “long love affair” with guns.
“It was a long love affair with a boy and his gun that turned into a man and his gun, and it turned into a man and his son and his daughter and their guns,” Perry told reporters before a pheasant hunting trip with Iowa Rep. Steve King in October. “It’s, I think, one of the great American traditions is taking your family hunting.
And Perry often boasts about the time he allegedly shot a coyote who threatened his daughter’s dog while on a morning run.
“You know the second amendment allows me to go to jogging with my daughter’s dog over here and if it coyote comes out, I can take care of it,” Perry said at the Des Moines Register Soapbox at the Iowa State Fair in August.
In a 2010 KTRK interview during his gubernatorial race, Perry called the shooting range “my golf.”

Can you tell me what Santorums platform is about?
He just lurks in the shadows and lashes out when he gets called upon.
Whats his stance on “right to work”?
all we can do is do our best.. I have donated money and time to more than one anti Romney candidate.. my primary is in 2 weeks and then I’m done,, I have other major family matters and a life to be involved in after that.. it’s up to the others after I vote in the SC primary.. like I said I will do my part
Your vote is your own.
I guess so.. I have done my best to try to keep Romney from being the nominee.. I voted last time in SC for Thompson because I didn’t want Romney, MCCain or Huckabee
>”They want Perry to look like a gun slinging rube”<
As a gun slinging rube, I resemble that remark. #;^) bang!
I was a Thompson backer as well.
Pow!
oh btw I grab my elderly father make sure we go vote in the primaries to vote against Lindsey Grahamn.. but he is in deep with the Republican party down here.. we love Senator DeMint
ping (ricochet) LOL
You mean drop his left elbow? I would, but, then, I shoot modified Weaver. Maybe Perry is going for an isosceles stance...
“Allegedly” ain’t got nothin’ to do with it. That kill was confirmed by the liberal Austin media.
I noticed they also used the word “firearm.” Prolly cuz they cain’t identify what kind of “firearm” he was a-holdin’.
Idiots.
So you support a progressive and a big government candidate who, frankly, is mediocre. Good for you.
Calling Newt big gov’t, newbie? Are you h*ll bent on proving you are a ‘dumb as rocks newbie’? Seems he’s the candidate that drives you the most nuts. Good for Newt!
He is imploding even now! I bet that will make your progressive loving heart just burst. His issues have long been pointed out here, and they are NOTHING minor. You’re the noob for giving yourself over to RHETORIC over actual substance. It’s voters like you that might doom us to another pathetic candidate who’ll double cross us in office.
Don’t bring your propaganda pablum here, newbie. And don’t talk about voters like me. You already shown you aren’t a conservative with that talk. Now get lost - you are nothing but a romneybot - NO MATTER what you claim. You’ve been kicked off and back to try ‘another approach’ - your posts scream of that.
Okay, I’m the “Romneybot”, when your guy is pro-amnesty, anti-oil/gas (in his book and then, again, in his “fluke” with Pelosi), and many other various sins all pointing to a big government progressive “conservative”. Not like it matters though. That fool is imploding now and will soon be made irrelevant. Hopefully the real conservatives get better airtime.
Your propaganda puke is showing - get lost you lefty mittbot pawn troll.
[Perry] “needs to drop out and stop splitting the anti Romney vote”
Agree
You talking about chit..ha ha..
