[@biagiocozza8875]

Great video guys. At what distance did you guys shoot this. Looks like fun

[@1984lsHere]

Hey man, I've been listening to the 22lr podcasts for a bit now and learned quite a bit so far from all you guys. Mapleseed was definitely something introduced that I'd like to try, ty for this video, im going to try it with my (also) very heavy cz 457 mtr lol cheers

[@Womfat]

Cool, I am signed up for a Mapleseed course this year. Nice to see you kept your skills up.

[@proy9966]

It was awesome to shoot with you at the last mapleseed. Looking forward to seeing the video.

When I was obese, unhealthy, and pre diabetic my only hobby was shooting and still hunting and had a very good offhand aim. I can get consistent hits on a 1 inch swing target at 50 meters and on the bench with just a bipod I remember effortless shooting on targets up to 180meters away. And these are with barely customized rigs, only the triggers were worked on to give a lighter pull and on the semi a heavy entry level barrel was installed. I had to change my lifestyle though, now I’m on strict clean keto, I.F., jiujitsu(prepandemic), and I excercise a lot, I lost my steady aim as my metabolism increased and probably because of more caffeine I now take for my workouts. Even with highly customized rigs it’s now hard for me to do the things I did before. Miss the steady aim but I now feel better and had to learn the fine details on how to shoot better with technique and better equipment... still can’t do what I did before but I’d take health over steady aim since I can enjoy hiking and shooting more.😆

Hey Womfat, just a couple things, stage 4 starts in the prone position no transition from standing. On stage 4 target 3 I think the dropped shot was a 8 not 6 so plus 2. If you want a real challenge, shoot the rapid MQT, load 4 mags with 10rounds. No mag changes total time all in one string of 4 minutes. Start standing, stage 1, shoot 10, stage 2 transition to sitting shoot 5 and 5, stage 3 transition to prone shoot 3,3,4, then stage 4 stay prone shoot 2,2,3,3.

[@Womfat]

Oh good to know, we were going off our memory. And great idea for a challenge!

[@patrickrobitaille440]

Good job guys.

[@cgvhjm]

Not trolling but I thought it was called Appleseed not Mapleseed but I could be wrong

[@Womfat]

It usually is, but here in Canada the American Appleseed course was reworked and named Mapleseed for us.

[@cgvhjm]

@@Womfat Thanks for that info. Loved the video ! Hope to see more soon !!! Merry Xmas

[@Womfat]

@@cgvhjm Merry Christmas!!

[@hughtanner208]

also known as "CA seated". Made famous by some shooters who could do YOGA and "sit" in an almost prone position. Was happening in PRS shooting before the PRS existed

[@Womfat]

Yeah, Kevin mentioned he got it from somwhere. Very interesting!

[@Checo1]

what sling are you using ?

[@Womfat]

It’s one I made myself for the Mapleseed course. Works well for offhand shooting and has a quick length adjustment and arm loop.
