No spotter needed

Post by glen ring »

I love all people, but Jeanne is the only person I want spotting for me at a match. At the National scope match this year there was a gentleman that was a GREAT spotter and coach that helped me great deal, but at our monthly matches , Jeanne and I are usually too

busy keeping the match running to shoot and spot .

I know we all have a story about some well meaning spotter that really got us off our game and that we'd have been better off just shooting so.........

What is the "national scope match" ?

Spotters, whoever they are, get far less credit than they deserve.

Yea, it happens. I was visiting Utah last summer and shot at a BPCR match as a guest, I was paired up with a new shooter, and spent most of my time coaching him on what to do. When it came time for me to shoot I found his spotting skills non-existent, in fact - he was calling shots completely opposite of where I knew the shot landed. Shot my worst score ever at that match and would have been better off just being left alone.
