Bat & Ball guys deciding he's too old?????Shame. I heard him recently (last month I think?) talking about starting his preparation for Rio early in the new year. Obviously had a change of heart. Good luck to him is what I say and he will obviously still be involved in coaching new DT shooters.
DT
If he has the sense to take up sporting, few of us "train". We just plug onwards competing, thinking it will all come together in a few weeks, before realising it takes a few years. But we do enjoy it on the way and there is no monotony.With the amount of training that was apparently put in to get him to the top he may not wish to repeat.
Like Southport that's a sandy place.Doesn't his coach, come from a "sandy" place? I don't mean Camber...
Perhaps his coach has suggested he enter Al Nad Sheba?
Broadly you are right. You can learn types of targets to master, but they will be just that bit different when you see them at your next competition. I remember practicing teal avidly to conquer my main technique failings. Then I didn't see one in my next five comps. It's a broad learning curve..I am ignorant of sporting but I don't see how you could train for and unknown target! Shooting Olympic trap disciplines you can train because the targets are known to be exactly what they say they are on the spec sheet ... you just don't know the order the will come in.
