I didn't know there was such a sport, but take a look at the photos and TV link. The athletes are using air rifles, outdoors, at reduced biathlon hit/miss targets. It is phenomenal to see the strenuous work and dedication required to ski - some with only upper body strength (on "chair" mounted skiis), others with one or NO arms to pole. Study the photos and see the modifications required on the rifles, including the obvious one that they are REPEATING air rifles. After seeing this, I'll try not to complain about a bad day ever. Coach Paula.
Thanks for the links
Very impressive.
We have some shooters like these in our club but they are not at the same level of skill
A good picture of the life for us.

Thanks for the link. This made my day! These folks are more than just an inspiration to the disabled. They are an example to us all, as to what one can accomplish when one has the drive. Mind over matter...mind over matter...mind over matter!
