"Deja"this is exactly whats wrong with field target. The gear looks ridiculous and its way to specific, Hft is a lot more sober and im betting its growing way more than field target.

I actually prefer the american versions of this stuff






Dont know what you talking about mate...nor do many no doubt....in UK and Europe- Its FT , go, go, go ! Matter of fact - hardly any posting , or numbers, or forums covering HFT worldwide to my knowledge ..and I DO Scour the internet ;-) and know which is more popular..


TIME TO SOBER UP ..or wishful thinking about HFT or 'American Versions of this stuff'

... where's the proof likewise in the USA ? honestly - lets talk numbers, forums, postings, pics representing "HFT" in US etc...besides - I can quote you attendance numbers for last 10 years for World FT Championships in XYZ countries. But wouldnt have a clue about HFT locally, or internationally...(as its so small) ...or do you as you "are betting its growing" because you dreamed it ??


If this boils down to money and chip on the shoulder (ie: envy)

I can attest the majority of European shooters do NOT make up the 1% of society.... Dont conflate "looks" with elitism..loads of Brits and Europeans are honest hard working class individuals and will give you an earful regarding your lame attitude judgement about 'looks' (You hate the pics that bad ?) - It's all about saving and affording for the best equipment through a number of years; no newbie rookie comes into the sport with a $10K rifle & scope in their first season. I suggest you spend more time using Google Translator and open your mind up a tad more...and perhaps consider shooting Metal Silhouette to get an idea what's involved...

Nb: Field Target (WFTF - 12 ft/lb) is being looked at becoming an Olympic sport; what chance does HFT have ? do you know what's happening at grass roots level or just pounding the keyboard ?
