I am a shooter. Like those that have gone before me, I am strong and driven, conservative, yet free. I am fiercely individualist, yet connected with my brothers and sisters in arms, family people at home and in the field. I compete with good spirit, yet bond with courage. I celebrate our successes and mourn our fallen. I am your friend or your neighbor. I am your mother, your sister. I am charged with a reverent responsibility and I never forget it, nor should you.
The above excerpt is from Brigid at Home on the Range in her superb piece entitled, "I Am A Shooter."
Do yourself a favor and go over there to read the entire thing. You'll be glad you did.
