Looking to take my training to another level!
I have the been shooting pigs on a regular basis at 100m, but what other unique/challenging training techniques are also out there? Feel free to chime in with anything!

I've tried a method used in the movie "The Men Who Stare at Goats". I focus on the spot on the animal where the eye woud be (if there's a hit there it even makes it better) than concentrate on tipping the animal over by staring at it.
I'm saving a lot of ammo with this method.
It works best on the Rams probably becuase they are goats.

I watched that movie, and I must say it was one of the craziest movies ever. Did get a few chuckles out if it though.
And on a serious note, try to visualize the animal parts and aim at them?

Not at all, at this point all I can do its just try to shoot more than they are and hope for the best!

I could go with the big ball, little ball techniques of Jerry Tureau...but I tend to stick with the 'point shoot' pick a dot on the animal, (grass fleck, ppor paint job etc) and aim for that. Or as many have said, put a chicken at 100m, turn the animals sideways....etc.

I would need new glasses for that, I have a hard enough time seeing the Rams. Then again I could always try a 60X scope like Jerry has and try to catch them running... ;)

I will begin giving dribs and drabs of info on my fighter before Ridgway to tantalize your imaginations. I've got him out of those flip flops and into some 18" high afghanistanion marching boots. Govern yourselves accordingly.

A man just can't keep a low profile around here I guess.

BH..with those boots you should have no problem keeping a super high profile.

We have plenty of alibis up our vest sleeves, including the little known Americans with Altitude Disorder Act of 1998 (ADD) which will force Mr. Conner to raise the overhangs by 6 inches. We will either win fair and square or through the court system of Florida. Be warned.

From what we've seen of the court system in Florida we're not worried.

You should be very worried. In Florida, Huey could win by shooting everyone else on the line and still walk off with the trophy. (Huey, this is called poetic license, OK?)
