More Iowa Games

Adam decided to try his hand at the precision 10-meter air pistol at this year's Iowa Games. He started shooting after watching the Summer Olympics last year and has been practicing since then. This was his first competition which was more of a learning experience. In his age division there was one other competitor who happened to have shot internationally. But since there were only two in the division Adam still got the Silver (red ribbon). He scored a 210 out of 300 while first place scored 285. Adam will return for next year’s games, after much more practice.

Always knew you were a sharp-shooter!

I wonder if you might up your score if you took your hand out of your pocket. Just kidding. Good job Adam.

Good try, Adam. Military men are hard to beat at shooting. They always shoot bad guys and keep them away from us. Hunter
