The Phoenix Airgun Club has launched marksmanship standards for scoring and ranking.
Throughout the years the airgun community has seen the need for individual rankings of shooters. Shooters who often participate in events understand the value of a score. However, scores may be fleeting with the pass of the next match. As such, we have identified benchmarks for shooter rank based on the familiar NRA nomenclature coupled with updated evidence-based standards to meet the growing scores seen throughout the sports.
Over the years, shooting not only has been a competitive sport, but an individual sport as well. Recognizing this, we have set forth the structure to meet this need. Simply put, what this provides is the ability for individuals at our club, throughout the nation, and the rest of the world the opportunity to grow and set personal benchmarks for their development as a shooter. In doing so, with easy, recognizable ranks known throughout the shooting community.
These standards can be seen on our website here.
We recognize that different powerplants and distances also have an effect on score. So, we have made variations on the thresholds based on demonstrated statistics.
As always, we look forward to the recognition of shooters based on their achievements in both their personal triumphs and in competition. These quantitative benchmarks in the development of skill gives the shooter incremental goals that are realistically obtainable both locally and internationally.
As Theodore Roosevelt said best… “Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty”
