I was thinking about the stories of Jelly Bryce and all his shooting skills. I am wondering if it would be worth training my sons to shoot like that someday. My wife and I don’t’ presently have any kids, but I am expecting to have a couple in the next 2-3 years. I think part of the reason he could shoot so well was he started at such an early age. Why not start my sons shooting .22 pistols when they are 5 and then work up from there. I could get them a really nice 22/45 with one of those Pac Lite barrels we could shoot thousands of rounds for years with little cost. Then when they hit ten move them up to a larger gun and start shooting the action shooting scene.
There is always the chance that my sons won’t like shooting and that is something I need to prepare myself for. I see so many people that are the best at what they do, and most of them started at a very early age. Look at Tiger what age did he start putting? Last week I shot at a USPSA tourney and there was a kid shooting who was probably around 11. He walked real slow, but sure shot a lot of A’s.
