Young people become involved in rifle shooting for various reasons.
Most want to learn a fun sport they can enjoy for the rest of their lives. Others seek self-discipline, personal responsibility, confidence, opportunities to earn awards, and so on. No matter what the reason for involvement, the requirements for success soon become apparent. The good shooter must have superior physical control and concentration, good eye-hand coordination, along with good muscular endurance and flexibility. Shooters must control their minds to avoid distractions and to concentrate fully on making the perfect shot.
