That's cool as heck and nice shooting.

On your AR it looks like your support hand thumb is riding on top of the handguard. Is this how you hold your rifle?

That's some nice shooting. In retrospect, I'm somewhat glad I didn't get video of all of my attempts at the stages.

That camera is definitely a cool piece of kit. It would be great to have that, combined with someone following with a chase cam, and (in my dream world) a couple of video cameras placed downrange throughout stages. Given enough coverage, you could edit together some excellent videos.

Mac Attack,

Yes, I do that sometimes. It allows my index finger to essentially point in the same direction as the barrel, and incidentally, it also rolls my wrist down similar to what I do in my pistol grip. When prone (with bipod monopod) it allows easy vertical control of the tube.

Justin,

I'm with you-- it's just a matter of money and manpower to run everything. And then the inevitable video editing hell later. (Can you tell I'm not an A/V geek?)

Zak - what type of cam are you using? And if you don't mind me asking how much does one cost?

I'm using the VIO POV.1 (http://www.vio-pov.com/). Market price is about $680 right now. There are cheaper systems, but none with a similar level of features & integration.

I wish I would have had that cam on a bear hunt just a week ago.
