Awesome Post!

I did this in college, for 3 years, for the local U. I was a nobody 'cept someone with a hypercompetive streak.

I earned my letter within 12 months due to a great coach, 'cause after learning the mechanics, the rest was between the ears. (Mind over matter.)
The folks on my team were also leaders, and smart people. I'd have it no other way....

As an aside, I wish WVU would realize that Sport Shooting is the ONLY sport where guys and girls compete at the same time, with the same equiptment. It's the perfect Title 9 sport! ('cept to the femnazis and gun control freaks!)

Thanks for that thought. I'll pass it along by incorporating it in my talking points, so to speak.

I want to create a nationwide chain of learning centers with firing ranges and encourage parents to bring their kids. One might call them Cultural Recreation Centers.

It's actually kind of bad for Title IX. Men and women compete equally, so schools would be forced to give equal scholarships. Then the sport does nothing to address the imbalance that king football has over the rest of the athletic department.
