OK Yuk it up. This is my first submission and I know it sucks. I've never been a pistol person, but thought I'd give it a try.
Ya have to remember. I grew up shooting rifles, and I guess I can hold my own there, but I never really tried to shoot a pistol, seriously, before. I'll practice, I promise.
One thing I am pretty proud of. This is one handed, which is what I'd like to become proficient at because John Wayne never used two hands, and I hit the paper every single time! Man, I'm high fiven' myself already.
Maybe next week I'll score better. In the meantime, have a good laugh, on me.

Any good try is a worthy effort!
Air Pistol with one hand is how I shoot also, and I find it VERY challenging (hard!)!
Did you shoot this target at 5m or 10m?
Keep up the effort, it is very fun! Just wished I had more time to devote to the hobby! ; )

Hi Cliff and Welcome to the Target shooting forum, don't worry about not hitting the target and people having a laugh, the only ones who laugh are the ones who are afraid to shoot a target. If you had the best gun in the world and got a perfect score each time you would get bored pretty quick, but getting a resonable score with a run of the mill airgun is a lot more difficult. So good effort, it only gets better.
PS: Post scores in the same post as the sticky for the week, it keeps them all together.
Happy Shooting
