2018 Toy Drive |
Winter Classic & Annual Christmas Toy Drive
The toy drive was a huge success!! We received approximately $3,000.00 worth of toys and $220.00 in
gift cards.
The toys were collected from our clients, members and the Calgary Fire Fighters, through their toy collection. A special thank you to Gord and Joanne Robb. It's become quite a tradition and a way to give back to our community. Thank you to everyone who participated and make this effort so incredible. This year everything was donated to the Carstairs Lions Club for their 2018 Christmas Hamper efforts.
This year for the Winter Classic we had a great turn out of shooters, braving the cold and snow for this annual event. Congratulation to Shawn McNeil with a HOA score of 90/100.

Pre Shoot Planning
As shooters progress and improve, most find that the actions they take before the call for the target have a significant impact on their success in breaking the target. I have heard it said that up to 75% of targets are lost before the shooter calls for the target. I suspect there are other techniques that can help with shooter consistency, but I teach and advocate the methods advanced by the NSCA Instructor Program, namely, "Pre-shot planning" and "Pre-shot routine". There can be some confusion regarding these two important practices, so I will attempt to bring some clarity to each of these constructs - Pre-shot planning in this monthly installment, and Pre-shot routine in the next piece.
