Do You Shoot Airguns With Any Women?

Jump to latest Follow Reply
When I shot HFT in Florida at the DeSoto Airgunners, Linda McGee was a serious competitor. Sometimes her granddaughter would shoot with us and she was pretty good too. Now, here in Wisconsin, a young lady shoots 100 yd BR with us and beats us all. My daughter has shot with me occasionally. She's good and has learned well from the old man.

My wife shoots spring guns. I tried to get her to shoot centerfire benchtest with me for the last 25 years. Nope, would not even try it. She has great attention to detail, no doubt she would excel. Last year when I bought the first D75 I talked her into taking 1 shot. After about 20 shots she looked at me and said, you need to get one of these for you. I talked her into shooting one of our matches. At that match Al Duster who about 6 weeks ago broke the world Springer USARB record and myself tied for second, my wife won. If you shoot her for your lunch money you best bring a sandwich with you. You never know. Oh, she is 69 and never shot anything but a handgun, and very little of that.

@JEFFPPC That‘s a helluva a story. I just paid attention to your handle too. It’s clever. I like it.

In almost ten years my wife never came with me to the gun club not even as a tourist.
But she gravel biked with me ones - or twice - I guess, if my memory serves me well. I even wanted to buy her a new performance bike and she refused. And I wanted to buy her a snowblower, she refused again.
She is a gym workout girl @ 60 and shee is cooking for me since mid 80's.
Can't complain :)

@TnCnDn She is nice looking in the photo, but from what I've read she can shoot too. In a video I watched concerning a particular RAW rifle, it was said that she won a past PA Cup bench rest competition shooting a RAW HM model I think. I'd never heard of her prior to the video. I think it was an UpNorthAirgunner video. I was surprised I'd never heard of her considering that I don't read a lot of what sound like women's names in competition results. So I looked her up.
