Right on Target...

Catching up on The Breda Fallacy this evening... I discovered I am not the only one applying yoga principles at the range.  Hooray!  Breda talks about "feeling how things work, breathing, and quieting the mind."  I agree wholeheartedly! 

My favorite yoga principle to apply at the range is "where your eyes go, your body will follow."   Gary C. from Michigan taught me about eye drills several weeks ago.  Once I saw the results I immediately linked his lesson back to Bikram Yoga.  This has helped me improve my accuracy tremendously. 

Guys, we hear you snickering.

"Guys, we hear you snickering."

Not really; some of us are a bit familiar with the principles of kyudo, which also applies to shooting firearms.

Hi Bob - Thanks for the comment. I'll have to checkout kyudo. For the record, John didn't find any humor in the "snickering" statement either :)

I Heart Jeannie Bueller Last night on Gun Nuts: TNG I brought up one of my favorite moments in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. In case you don't know the movie word for word like I do, here is the clip I referenced: Jeannie Bueller - I Need Help! When I find Ferris while flipping channels I still cheer when Jeannie kicks the crap out of Principal Rooney.

Tough Chicks, From a Chick's POV While I was catching up on my daily Pop Sugar gossip, I ran across this story about Anne Hathaway taking a self defense class. She was inspired by her tough girl character in Get Smart to learn how to protect herself. Good decision, Anne! What if your security guard has to pee? There are so many big screen tough chicks that have inspired us. Here's my list of favorites: Sarah Conner (played by Linda Hamilton) in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. There are so many good scenes. I am still wide-eyed over the pull-ups! Plain and simple, Sarah Conner rocks! Beatrix Kiddo/The Bride (played by Uma Thurman) in the Kill Bill series. She is John's favorite movie tough chick. Doralee Rhodes (played by Dolly Parton) in 9 to 5. Don't laugh! I love it when Doralee finally establishes her boundaries with the skirt chasing Mr. Hart. Other great tough chicks are Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raider and Sigourney Weaver in Alien. And, we all know how I feel about Jeannie Bueller. I know this is fictional, but we can find inspiration anywhere. Now it's your turn... tell us about your favorite tough chick.
