Are any other PWP involved with the shooting sports? Before PD, I enjoyed target shooting. I wanted to involve my son (now 11) in the sport. Also, I was looking for a way to resume the sport. My primary problem with PD is with stiff and slow movement, although I do have some problem with tremor in the right hand. I could somewhat control the tremor problem when I shot rifle from a prone position or from bench rest. (But the prone position is difficult for me to get in and out of.) I could shoot pistol o.k. from sitting position, if I used both hands. But I wanted to coach my son (and also shoot to), using the National Rifle Association Marksmanship Qualification Program. I received an excellent information booklet from Dave Baskin, who is with NRA Disabled Shooting Services: "Courses Of Fire For Persons With Mobility Impairment." It describes rifle and pistol shooting positions, using a table and chair. (Which the Spokane Rifle Club allows me to use.) Dave can be reached via the NRA web site.
