Question of the Day: Who’s Your Favorite Professional Shooter?

To quote John Prine, why, there was never really ever any doubt. To watch Kirsten Joy Weiss shoot, well, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, I was driving my Ferrari F355B around Brands Hatch. I was dialed-in. Caning it. Hell for leather. Nine-tenths. Red mist. Ragged edge. I thought I was really something. Holding steady on a sweeping left-hander I caught sight of a flash of blue out of the corner of my eye. I turned my head to see a guy in a Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth driving around me, four-wheel drifting all the way. He raised his gloved hand and tipped his helmet. So much for my driving abilities, then. Same with Weiss. Or Miculek. Watching them shoot is a lesson in humility, and an inspiration for excellence. So who’s your favorite professional shooter, past or present? [NB: To post a YouTube video in comments, just cut and paste the url.]
