“Shooter, you are on standby.” You feel the pressure build as you watch the shooter on line, running the course of fire silently in my mind, the positions, targets, and distances. The wind – that ever-changing wind. Repeating to myself, Position 1, engage Target 1, big then small, bolt open, dial next Dope, move to next position, engage, repeat. And remember to breathe, 90 seconds without oxygen, not good – just saying.
“Shooter, you are on line, do you understand the course of fire?”
