Focus

I posted this last year, but I think that it's a valuable read.

Troy Basham is the son of Olympic Rifle Champion Lanny Basham. Troy is a multiple National Champion in his own right as well. Let me know what you think of articles like this. I have others that I can link to as well.

This is an outstanding story, and one that I had heard parts of as a youngster.  Never had the full details, and sometimes the story changed, but the focal point was the same (no pun intended).

If you have more stories like this one, please continue to pass them along!

     Great article! I hope it will encourage more of us in Appleseed to focus on what we need to be focused on, which is the Mission.

      It's a tough Mission, maybe an impossible one.

      But we won't know if it is impossible unless we focus every ounce of our energy on it.

      T'would be a poor day indeed, if we fail, and have to say to ourselves "if only I'd worked a bit more, maybe we could've done it - maybe we could have made Appleseed the success it should have been..."

      And I'm sure I don't have to remind anyone reading this that the focus in this program is not improving your personal shooting skills (beyond 4 MOA, anyway), but on saving our country.

      It doesn't hurt to remind ourselves of that every so often...

Rather tends to give a whiner like me pause.
