First bullseye shoot for my wife

[bman1962]

My wife shot her first competition in Elkhart yesterday afternoon. We had a great time with some really good people. It sure would be nice to see some more women come out and make a full team.

I have been shooting for many years, but just last month fired in my first NMC shoot. My wife has happily gone shooting with me on many, many ocassions but not to a bullseye match. I told her she wouldn't like it and I'm sure she would not. She likes to shoot things that explode, like skeet or better yet the exploding targets. Shooting paper does not interest her. That is how it is with my wife.

Good for you that your wife went to a match.

Excellent, bman! Good for her! Some day I'd like to do that. Have some work to do first though!

Is this NRA Conventional Outdoor AKA as Bullseye?

I'm glad she had fun. I agree more women involved in the formalized sports side of things would be nothing but win.

I can relate a bit. I can only tolerate paper targets for about 30 minutes before I get bored. Add a little friendly competition to it though and I'm good. Ironically, I don't like formal competitions. My personality is a little too competitive and I don't like to lose. I'm wired weird, I know.

It was NRA but was indoor 50 ft. rimfire only. I am pretty new to this but I believe they did 1/3 of a 2700 shoot? In a 2700 they would shoot the center fire weapon and the 45 along with the rimfire.
